For this Prince of mine I have considered many a names: Barclay, Gowan, Callum, Toran, Margadale, Marcus, Laine, Innes, Nachton, Lyall, Dunyvey, Tain, Barley, Haggis, Glenburgie And considered many suggestions: Peat, Ozzy, Fergus, Farquhar, Shamus, Duncan, Dexter, McTavish, Cosby, Milton, Angus, Hamish, Ollie, Piper, Charming, Edward I have a name in mind…. If you think of some other name, leave a comment. Keep in mind the Princess as our two Scotties will be called “Zoey and _________, the Royal Heirs”. This Prince will be named by sunrise tomorrow. But I give y’all an opportunity to chime in with a poll of a narrowed list: Continue reading Prince What’s His Name

Amazing Grace for Lincoln
We got to see the FGs on Saturday. And of course I took about a bajillion photos of him. But it was this video sent by the FS yesterday that topped anything I could photograph…. ‘We sing Amazing Grace right before we go to bed…’ We’ll do pictures with the next post.

The Front Cometh
A cold front rolled through Fort Worth this afternoon. I am always impressed with the intimidation of nature…maybe that’s why I’ve always wanted to storm chase and by all means, fly into the eye of a hurricane! In the meantime, this will have to do…. Same photo, but with a bit of iPad Snapseed app tweaking. I do like this photo editing much better (although the original was somewhat impressive in it’s own right)…the photo takes on a more angry persona in keeping with an approaching, imposing storm front, don’t you think? BTW, this photo was taken with my iPhone, … Continue reading The Front Cometh
Weekly Photo Challenge: Beyond
Since I posted so many dag-gum photos last year, I went back a a couple years and found so other photos that might…could work for this week’s photo challenge. At least that way, you long-time followers may have forgotten about some of these. And you know me, I cannot share just one photo: Continue reading Weekly Photo Challenge: Beyond

Sundown with the iPhone
These pictures from yesterday aren’t too bad considering the pace of a brisk evening walk, a quickly draining iPhone battery, and an impatient leashed Scottish Terrier (that would be none other than the Princess Zoey). I used an HDR app on the iPhone to take these photos. Ya know, maybe I should sell my big cameras and use my iPhone camera more often (yeah right). :) Continue reading Sundown with the iPhone
Weekly Photo Challenge: Illumination
52 Sky (maybe)
Why is it that I never tire of these kind of photos? Is it the story told of the simplicity of life, or is it the simplicity of the photograph….hmmmm, I wonder Continue reading 52 Sky (maybe)
52 To-Do’s
This starts the first (full) week of 2013 and my vacation last week had my brain aching for photo idea challenges to follow the Project 365. Instead of all those daily photos like last year, I’ve come up with a “P52” self-challenge, aka a “weekly post”, list of ideas below. Now by no means am I thinking of doing all these, but ask you guys “what ‘cha think?”. And the poll feature (that I’ve never used before) could decide my (and your) fate for the coming year…. So let’s say something like, oh I don’t know, maybe the top 3 … Continue reading 52 To-Do’s
