Comments, opinions and observations on.whatever. Tuesday, August 25, 2015. I just cant seem to get my fill of grand old cars. I know Im not the only one because all summer long there are car shows everywhere! Tuesday, August 25, 2015. Tuesday, August 4, 2015. I enjoy the thrill of the hunt, the moment when I have my prey in my sight, the thrill of knowing I have got the shot. I have been on safari, I have seen and shot the lion. But I did not take it’s life. I am a photographer. A regal pose - Kenya.

On safari, our guide Jonathon told us how he killed a lion with his spear and showed us the scars on his leg where he was attacked. A regal pose - Kenya. On the Masai Mara, Kenya. To Native Americans they were t...

Positively Tuesday: December 2014

Comments, opinions and observations on.whatever. Tuesday, December 30, 2014. Positively HAPPY NEW YEAR 2015. 160;Its that time of year again. Time to start thinking about those resolutions. Like Janus, the Roman god with. Two faces who looks at both past and future, we tend to do the same. Janus presided over the beginning and ending of conflict, war and peace; the doors of his temple open in time of war and closed to mark the peace. A god of transitions, journeys and exchange.

Positively Tuesday: November 2014

Comments, opinions and observations on.whatever. Tuesday, November 25, 2014. Positively NOLA - The French Quarter. Welcome to the French Quarter! As I wandered the streets of the French Quarter on my recent visit I was so thankful that it had survived. What a tragedy it would have been to lose all of this – this history, this architecture, this joie de vivre that is. It is not nicknamed The Big Easy for nothing! I had been to. Twice before – both times pre-Katrina. It had been too long. City of Thieves b...

Comments, opinions and observations on.whatever. Tuesday, July 21, 2015. The blueberries are ripe! About a 45 minute drive from where I live is a blueberry farm. When the berries are ripe, people descend on it like birds. You pick your own and pay for what you pick. Is so named because they also raise ‘christmas’ trees that people can come and cut on their own.). And they are very good to snack on. And if you’re into smoothies…. Ok, ok. YES. I love blueberries. Navigating through the mud. Blueberries hav...

Positively Tuesday: Positively Paint Nite!
http://maureenblevins.blogspot.com/2015/06/positively-paint-nite.html
Comments, opinions and observations on.whatever. Tuesday, June 16, 2015. For Mothers day my youngest daughter Rachel gave me the gift of a night out. She signed us up for a ‘paint night.’ In case you haven’t heard of ‘paint night’ or ‘Paint Nite’ it’s becoming increasingly popular. Maybe because there’s wine involved. In any case – it’s fun! Trying to master control and technique. As always, words and photos are my own, and require permission to reprint. Interested in photo prints? Tuesday, June 16, 2015.

Comments, opinions and observations on.whatever. Tuesday, May 19, 2015. April showers bring May flowers. From the sight of the first crocus to the fragrant lilacs and lilies of the valley, we know spring is here! While I do love seeing all those colorful blossoms and catching whiffs of their wonderful fragrances, the birds are also harbingers of summer’s pending arrival. Tuesday, May 19, 2015.
