into each life a little rain must fall
From March 21, 2010, this photo was taken exactly one year to the day of my third surgery and second skin graft.
National Photo Month (day 18)
From July 4, 2009. Nothing says love quite like a heart-shaped potato chip with your turkey and cheese hoagie.
National Photo Month (day 17)
From December 2008, this photo is of Tubey the Eel’s tank. We’d previously bought another tank that was home to other fish in October 2008 but that tank leaked, which is exactly what you want the tank that sits on your kitchen counter between your refrigerator and stove to do, but really not so much. Those fish were re-homed to another tank we had at the time and this tank’s replacement became home to Tubey the Eeel and his 2 frog buddies, Flippy and Jumpy. Flippy and Jumpy have since gone to the big frog pond in the sky but Tubey remains our resident eel.
I actually have this set as my desktop.
National Photo Month (day 16)
In October 2011 I went on a field trip to Johnson’s Corner Farm in Medford, NJ with my sister-in-law’s daycare. This funny guy is one of my favorite photos from the day.
National Photo Month (day 15)
January 15, 2011. As it turns out there’s a duck pond in Washington Lake Park. We discovered it on a walk on New Years Day 2011 and went back 15 days later to take some more pictures with my telephoto lens.
National Photo Month (day 14)
Sunset from Fisherman’s Wharf in Cape May September 1, 2007. I took this leaning between the boat and the wharf and in between tables of diners.
This is actually one of my favorite sunset photos ever. It was taken with my Fuji FinePix point and shoot. I didn’t even know what a DSLR camera was back then, which goes to show you don’t need a fancy camera to take great pictures.

Philadelphia Skyline from the Ben Franklin Bridge driving west toward the late day sun.
National Photo Month (day 12)
reaching for the heavens
Photo from January 8, 2009. This National Photo Month project has been fun. I’m enjoying looking through old photos. These photos from 2009 are just me taking pictures. They’re not me trying to use fancy manual settings or trying to get just the right f stop, they are just me having fun taking pictures. Maybe I should get back to that attitude and not worry so much about them being perfect or professional.
National Photo Month (day 11)
View of Cira Center from the Comcast Building
I was in Center City today to have lunch with Mr. Soapy before I went to physical therapy this afternoon. The sky was a beautiful blue and as I turned and looked west I saw my favorite building in the distance.
National Photo Month (day 10)
This is probably one of the first photos I took with my iPhone. It’s also probably one of the first I took after my surgery. It was a full moon night and I rode in to the city with Mr. Soapy so he could get something he left at his office. I took this as we were coming off the Schuylkill Expressway and about to turn on to Chestnut St.
