WonderLIFE

I've been trying very hard to remember when I took this photo.  No luck.  At least the moment is captured.  Nothing other than photography could do that.  Every time I see a good photo, I think, "What luck!", "How lucky!".  Truth is, more goes into a good image than most folk realize.  Good taste doesn't just happen.  It's important to cultivate one's taste.  There are so many people floating around that are really good at presenting themselves.  Then, once you spend some time with them, you realize they have no taste of their own!  They just consume other people's good taste.  Such a shame.  It's so easy to find your own taste.  Oh well!

Rear Window

We got this hummingbird feeder and filled it up with syrup.  At first it was really red.  Juicy.  Every day, the color faded away a little.  I'm looking at the feeder now, the syrup is clear as glass.  What a mysterious world this is.

Even though it's been almost exactly a year since this photo was taken, it looks almost exactly the same.  Some things don't change, inexplicably.
