I know the scarecrows made a recent appearance on the blog but now they have all come out to play. We have done a lot of the decorating but not all. Actually I am not sure if we will get all of it done this year due my injury but we'll see. Bill's loves Halloween so I am going to try to make it happen.
...went up the water spout. He lost his grip and fell in the flower pollen.
I was playing around with a photo aperture technique called Bokeh. The little lights in the background is the effect I was looking for but I wish I was able to get the spider with less harsh light but I ruined the web by mistake so the photo shoot was over. Oh well, still kind of cool...well except for the big creepy spider! You can learn more about bokeh at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bokeh
Bill was staining our deck today and we were outside enjoying his "union" break when I spotted this spider web in the wheel well of my car. It was hard to go back inside to work because it is gorgeous out there. Can any hear that...it's my hammock calling!
We got up early this morning and went to watch the sunrise on Skaneateles Lake. Bill took me to Mirbeau Inn and Spa to celebrate my birthday which was last month. While we were walking in town witnessed the bright sun rising over the church in town and also caught the itsy bitsy spider preparing her breakfast. The sun was so bright, I did not get the web in the photo, but I like the way the spider and flies appear to just be hanging in mid air.The day turned out to be in the upper 80s and we enjoyed the rest of the day with a picnic on the lake, relaxing at the spa and wandering through the stores in town.
