When looking for a blog link to share for last week's Monday Blogs tag on Twitter, I bumped into my Zazzle greeting cards featuring my feathered friends for my mother post, from last January and thought it might be fun to run those dozen photos through the Deep Dream Generator for a Sublime Sunday post...

Day after the 2022 Nor’easter
Usually when I take pictures of amazing nature, I make a point of keeping non naturey things like houses, cars, lawn furniture and such out of the frame. However, to show how much snow Mother Nature dumped on us during yesterday's Nor'easter/bomb cyclone/blizzard event (geez, the weather people are getting dramatic with their verbiage...lol), I...

Trying to find my bird photography mojo again – hits and misses
I'd swear that maybe two seconds ago, it was about to be the new year and now all of a sudden, we're over three weeks into 2022. I'll admit I've been in a bit of a funk over the past few decades years months weeks, but now I'm trying to shake it off and finally... Continue Reading →
Photography Lovers End of Year Contest – My Favorite Shots from 2021
When I first saw the Photography Lovers End of Year Contest Announcement post over on Hive, I knew two things - I'd have to enter my favorite shots from 2021, and given how many photos I've taken over the past twelve months, it would be tough to pick my favorites. I decided to do like... Continue Reading →
Silent Snowy Sublime Sunday Shots
In a lot of ways, it doesn't feel like Christmas will be here in less than a week. However, Mother Nature decided it was high time she decorated for the holidays, so yesterday afternoon she started in with the fluffy white stuff & didn't stop until this morning. After our boy headed out to drive... Continue Reading →
Trees At Dawn for @parul2411’s #ThursdayTreeLove
Yes, it's Friday. I actually had this post about ninety percent done yesterday morning - I'd gone out first thing to get some photos of the trees at dawn, then had a rare couple of hours of quiet to edit the pictures and get things ready to post. But then distractions popped up (in the... Continue Reading →

Reminder of a childhood tree for @parul2411’s #ThursdayTreeLove
Back on November 11th, I was all set to get this reminder of a childhood tree post done on both my WordPress and Hive blogs, since this is a bloghop hosted by my WP blogging friend and it was supposed to be the next edition. However, not too long before I was ready to publish... Continue Reading →

A Ghost Story for a HiveBuzz Halloween Trick or Treat badge
Just like last year, I'm posting a ghost story to participate in the @hivebuzz Halloween Trick or Treat badge. And again just like last year, I'm telling a tale from my days in the mid 1980s that I was a tour guide for the Hammond Castle. Yes, I grew up in a small town in... Continue Reading →
Fall foliage after the storm for @parul2411’s #ThursdayTreeLove
This past Tuesday, we got hit with an unexpected (at least, I didn't hear anything about it) Nor'easter. After a handful of power flickers & cable outages, we quickly realized the intense rain storm was a bit out of the ordinary. We were very lucky that even though the one of the biggest power outages... Continue Reading →
