More narrowly speaking, however, as in from the viewpoint of my camera lens, change to the scenery can be swift, frequent, drastic and dramatic. The same old view rarely looks the same way twice.
For example, these first two photographs, of a point of land on Queens Creek near Smithers Cemetery, are basically the same as far as content, but what a difference there is in the colors.

As mentioned a few days ago, I don't know how to edit photographs. Even if I did, I probably wouldn't because I have no spare time nor any desire to fiddle around with the pictures I take.
The differences here in lighting and color are completely natural. And I find that amazing.
Of course, I don't get out much.

Slow down and enjoy life. It's not only the scenery you miss by going too fast, you also miss the sense of where you are going and why.

That Eddie Cantor was some smart guy ... Paul Simon also knew what he was talking about when he sang 'slow down you move too fast, got to make the morning last' .... maybe if we all slow down 2011 will take longer to get here .. ALL your photos are wonderful, you have a true photographer's eye ... who needs editing when you can see it right the first time?
Great photos CBW.
Hope you have a great week.
Yes, and slowing down sounds pretty good to me. Especially at this time of the year.
Enjoy the kids and family, and photos! Not forgetting Christmas and the New Year!
See you in April. Haha. Well, I think I'll be in NYC helping out with baby number two god-willing!
"kallop" what you have to do to Keep up with Kristmas!
When my accident forced me to retire early the doctors told me that I should look at the bright side; I'd have time to do the things I've always wanted to do. They lied. I'll still be juggling my schedule 2 weeks after my funeral!
Just beautiful....
new gal here again. I tried to find the Islander today b/c of your blog (unsuccessful... I'm directionally impaired -- like you've never seen!).
just fyi, I read your blog religiously. i have it bookmarked on my comp.
i cannot wait for a book!! You need to do a signing somewhere in town. ;)
Gorgeous pics. Merry Christmas! :)
New Gal - If you go over the bridge to Gwynn's Island, look to your left and that's the Islander. There is a hard surface road on the left just before you get to the Sea Breeze (which is on the right - are you confused yet? I think I am.) Turn in there and keep going (through a residential area) until you come to the boathouse/marina. You'll see a playground--make a right and that'll take you to the motel.
Thank you for reading! Actually, thanks to all of you for reading and for commenting. The comments really make my day.
Hope to have a post up Wednesday, probably just a picture or two. Still have lots left to do before I can start to relax.
Hope everyone has a fantastic, stress-free week.
(Ha! Is there is such a thing as a stress-free week? I think they're only found in Bora Bora. Still, I hope it's as good a week as possible given all the scurrying around people seem to be doing.)
