A passion for photography

These are grape leaves but no grapes - go figure. They are very common near the ocean here in Florida. This is like a nature lesson...ha It has pretty red veins in it and the green is very warm. The things you find at the beach on a day when you just want to have fun with your camera! Hope you enjoy these as much as I enjoyed taking them -  

Beach pipe

Yes, this is an old rusty pipe that I thought had GREAT texture and some push and pull in it that gave it a dynamic look. This was in the parking lot at the beach. What do you think? 

Enjoying the Beach on Sunday!

Even though this is not a photo of people we all know, just thought I would share some "pretty" pix that I took yesterday when I went on a photoshoot just for fun. This is Satellite Beach on the East coast of Florida and it was a GREAT day. I have not done any manipulation (photoshop) to any of these (yet) Learning about my new Nikon D70 SLR camera. And yes it is HOT here too! Plus we have that humidity thing going...

Seu Jorge Concert

Hi everyone!!
So my man went out and got a bunch of front row tickets for a group of us to see seu jorge, a brazilian singer/songwriter who was the black guy with the guitar on The Life Aquatic- Steve Zissou. It was a total blast, they were fantastic, drummers, etc. It was me and Tom, his son and fiance, and some other friends.

Virginia City NEVADA, SATURDAY 6/08/06

This is Justin, his Father Wally, and me enyoying a reunion in Virginia City, where we met 32yrs, ago! We went back to the Cabin in the Sky, where we met each other. I was a cocktail waitress, and he was a new bartender from Nashville, Tn. What a pair, well ,between the Southern acen't and the New England one, it was a riot. It seems like only yesterday. We had a lot of fun times up there, and wonder how we ever made it out alive! Happy we did, as we have Justin and a wonderful grand son, Jacob and a beautiful daughter-in law. It was a fabulous and bittersweet trip down memory lane.


 

HAPPY 4TH IN THE SIERRA NEVADA MOUNTAINS!!

THIS IS ME,DON,BARBARA (MISS SENIOR NEVADA) AND DODY IN GENOA, NEVADA! We are enjoying "POPS" in the park. Silent auction for ART, etc. brought a picnic basket with wine, chicken and all the stuff for a wonderful celebration in the mountains! STROLLING VIOLINIST'S beautiful inspiring music, truly an ALL American 4th! Meet me there next year, ok!!!


 

Leslie and lightning!!

Leslie has had a computer malfunction, as lightning hit her area,
and "kapoof" it hit her system and it now is in the computer hospital in Key West for repairs!..She actually has had a breakdown of sorts as she is having withdrawel pains from not being able to BLOG!!!! Haha, so she will be back soon with more interesting pix and news soon!!! Thanx!!

THE CONTESSA...aka as Aunt Carol, and Nana

Also I have more pix to publish, but having a time with Picassa..it must be me, I am sure!!!

Oh yes, here is the shuttle shot I promised - if you have xray eyes you can see it behind the clouds - Kind of awesome really to have seen it on TV and the successful launch that took place. WE always hold our breath here that everything turns out ok - If the clouds weren't there, we would have seen a bright star in the daytime, making its way across the sky and the smoke trails when the main engine (or whatever it is) falls off. I am constantly amazed by this whole thing and have seen a number of launches, both in the day and the night (most dramatic) -  

WEll this was FOURTH of JULY at Gloria's - The lady on the left is Kay - she is 92 and so full of energy she put us all to shame! The belly dancer is Jackie - she is a teacher (like a real public school type teacher who is going for her doctorate in English Literature -) and she was teaching us to belly dance! It's great exercise --- the photographer, MOI, took the pictures! (So I am not in any of them. ) The party was on the Fourth, fireworks all around us in Orlando, FL. The lady on the right in the pink is Gloria whose house we were at. It was a blast to say the least!
