Blue Sunrise 1

Peering out into a calm blue ocean with a quiet pink sun peeking through the clouds is not a bad way to start the day. Sunrise on Glovers atoll in Belize photographed with a Zero Image 2000 pinhole camera.

Well I have made it one full year into this journey. It has been and will continue to be a vehicle that may wiggle from side-to-side a bit but keeps on track nonetheless. I would like to sincerely thank everyone who has viewed, commented and provided encouragement over the last year as without you blogging would not be the fun and enriching experience it has turned out to be. Thanks!

And a few more from the vault:

I walked out onto the front porch to an awesome sunrise the other day and grabbed the camera. The only problem is lacking a tripod I knew I couldn’t hold the camera steady enough to get a clear photo so I did what is commonly done and introduced some motion to the photo. Cliche, maybe, but fun nonetheless and life should be fun.

We spent the better part of warm and sunny Jan Sunday watching a variety of duck behavior on the local pond including this fine looking American Widgeon pair which were following the Red Headed Ducks around trying to steal a meal, as usual.

Gullfoss Pinhole

Photographed on a beautiful day last summer in Iceland. I do believe that I was the only tourist using a pinhole camera that afternoon.
