Squirrel Appreciation Day

Hello, world!

Apparently Jan 21st was squirrel appreciation day, which sounds like every other day in my life.

However, in order to honor my friends in the backyard I took a few photos.

Holding my breath, approaching as quietly as I could, yet 20X zoom wasn’t quite enough.

Is this how squirrels see the world?

Squirrels love nuts; all that’s left behind is nut hats like this one.

Paris in August

I finally got around to sorting the pictures from my Paris trip this summer. It really was a dream come true to visit the city.

Take a look at selected August photographs.

The DC area got a ton of snow in the last couple of days. And while I always say I hate the snow, it was nice to go out and play. My camera got it’s first snow day, and the Hugin panorama software got a workout too.
