The Real Thing, Backwards – Snapshot of the Day, No. 268

I woke up early with a headache this morning, so I decided to explore the settings of my new iphone upgrade. I mostly played around with the camera settings. I’m trying my hand at art photography again. Not bad, but I think I’ll stick with the 35mm.

There Are No Words – Snapshot of the Day, No. 267

I apologize for the same subject two days in a row – but this one HAD to be posted. I was working in the yard earlier today when I looked up and saw this scene. My first thought was, “What on earth is he looking at?” My second thought was: Where’s my camera? But IContinue reading “There Are No Words – Snapshot of the Day, No. 267”

Dim Bulb – Snapshot of the Day, No. 266

Actually, he’s not a “dim bulb,” at all. Murray is quite smart. He just looks dumb here. He had surgery on his eye and hip last week, so today was the day to get the stitches out….and to take off his lamp shade – or “Crown,” as we call it. He was waiting Not SoContinue reading “Dim Bulb – Snapshot of the Day, No. 266”

Pipes – Snapshot of the Day, No. 264

One of the storefronts I have photographed for this project – Buckle Co. – has bitten the dust. So, the new owners / tenants are renovating it. Or maybe Buckle Co. is renovating. I do not know. I also don’t know what the deal is with these pipe elbows. Why? How many turns will theContinue reading “Pipes – Snapshot of the Day, No. 264”

I had to go to the mailbox today, which is outside of the newspaper where I work, and decided to take the long way back inside. I could not help but notice what a gorgeous day it was, so I snapped this image as I made my way back in. Good thing, too. I probablyContinue reading “Skylights – Snapshot of the Day, No. 262”

Headless Elvis – Snapshot of the Day, No. 261

The question is: Was this Elvis statue purchased without a head?…. or did it get broken after it was bought? And why is it still being proudly displayed? Does it make it more valuable without the head? Hmmmm. I HAD to take this photo. I cannot stop laughing at the microphone held up to aContinue reading “Headless Elvis – Snapshot of the Day, No. 261”

Picnic Flowers – Snapshot of the Day, No. 260

Well, we didn’t actually go on a picnic. We just ate lunch out on the deck. But I like to call it going on a picnic. Since we live close to the Tennessee River, we sometimes see really cool animals. Today we saw an eagle flying over our heads. I ran to get my binoculars;Continue reading “Picnic Flowers – Snapshot of the Day, No. 260”
