After being out taking pictures for most of the day my relaxation always takes the form of sitting at the computer and looking over the photos, hoping for some really nice sharp ones. Which is what I was doing yesterday when something got me to look out at the sky over top of my curtains in the Florida room. I saw the bluebird on my neighbor’s antenna, and the sky.
You can picture what happened next. I was out the door with the camera, and came to lament that I didn’t have my iPhone with me for the extra wide angle view. I was up and down the street looking for views of the sky with palm trees in them, and frantically taking pictures. I may have been talking to myself too. So when I realized that a neighbor was sitting on his front patio enjoying the sunset and witnessing my wanderings I was a little embarrassed. “You caught me”, I said. But he said to come to his patio and see his view. I think the last photo is from that vantage spot. He said he’s a photographer too, so he totally ‘got’ my obsession. Whew, the men in white coats won’t be coming for me quite yet.
