9July2026 - FB is pretty much on my rear view mirror now, except for "Following" other photographers and artists/craftspersons. I also check my FB Memories most mornings since I've been so bad at organizing and saving my photos. 27Jun2025 - This is turning into a journal/journey-down-memory-lane thing. I'm looking through my old photo albums, and at the same time, other memories and thoughts are popping up in my mind. This is what old(er) people do, yes? 9May2025 - I decided to leave FB, and just share my photos etc here. Thank you to the special people who check in here...October2025 - I'm back... (7Dec2022 - crlazlo meanderings 2 is now 2.1 - I will continue to use it as a preview/workspace for my FB posts, but I will also start organizing the many photos from my retirement years, and also start a journal/memories thing. That's the plan anyway.)

What goes around comes around:
This was earlier this morning when I was doing my Paperboy(man) routine. I deliver the Seattle Times to other Shag subscribers here two mornings a week. I use the chairs for the exercise, and this is a window in a stairwell looking out towards our little downtown area. Interesting - I was delivering the “Shopping News” and “White Center News”? at ages 14 and 15. I’m 75 now, and I’m back in the game...

I got some Likes to an old leaf photo I shared recently. During my walk in the rain yesterday I took some more photos of leaves, some wet leaves on the sidewalk. The sidewalk roadway shot was just beyond the section with more colors. Different trees, different leaves, different colors... :)










more buildings reflecting buildings...

I came across this photo yesterday, from the early 70s? Post Vietnam, when I was at UW maybe. This "head" theme ran through a lot of my stuff back then. I took the second photo just now. This sculpture is sitting on my desk: resin, approx 5 1/2" tall, with 3 1/2 sq base. This character also showed up in some prints I made, and paintings too.





 a few more shots from my "pond" post yesterday...I see beauty in the chaos...











Tuesday, November 17, 2020

It was a dreary, light rain-y morning yesterday. I like walking in the rain. Even though it was cloudy and dark, I took some photos. I discovered this small pond that's usually covered from view by brush and trees. It's just opposite the new pedestrian bridge that's just sitting there, waiting on our post Covid future. One of my favorite things about Winter is how the leaves fall off, and you see what's on the other side...

The photos I took in Blyth Pk last week filled up a whole folder. The combination of early morning sunlight filtering through the trees and using my zoom lens on Auto gave me some amazing colors. Some shots I'll share later look like I was just playing with the colors while editing. These were edited very little, just a little framing, contrast and sharpening.

Sort of a blah picture, but it shows the bare branches and dark lines of Winter. Only a week or two back, the colors were amazing! The second photo was from a post I made on 25Oct. I'm actually looking forward to those blacks and grays and lines, but I have a ton of colored leaves photos. I'll probably just go back and forth in my posts.
