Happy New Year!


(Click on the thumbnail for the bigger, better version)

Happy New Year to one and all.

I have been fighting a bug for a couple of days and guess who's winning. I'll be back soon—after my head and stomach stop spinning in opposite directions, with photos and cheery posts about what's happening in Bear Valley Springs.

I had been doing some reviewing of good old 2008 and thinking about what 2009 holds. While 2008 ended in what was not exactly the difference between a bang and a whimper—it was more of a dull thud, I am looking forward to to this new kid. I don't make hard and fast resolutions, but I am big on dreams and fantasies of what the coming year will bring. Mostly those mental images revolve around light, cameras, and lenses. But, that's just part of the bigger picture. I have already dreamed enough stories to fill up two years.

  2. Paul - Thank you for all the good wishes. I know that 2008 has been a challenging year, and I hope 2009 brings you travel that you choose. By the way, don't think that I won't keep track of your travels and that you will be able to sneak by me if you come to California.

  4. I wish you good tiding for the coming year. Having the camera and lenses is one thing, better still the resolve to use them. Onward.
