I'm not walking for pace yet, so I'm bringing along the OM-5 with the 14-150mm zoom mounted. Stepped outside the other morning and there were three of these guys on the wall. This one was the largest.
Mitzi had some exterior lighting mounted in the soffits and they attract bugs, making for a kind of buffet for tree frogs. So maybe it's a little easier, bein' green.
Shot a rose and a little blue heron this morning. Couldn't decide between the rose and the heron, so the frog was it.
And, huh...
Just noticed that I managed to lose the viewfinder eyecup on the OM-5. Bummer. I'm sure that little piece of plastic is going to cost $30 or more... Not the first time. Probably won't be the last. I'll order a new one when we get back in December.
Mitzi and I had dinner tonight with a couple I've known for more than 30 years.
We talked about my "risk assessment," and found that they agreed. They're looking at property in North Carolina, though Helene has altered their thinking regarding location, hydrology becoming a key element. North Carolina being "less red," also factors into their choice, along with an intolerance of northeast winters.
Anyway, life goes on.
And always remember...
No matter where you go, there you are.
