Some pictures from my birthday below. It was a beautiful day of blue skies at fifty degrees. I had a special breakfast at Uprise Bakery; did some shopping (mostly on much-need layering pieces during a big sale at Old Navy, but still- it felt like a birthday splurge); wrote some long emails; took the dog to visit another dog [...]

Some New Pictures from Yellowstone
November 15th, 2011 · No Comments · Photography, Travel
I finally spent some time this past weekend working on photos from, yeah, Yellowstone. Yes, they’re 18 months old, or nearly that. I know! But though the trip is long past now, it still gives me pleasure to work on the images, when I get around to it.

Halloween Parties and Party Prep Parties
October 28th, 2011 · No Comments · Endless Blathering, Holidays, Photography
Halloween weekend! And it looks to be a busy one, too. My costume is together, but I need to conjure up some Halloween party snacks and some food for a BBQ on Sunday afternoon, and I’m drawing a blank so far on anything creative. I guess I don’t need to be creative, but I’m invited [...]

You can buy prints of some of my photos at Art.com, I discovered today. Here’s a link: http://www.art.com/gallery/id–a252690/abbie-brown-posters.htm?ui=F4E169863BE04E03B268598F659A11F1 I am sure I don’t make much money if you buy a print that way, and I’d be happy to sell you the same items for the same price if you wanted to help me line my pockets.

It’s All a Mess
August 26th, 2011 · No Comments · Endless Blathering, Movies, Photography
Long weeks, short weekends… this has been a long week, and the weekend will be short. I’m having a party tomorrow night, so the first half of the weekend is all about cleaning and shopping for the party, and then the second half of the weekend will be recovering from it. And it won’t even [...]

More stuff I’ve found on the web in the past few days. Additionally, I’ve exported the blog posts from my photography blog and imported them over here, consolidating them. This is a bit of housekeeping and record-saving before I eventually close that blog and do something else with the front page of the domain. I’m [...]

Stop the Insanity
March 18th, 2010 · No Comments · In Summary, Photography
I lurk on a few forums that are populated by photographers. Some of them are mostly male, and the subjects generally tend towards photos of cars and motorcycles and female models, and some of the forums are mostly female with the photo subjects generally tending towards babies (putting babies in teacups, for instance (oh ho, [...]

Hanukkah Weekend
December 14th, 2009 · No Comments · Endless Blathering, Holidays, Photography
It’s been a long time since I left all my Christmas shopping until after Thanksgiving, and I kind of like the holiday thing of gathering gifts together. I might not like it if some of these things don’t arrive in time, but right now it seems jolly. Had a great Hanukkah weekend. Tracy came into [...]

Beauty and Cynicism and Photography
October 27th, 2009 · No Comments · Photography, What I Did Last Weekend
Unfortunately, no magic happened at the Homecoming game, though it was the prettiest fall day in weeks. You could feel the energy in the air anyway, the hope of an unlikely victory. I even drove by the stadium a couple of times in the morning to see how the tailgate-setups were coming along. I love [...]

New Goals, OK Weekends
October 12th, 2009 · No Comments · Photography, What I Did Last Weekend
Aha! Another goal for myself (in the continuing thought process that setting and achieving goals for myself somehow gives my life more purpose)! There’s this project on Flickr where people take pictures every day for a year; it’s called the 365 Project. There are several of them- some of them just for self portraits (which [...]
