SmugMug > popular all-time > When you're driving down the street in a 1950 Cadillac and come across a gas station like this -- of course you have to stop for a photo op!

SmugMug > popular all-time > 7-6-2009… International Sunset I have driven past this truck for years…it is off Hwy 5 in northern California. On private land, but accessible. Somewhere along the way someone got really artistic on it… I stopped a couple months back and took some shots; day was overcast and light was diffused. Stopped for a couple more pictures on the way back from Mom’s yesterday. Evening light, amber glows… While the truck was really my subject, I like the wide shot that took in the surrounding scenery…
SmugMug > popular all-time > 17.6.09 - Caught in the spotlight This is another shot from Tuesday night, but I was still working on it last night. The guy was walking his dog, and I suddenly realised that he was going to go through the glare from the floodlights. I was disappointed with the original, because I didn't have chance to set it up properly and there was some camera shake. I decided to go with an artistic feel rather than a natural one and I hope this works. I used the watercolour filter in Elements on top of a B&W conversion and a simple frame. Thanks for the wonderful comments on yesterday's Cathedral shot, it is one of my favourite views and I never tire of it. This was taken at the opposite end of the Cathedral, where the lawns and trees create a very different atmosphere.

SmugMug > popular all-time > Fifteen years ago today, Larry and I lost his mother. We always think how much she would've cherished Johnny and Maeve -- and wish she could've been part of their lives. She's definitely still missed. (April 13, 2009) "The future destiny of a child is always the work of the mother.” ~~ Napoleon Bonaparte
SmugMug > popular all-time > It's been a busy weekend with family and friends -- as you can tell from the fact that I'm just now posting my photo from yesterday, and today is almost over. Thought I'd leave you all with this photo of Johnny kissing his baby cousin Maeve before I hit the sack. Tomorrow is going to be busy too .... but I will try and catch up with you all soon! Enjoy your weekend -- that's what it's there for. :-) (March 27, 2009) "Spread love everywhere you go: first of all in your own house. Give love to your children, to your wife or husband, to a next door neighbor... Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of Gods kindness; kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile, kindness in your warm greeting." ~~ Mother Theresa
SmugMug > popular all-time > I'm sure you all know what's happening one week from today ..... and you know the Murrays will be enjoying a pint or two with loads of family and friends. ;-) Here's a tidbit about this particular Great Lakes beer: the dashing gentleman pictured on the label is the grandfather of the Conway brothers, owners of the brewery. He was a Cleveland policeman, who came here from County Mayo. Perfect for their Irish ale, don't you think? Slainte to all our friends here on Smugmug!
