Last week, I did a post featuring visual quotes from three of my favorite authors (my pictures, their words). Two of my readers kindly left their favorite quotes, and a light bulb went off over my head. I asked myself, "Hey, how about doing a Quote Challenge as the thing for National Photography Month?" I...

WW – Dark Taurus Moon
Friday May 6th brings the Dark Taurus Moon. While some day I might be able to remember my Astrology class teachings well enough to postulate planetary predictions myself, today is not that day.

MM – National Photography Month
May has officially been National Photography Month since 1987. Here's a blurb from the sadly-quiet-since-2014 official website, The American Photography Association.
