It is the season and my decorating is all done.

Coming from my grandson's basketball game and the moon was out and bright. Almost a full moon at 89.6%. This is one of my better moon shots. Hard to believe man has landed there.

Took a trip to the Omaha, NE. Henry Doorly Zoo. After hacking through the Congo I discovered this waterfall. This zoo is really a great place to visit.

They say photography is the recording of light, lines, shapes and color. This is the underside of the Bob Kerry Pedestrian Bridge and what I consider to be my first photograph. This is my first photo where I saw the recording of light and lines and shapes and color in the image I capture. I had posted this years ago but I decided to re-process to see if I have learned anything over the years.

A golf round done or maybe the lawn is mowed. It could be a party with close friends or maybe just a quiet evening in the back yard. Any way you cut it, it is summertime!

Couldn't help but take a photo of this as I pulled into my parking lot. I am guessing: 1) someone is not happy 2) somebody is going to be less happy than they are now 3) an insurance company is not going to be happy 4) the glass company is going to be happy 5) two lawyers are going to be happy 6) police workload increase not making them happy 7) etc

The Japanese Beetle is eating its' way across the Midwest. Many trees are bare but what amazes me is their method of eating the leaf as can be seen by looking at the leaves on the ground.

The Japanese Beetle is doing a lot of damage this year. While the trees are going bare, the ground is filling with their artwork. Once they have finished eating, the remains of the leaf looks like fine delicate lace.

A fall day, cool and sunny, you just have to look up to see the white puffy clouds.

Early morning sun can make a flower bed really jump out at you.

Fall is coming, you got to love sweater weather!

Gerald R Ford bithplace in Omaha, NE.

The fingers tell all, song over.

To enjoy what you are doing, you need to toss the old cell phone.

The working fingers of a Mariachi band.

Missing the rail.

Not sure but I think it might be for flood control at the lake.

Iowa fields.

Flooding continues at I-680 & I-29 north of Omaha NE.

Anyone need a ride?

The flooding Mighty MO.

Gooooood!

Glue and water, making putty.

Next stir.

Sunday morning and the whole place to myself. There is nothing like the sound of water to calm one.

Issue was so good wanted a photo to remember it by, in low light of course.

Nothing like flowers in the spring time, even if they have been there all winter.

Which way is up?

A water fall inside.

I see you.

Thank you, fathers, uncles, brothers, nephews, nieces and the US citizens who kept this flying.

This bush always turns a great color of red.

First stab at a HDR photo.

A very pretty spot.

Bubbles and a leaf.

Will be iced over shortly.

Hear the diesel engine roar.

Activities for the summer.

Just a great day for sailing.

Something about a shoreline that attacts people.

A good looking day.

Lots of wire standing out against the blue sky.

Sometimes you need to stop and look at what is in front of you.

A nice place to set and watch the clouds go by and people and cars ...

A small bang with a loud noise.

All decked out in a period uniform.

Pretty warm day to be standing in the sun with a heavy uniform.

A few cowboys who rode into camp.

Just part of the front door.

Pretty colors are just for flowers.

Yes, summertime is here.

Omaha, NE downtown mall.

Setting at a rail crossing with nothing to do.

Have never seen the Platte so full. Not a single sandbar in sight.

Just playing with Elements.

Fresh growth.

A number of bridges can be found around the lakes. This one was saved and moved here.

A very calm evening to enjoy.

A different treatment of the previous photo.

I drive by these water fountains everyday. Coming home last night from work, decided I would take a picture of them.

Just some of the structure for the Bob Kerry Pedestrian Bridge.

A very big connection that you find in today’s electronics.

Artist is Julie Kregness-Thorsen

I spent all night working on the glass design.

Good job! Third place at the quilt show.

Some day a child, grandchild or great grandchild will wrap up in this to stay warm and think of the person who made it!

Holy smokes! A whole lot of work.

Very pretty, lots of work and a lot of finger sticks!

State of the art for 1920.

For the quilter on the go.

It is not only star light that makes a beautiful night.

Back drop for the Omaha river front.

Whatever these are they always catch the sun rising and setting and I drive by them everyday on the way to and from work.

Every time I go some place where they put me to sleep, I wake up to gifts!
And I used my new eye for this.

I believe this is a B-17, a workhorse of our fathers’ time.

The tools our fathers used to free the world.

Early, dark and cold. Why am I up and going to work? The alarm should never go off unless the outside temperature equals the temperature in the bed and you don’t have to turn on a light when you get up.

Omaha skyline from the skating rink.

I was looking for the Queen of Hearts but only found Mr. Toad. Now if I can just find Alice!

Setting in a restaurant waiting on my food I began to wonder, out the window and thru the shutters slates.

There are so many things that need research to improve our lives. This is just one of many. See how the pennies grow into dollars?

A splash of water and a little bit of tree.

Street money, about 3.5 pounds of money, somewhere around $45. Keep your eyes open and be willing to bend over for a penny or more.
