Group Pictures


Group Pictures


Group pictures are funny to me.  They show a bunch of people in a place together and convey that those people enjoyed being together at that time in that place, but they rarely show what those people were doing.  This one, made into a gif for fun, was after we sat on a grassy hillside and watched the sun come up.  It was fun and we ate breakfast afterwards but this group picture is what remains.  Although of course, I took other images that day.

Fire

Fire


Have you ever gone camping? I don't mean with a camper because in general I consider that cheating.  But only sort of.  Whatever.  Whenever I go camping one of the things I look forward to is having a fire.  Fires are fun to watch and add to as they consume most anything you throw into them.  They're just eye catching, and I don't really know why.  Being kept warm is an added bonus. 

I took this image in my living room just before Thanksgiving.  The fact that it is a Lucky Charms box is of no significance, it was just sitting around our house.  But they way the flames shoot out the top is very interesting to me.  

Have there been any interesting times around a fire that you really enjoyed?
