Typically, I don’t get to Holiday in Halifax until just before it starts (around 4pm). This year, since I’m now in Halifax, I ran down early to see…

Holiday Greenery

Some people do such a nice job with decorating. If I tried to put together something like this, I think it would all just fall apart. My mom…

Exploding Pumpkin

I woke up Saturday morning to find my pumpkin had exploded over night. It’s pretty cool how it split down the sides. I guess sitting outside in the…

Happy Halloween

This is the front door to my aunt and uncle’s home. It always looks so nicely decorated in the fall. All the colors come together so perfectly.

Wooden Door

Knock, knock. “Who’s there?” Sorry….I don’t have a knock knock joke for this image. If there had also been a wooden shoe in the photo, I could have…

House Wren

My childhood bff had an antique/art sale last weekend at her parents house (sadly they both have passed away in the last 6 months). I spent many, many…

Boston

I’m not sure what happened to the Spring weather (it’s only in the 40s) but at least things are blooming in Boston.

Window Box

With the weather getting a little warmer in the mornings I’ve stopped cutting through the Copley and Prudential buildings and have been walking outdoors to work. I walk…

Fill Flash Practice

A friend of mine has asked if I’d take pictures at his wedding. Every once in a while I like to give myself a challenge. Apparently, I must…

Door Handle

Came across this door on one of my very few walks during lunch. I really liked the look of the old handle. It’s actually one of the many…

Somebody lost their kitten mitten (it reminded me of the song Three Little Kittens Nursery Rhyme). Hopefully, they won’t need it anymore this season. Still cold in the…
