Except for Christmas Lights, I think Bellingrath Gardens is pretty much done until next Spring. The weather really beat up the cascading mums this year. Two weeks ago they weren't in full bloom, today they were being removed 'cause they're done.

Oh well, truth be told I'm kinda bored with the gardens. Too many pics. Sure would like to find some new places in our area to take pics. I guess "nothing new under the sun" has come home to roost for me. Uh-oh! Maybe we'll have to start traveling a little further a little more often.

Went to Bellingrath expecting Cascading Mums but since they were put out a couple weeks later than usual due to weather they won't be in full bloom for another 2-3 weeks. By then the Christmas lights will be displayed so we'll get a twofer this year.

So I got a few roses, a South Alabama "Fall", couple odds and ends and lots of daisy pics which our granddaughter Elise will probably like.

A little too early for cascading mums this year. We were told they put them out about 2 weeks later due to weather. So these are a few pics to give you an idea of what's to come around the end of November - first part of December. An added bonus this year should be Christmas lights and mums at the s...

It was such a beautiful day we had to get out of the house for a little while so we went to Dauphin Island. It was a little windy so there wasn't a lot of birds hanging around so I had to improvise.

I decided to try to take shots I couldn't remember having taken before, try to shoot from a different place or perspective or in a different or play with camera settings.

So I took about 325 pics. Lucky for you a lot of them were near duplicates (burst mode on the FZ1000 is very fast), I managed to get a lot of junk and I've learned to be brutal when purging.

So you only get to see 41. Sorry if that's disappointing.

I'm working my way through older and/or hitherto unpublished photos. My project for today was sprucing up and adding to a gallery of photos taken of, from, and around the Pensacola Lighthouse located on the Pensacola Naval Air Station.

If you've never visited it's worth the time and the climb. Enjoy the pics.

I just realized that I've been sadly negligent about posting links to new galleries here. So here are some that I've uploaded since July.

In case you didn't know, I had spinal stenosis surgery the end of August so I haven't been out much and being on the computer for any length of time is really uncomfortable. Hoping to get back to "normal" (whatever that is for me) soon.

Well, Zoey's going back to Texas and we'll miss her but we had a good time. We had a couple more field trips this week and I decided to see what she would do with an old Nikon D3100 with and 18-55mm lens.

Once again she surpassed my expectations and took to it like an old hand. Manually zooming and using only the view finder looked like second nature.

I added three more galleries to her page. Unfortunately it will likely be a while 'til there are more.

While waiting on Vickie's car to be serviced across the Bay, we took Zoey, our 7 1/2 year old granddaughter to Fairhope Pier, Bayfront Park and Battleship Park.

Shortly after getting to the FH pier her iPad battery went to zilch. Vickie Wills, being a "Super Nana" offered to let Zoey use her new camera. We weren't quite sure what to expect but it sure wasn't this.

If you want to read a bit more, there's a link on the page.

In any case, you might enjoy and likely will be surprised by what you see. Bear in mind that she has no formal training except what she learned from Papa & Nana ( LOL!). She hadn't seen or held the camera before, and (as far as I know) had only used her iPad to take pics prior to this.

Oh, and nobody told her what pictures to take. This is all (7 1/2 year old) Zoey. Enjoy.
