Kalona Cheese Factory, detour off I-80 on the way to Mom Maintenance
at the quick mart,, he wasnt buying gas!
and then out of town.(Kalona is a Mennonite community)
past family farms
to Riverside, future birthplace of Captain Kirk(note banner)
three eras of transport
and back to the fast lane of the 4 lane, and on to deliver the cheese!
I used a free downloadable photo editor to crop and do a little editing. PHOTOSCAPE. Not Photoshop but pretty good for my new mini laptop, an acer 8.9 inch perfect for travel. It even can work with raw files. read the reviews on cnet. Free is always good, Right? Still working mostly with Jpegs but will move on soon, I hope. Happy Thanksgiving, all!
Just wanted to do a different K picture, not great quality cause it was taken at work with my cell phone but hope this would fit in the unusual category. This is a shot of a urine culture in which the person definitly had a problem! There are salts and sugars in the agar(jelly like stuff) that turn pink if the bacteria uses them for fermentation. way too much info but here is my 2nd K.
I love a fire.. bonfire, fireplace, whatever, as long as it is controlled, gives warmth and lightens the mood. I have been lusting after an outdoor fireplace but due to cash flow shortages couldnt rationalize the needed purchase. Mother of invention found me searching for an alternative in the garage full of stuff and I made a small firepit with an old brazier and some bricks. using limbs picked up from past storms and mesquite used for smoking meat I have been enjoying my pit! Here, Wayde, are what I hope gives some of that inventive eye that you asked for! Add a nice cup of coffee, or these last few nites of a second indian summer, a nice microbrew and it is an evening under the stars that renews the soul!
and the final one.. a kinda spooky guy seen thru the smoke!
Salem Enjoya really greendrink(havent changed the water lately!)
Lucca approaches.....
and investigates the"intruder"
No editing, Wayde, and only a little adjusting of the auto mode. I just did it down to a minus 1.5-2 on the meter anddid an evaluative reading. lots of shadows and highlights. We'll see what I get this weekend. K
