Share your world – 30th September 2020

It’s hard to believe that September is pretty done and dusted, we have been living with this Pandemic for six months now and things are slowly, seemingly coming back under control. Of course, that could be a false sense of control? But then, often life is a false sense of control anyway, right? Oh well…let’s…

Spring blossoms in black & white

What now seems like many years ago I planted two weeping cherry blossom trees in the front yard, on either side of the pond and in front of the main windows. They block and filter the sun in Summer and in Winter they are bare and let in sunlight. They are simply gorgeous, although my…

Updating your monitor calibration after changing your room color — Photofocus

We just painted our home office. It was a sunny bright yellow — all the rage twenty years ago — but not brilliant for photo editing.

Monday’s Musings

Another busy week, seven zooms in seven days! Most went for several hours, I was feeling a little hoarse near the end. I don’t normally talk THAT much, lol. At least for two I was not presenting, so I mostly had to listen. We had beautiful Spring weather, can’t really go anywhere, but still nice…
