  • Blue Moons

    It’s New Years Eve, I’m not going out for another hour and the dogs are just back from their walk. Not sure how to describe this year just past. Lots of changes, some terrible and some very good. 2009 ends and 2010 starts on a blue moon. It seems as good a thing as any…

  • Coming and Going

    Sometimes I walk when the ground has turned white And I can’t quite decide which way should be right. With the wind at my tail I do like to run, And head all the way back, the way I’ve just come. The other option’s to pounce with all my fur flowing, Leaving the deep prints…

  • Snuggley Warm (Pentax K-x First Impressions)

    I’m in love with this camera, it’s amazing. I am trying to remain objective and thoroughly test drive it this week, but I love it too much already! For those who don’t know, I eventually bought the Pentax K-x, and all of the photos in this post were taken with the kit lens (18-55mm). The…

  • Shopping Spree (?)

    It’s not really a spree. It was quite well planned, really.
