Latrodectus-Pallidus

Well, it has been SOME TIME since, I have last uploaded.  I have noticed a significant drop in the will to phogoraph the usual bird/ animal, landscape/ nature scenes...especially, since having moved from such a beautiful region and temporarily back to the flat, boring, nothing.  I've almost always had the inspiration of nearby mountains and other geographical interests most of my life, whether I was photographing at the time or simply, just going for a drive/ walk.  I decided that, my most recent interest has been directed toward celestial bodies, therefore, the next batch of images I work on, will be from the Astrophotography point of view

Oh how cryptic! Oooo... Well, more like "heart warming" ;) The coming of Fall is near and you know what that means...Yes! Pumpkin-Spice Chai!   Oh! and throw in a dash of Pacific Northwest fog/rain, a one year wedding anniversary (how many people can say that?), a good ol' fashion black Halloween tree, pumpkin spice candles, pumpkin cookies, pumpkin guts, and numerous pumpkin patches with encircling vultures (they go bananas over rotting pumpkins), and you have the recipe for perfection. If none of this tickles your fancy, then I don't know what does and it is, perhaps, advisable that you seek to buy yourself a dead, withered, old, black C
