Photo Blogging Challenge (July 2013): Signs

August 1, 2013

Yes, I give myself a fail.

Big time.

See, I was cruising along this month decently. Then some crap happened. What, you may ask?

  • My main walk around lens (17-40) is still shot. I can’t afford to have it fixed… yet. That greatly hampered things. Still, I have an iPhone and a point and shoot and other lenses…
  • The last week or so, I’ve been sick as can be. That’s made things quite awful as I’ve barely been near a computer.

So, here I am now. A day late and trying to catch up to make this a wonderful experience, still. And it will be. Oh yes, it will be.

Anyway, this month’s fantastic theme was signs. This could be interpreted in many ways, but as a fan of actual signs, I went forth with the plan where I’d be using those…

… and of course I can’t find a couple shots I took.

No worries. On a weekend trip to Massachusetts for a geocaching event, I got some interesting signs. It seems, however, that I was mixing last month’s theme (bridges) with this month’s theme as I visited eight covered bridges on this trip and they often have some really interesting signs.

So, without anymore blabbing… here’s my five for July.

1. Uneven Deck

I loved this sign as I’d never seen it before. I had it without the bridge, but thought the bridge gave it a bit better context. In Vermont.

Uneven deck.

2. Notice

The funny part about this sign is, of the four New York covered bridges we saw that day, three of them had people jumping off them. Look for a future blog post covering this.

Notice

3. Parking area

This sign is at a local pulloff parking area. I love the age and weathered look.

Parking rules.

4. Welcome!

On our way to the big geocaching event… this is Tavis as we found a cache entering Vermont.

Green Mountain State!

5. Anglers

You can park here… but where to fish?

Park here.

And that’s my five for the month of July. I hope you enjoyed the series.

If you took part this month, make sure you link up below. And for those who participated, make sure you try and get to other people’s blogs and comment and visit so we can continue to grow this challenge.

Don’t forget, too, to come back Friday and see the theme for August!

NOTE: I also set up a Facebook group for those who participate in the challenge and are interested. I’ll post any announcements there and hopefully it can be a place where things are discussed and some interaction etc. You can access it here.

Photo Blogging Challenge (July 2013): Announcement

July 30, 2013

Hey all.

If you’ve already done and posted your post for this month, awesome. If not, no worries.

I’m postponing the posting for one day. The deadline is now August 1, instead of July 31. I’m doing it only because I’ve been battling a bad summer cold and haven’t had the time to process everything and get the linky all set up.

I’ll have it done in time for Aug. 1, though.

Please accept my apologies for the delay and look for the linky early in the AM on August 1.

Thanks and I look forward to seeing everybody’s photos!

Self care is important. With work as stressful as Self care is important. With work as stressful as it usually is during this month, the little things can help you relax. I went this morning for a beard trim. It’s only 30-40 minutes, but it’s nice to have it done. A nice shaping, thinning it out a bit, a hot towel and a straight razor. 

Nice. 

In the world in which we live, little things like this can really be good for you. Maybe it’s a massage. Maybe it’s a therapy session. Maybe it’s a trip to the barber shop. But take care of yourself. It’s important. 

And if you are in my area and need a trim or whatever — check out Chris (@studio11chris ) at @studio11barbersuite in Oneonta. Well worth it!

The only one I truly am sad I missed buying was a limited edition one for the Asher House sometime last year. I waited and lost out. But, she has her collection and I am sure it will keep growing. There are ones she has outside as well!

Sunday was a day with some errands and such, but a Sunday was a day with some errands and such, but also a nice walk on the Vestal Rail Trail. Harper loved it, of course, especially because she got to also walk with her "Gram!"

A video looking at my first year and a half of owning a golden retriever, my first dog. It's had its ups and downs, but I've truly loved the ride and look forward to the future.

I hate being in front of the camera, but also realize sometimes it's not the worst thing in the world. So, I'm getting better with it. Week 4's theme was all about us and having us in front of the camera, so I tried to come up with a creative way to do it.
