Day 225

Tuesday, August 11, 2015

The Photography Exhibition at the Montana State Fair is next door to the Flower Exhibition.  Since they have a really small room, they share space with us when they are accepting flowers to be exhibited. In addition to the great smells and a bit of extra air conditioning… …they provide us with some nice flowers […]

Day 221

Sunday, August 9, 2015

Dailylife Daughter #2 was home for her Grandfather’s 90th Birthday this week.  I took her and the Dailylife Wife to lunch at 5th Street Diner.  Good, as always! We took advantage of everyone being home to get a family portrait done.  Friend Bekka is very good at environmental portraiture.  I will post more when we get […]

Day 220

Sunday, August 9, 2015

A few more of the Full Moon… More with the railroad tracks… Just one in the mud puddle. And while that one is okay, I have made a few variants using the filters in Elements. Bas relief. Cutout. Paint daubs. Water color. Glass. And one from my front sidewalk of the Moon through the powerlines […]

Day 218

Sunday, August 9, 2015

Just a little project from a couple weeks ago when the Moon was full.  Sometimes it pays to look down at the mud… ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 213

Friday, August 7, 2015

More from the evening of the Super Blue Moon…I think this is a Swainsons Hawk.  The coloring is off because everything out there was golden red from the setting sun. * ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 212

Friday, July 31, 2015

While I was out for the moonrise, a train rumbled through Fife.  Five Engines! It seemed to be grain cars: I think they were headed the wrong way to be full, so some of the locomotives were probably deadheading until needed.  There is a new circle track grain elevator down by Moccasin.  I will have […]

Day 211: Super Blue Moon!

Friday, July 31, 2015

We are having a Super Blue Moon…the Blue part is that this is the second Full Moon this month.  It happens every now and then.  I went out to watch the moonrise and it was disappointing.  It rose about half an hour before the sun set, and the moonrise itself was lost in the haze […]
