It was a very patient bird. My birdwatcher friend, Judy, thinks that it is probably a Cassin's Finch. Near Abiquiu, NM. 21 March 2007.

These deep blue skies are one of the things that I love about the west. Near Abiquiu, NM. 20 March 2007.

Look! Up in the air! It's a bird. It's a plane. They're going to hit each other! (No, no, not really. But it made for an interesting picture.) Near Abiquiu, NM. 21 March 2007.

I've just returned from a week here, at the Christ in the Desert Monastery, near Abiquiu, New Mexico. I was able to get a few shots, despite four days of rain. 21 March 2007.

After two days of 70 degree weather, we woke up to snow this morning-- just enough to completely confuse the crocus. 15 March 2007.

Another photo from NightwatchMidwest. The kids have a midnight mass, lighted only by candles and glowsticks. Amazing how much they move in 2 seconds! 3 March 2007.

A 30 second exposure of kids using the indoor labyrinth this past weekend at NightwatchMidwest. They stood up half way into the shot, so it appears as if they are ghosts lying/sitting on the labyrinth. 3 March 2007.

Ice on the trees in a January ice storm. The Cathedral of Christ the King, Kalamazoo, Michigan. 15 January 2007.

Hoarfrost on a cherry tree at the Cathedral of Christ the King. 21 February 2007.

This is reflective of my mood on this Ash Wednesday-- a dark, grey morning (with spectacular hoarfrost- more on that tomorrow) and just the barest glimpse of the sun poking through. 21 February 2007.

Remember this photo of a fountain from 9 December 2006? Here it is after weeks of sub-freezing weather. Quite a lovely ice sculpture! 14 February 2007.

One of the more recent images from the timelapse project. 11 February 2007.

Just one of (no kidding) 7,203 images of blooming amaryllis that I have taken over the last week for a timelapse video. 9 February 2007.

It was a yawn, but it sure looks like she's trying to be ferocious! (And who knew that cats have "furry" tongues? You can double-click on the image to get a closer look.) Manchester-by-the-Sea, MA. 25 December 2006.
