Attempting HDR
Day 265 – HDR – high dynamic range – it’s a new thing for me. I will keep experimenting with this technique. Check out www.binarycafe.com for great tutorials and advice.
Love, Dad
Day 264 – Letting someone love you the best way that they know how is better than not letting them love you at all.
Morning Flower
Day 263 – Morning light shining on flowers in the kitchen.

Day 262 – The secret to having it all, is knowing you already do.
Evening on the Wire
Day 261 – The birds that migrate through this area find some room in the tree line. But some birds like a better view from the guide wires of the large cell tower.
Thrill Rides
Day 260 – We spent the day at Great America. Watching my guys ride those roller coasters made me think about all the thrilling rides life has for us. Some times you get to strap in and fly through the air. Sometimes a parachute opens up and you have a soft landing. Other times, life is just a crazy series of ups and downs and your only safety gear is a light heart and a good sense of humor.
Water
Day 259 – We got quite a storm today. It knocked out the power at our local theater right in the middle of a good movie. But we need the rain, so that’s okay.
Seagull
Day 258 – I was going through some old photos today and I came across this one. We were at the Lincoln Park Zoo and the seagulls were out near the food court looking for lunch. They are quite used to people so it’s possible to get fairly close. But don’t expect them to pose if you don’t have a tasty morsel for them.
Black-Eyed Susans
Day 257 – The last of the black-eyed susans in the garden. The garden continues despite this hot, dry summer.
