guiding in the night
DO NOT get photographers started on LED lighting, which doesn’t provide those starbursts in photos the way “real” lights do. I had a sense of future nostalgia when I made this image a few months ago…there are more and more LEDs every time I am out taking photos at night.

Moving on, now, from the meetinghouse for a few day’s worth of photos from Portland, which was a city I feel in love with the minute I arrived in town.

What can I say? I’m a sucker for a KitchenAid mixer.
And a turquoise window frame? Yes, please.
And old bricks? Certainly.
And a photo of all of it? But, of course.
