Living In the Moment

It is a humid Saturday in Massachusetts ~ I am comfortable being indoors today ~ I ran out this morning for a few errands, but I have had my air conditioning going for most of the day ~ I think I need to explain why I chose this picture for today ~ This was a photo I picked for a finalist. This was for my online photography course, I am currently participating in. We needed to take 100 pictures, Pick the Top 4 and then ask your significant other to pick the one you would choose to post for the Instructor. So this is it - Do you think he picked a good one? LOL

This photo was taken a few days ago - My two furries were in our living room window focused on a few finches in our outside bushes ... As you can see, they did not even notice I was there with my camera :) I also submitted this photo into Steve Sonheim's PHOTO SILLY class ... I decided to take his 14 Day Workshop and I am loving it ... Learning and having fun, what an enlightening combination!

Even though our weekend in Maine brought mostly rain - I was able to get out with my camera on one day ... During our walk on the beach, we spotted this beautiful Scooner in the distance ... Even though it is a bit blurry, it had the same feeling of the partly cloudy day we spotted it on ...

We were lucky enough to get away for this past weekend to Kennebunk Maine. This photo is the view from our Inn's balcony. Unfortunately, the weather was not with us. We tried to think what Maine Visitors do when you the weather is lousy - Our Answer? Go bet on Live Horse Racing - We had a blast - I was picking "The Winners" and my husband was picking them "To Place" in the race. We won 9 out 12 races ... We were unlucky with weather, but very luck at the track :)

This picture always reminds me a wonderful visit to Boothbay Harbor ~ I took this photo last Summer ~ I turned it into a black and white photo, for a different effect ~ I was hoping to have some new photos of visiting Maine this past weekend, but it rained for most of it ~ I did take a few pics, but I have not downloaded them yet ~ Hoping to find one that I can actually post :)
