I AM BACK FOR MORE

Well, my term of service in the Bay Central High School Band Boosters is over.  My youngest son has graduated.  I spent two years as President, and four years of acting as the official, unofficial Band Photographer.

What this means is that finally, I have time to take pictures for myself.  And to celebrate here are a few new shots that I have taken recently, on our vacation to the cottage in Hale, MI.

First is this cute little bird that liked to perch in the big oak tree in front of the cottage.

He was sitting with a friend at first, but he (or she) did not want to stick around to get his (her) picture taken.

We did some walking and hiking, and I found this butterfly sitting on a sunlit leaf…

And this goldfinch, who sat long enough to pose for me.

This dragonfly also cooperated.

And finally, tradition dictates that I end with a sunset image over the lake.

Well, that is it for now.  I know it has been two years since I last posted.  I am hoping I can stay more active here now.  We will see.  Life has a habit of throwing the unexpected our way.  But maybe I can get out and play with the camera a bit more often.

Thanks for visiting!
