well marty is a dog. but who are we? who are you? can I (or anyone) capture you (or anyone else) in a photograph?






I don't know the answer to this question. I was just thinking outloud.

insomnia

I've been suffering from insomnia lately.... or restless soul syndrome. It's primarily because I'm out of town and missing my husband. Today involved a lot of photo taking of children and I should be completely passed out but for some reason... here I am, typing something very boring that no one will ever read. I thought I'd post my favorite shots from today. Good people, good moments, and then there was this cat.

industrial overlook

I was in West Seattle this morning taking in the views of the shipping yards, and TRIED to capture what I could see across the water. Pardon the haze. If you zoom in on the ocean photo you can see seals barking.

ferry to kingston

I can't imagine how much I would hate taking a 30 minutes ferry ride home every day, but watching the Kingston ferry from Sunset Ave sure is nice. It's very peaceful at a distance and extremly loud and windy when you're onboard... like life.

Ferry and my tabblo link are below.

waiting for sunset

I think that every day should end by watching the sun get swallowed up by the horizon. It was especially beautiful today over the water. The rest of today's shots are here:

monkey puzzle & a bull dog

So here I am. Unemployed and in Seattle taking photographs of random things. I'll attempt to diversify my subjects and locations in the next few days. The weather is beautiful and I'm afraid that at any moment the rain drops will begin to fall.

The monkey puzzle tree is interesting. Araucaria araucana (Pehuén or Monkey-puzzle) is the hardiest species in the conifer genus Araucaria. It is native to central Chile and west central Argentina, and is an evergreen tree growing to 40 m tall and 2 m trunk diameter. It is an example of a living fossil. It is considered as the national tree of Chile.



The bulldog is named Greta and I really love her!
