Being in our zone. We all look for that, right? How could I end this month long challenge, if not in Denmark? Not with anything iconic, or grandiose. Just a simple sunset on an even more usual sight. A nameless paved street, with one of the billions bicycles resting on sidewalks, waiting for the next…… Continue reading Z like Zone…
Yellow is a friendly color, when you are looking for interesting little things to photograph. Because yellow things stand out on almost any background. It screams to your eyes look at me! Me! Me! Meeeeee! LoOk At Me!!! Yellow birds, yellow flowers, anything yellow catches our attention. Yellow’s also a happy color. At least to…… Continue reading Y like Yellow…
I took over the prompt, as an homage to Nortina’s late ”One Minute Fiction” challenge. What’s the ”One Minute Fiction” challenge about? Easy. Each week I’ll provide a prompt to inspire you to write a very short story. The idea is to manage to type your whole story in a minute or less.

It takes only a couple of days to switch from one season’s pallet to the next. And then, all you…… Continue reading V like Vibrant…

Days when Chéri and I are off from work at the same time are pretty rare. When it happens, we try to catch up on stuff we need to do together. Like this afternoon, when we played barbershop in the bathroom. I’ve been cutting Chéri’s hair for years, and he was more than due for…… Continue reading This iz minz!
The concept of a treasure usually brings to mind wooden chests filled with gold coins and opulent jewelry. But to me treasures are much simpler things. Anything (well, almost anything) can become a treasure to me. It just needs to have a special meaning, come from an important place, a dear person, or be linked…… Continue reading T like Treasure…
I love light. Natural light, that is. There are moments of the day, when weather is clement, that grant us with a warmth that gives the simplest scenery the greatest look. When the sunrays are that flattering, I can spend the longest time staring and waiting for a good picture. Sunsets and sunrises are priceless…… Continue reading S like Sunset…
