December 4: Sunday Mornings

Rancho Bernardo, CA


I love Sunday mornings. And on cold winter days like today with the temperature hovering around 55 degrees I light a fire, grind some coffee beans, and watch CBS Sunday Morning on TV (the best show on television). There will be time to read the paper, eat breakfast, and post this shot before watching the Charger’s game versus the hated Oakland Raiders.

For those of you who find watching me watch TV to be a total snore you will find below a lovely coastal flower taken yesterday at Torrey Pines.

Robin, like this image and selective color. It captures the morning.

Reminds me that I must go through my old images and scan. I have a B&W Saturday Morning of two girls on a sleepover. Thanks for the nudge. ;-)

Oh my heart does bleed for you! How do you keep from freezing in that unbearable 55 degree weather.
Guest 09-Dec-2005 07:19
Nice selective color, you PS maven, you. Have you sent the 24-105 back to the shop?

I like the selective color, comfortable livingroom or den, and I agree about two things, CBS Morning and hating the Raiders, then the Cowboys, actually for me it is the Cowboys, most hated, then Miami and then Oakland.

lovely selective color with the fire and tv...and I'm so jealous it's 55 there!

In S/W Michigan its in the low 20's. We light a fire and settle in to watch the Bears beat the dreaded Packers. It's actually fun to be a Bears fan this year! The Monsters of the Midway are back again. What a defense!
Rochelle Weiss05-Dec-2005 18:11
What a creative idea for use of color!
Guest 05-Dec-2005 16:53
Wow! very cozy living room and selective coloring fits well.. :)

The perfect life...do you like soup & toast for lunch too :>) Like your selective colouring Robin.

Life is good!

Cold??!! 55 degrees! You are spoiled! ;-) Great shot though! Wonderful black and white shot! Love the selective coloring! And your cozy living room with the great fireplace! Hope your Chargers win! Our Steelers didn't! :-(

Sounds like a great way to spend Sunday morning.
Herb 05-Dec-2005 03:12
So that's how you recover from a Photo outing LOL
Elaine (etfitz)05-Dec-2005 02:18
Looks like a peaceful way to start the morning!
Manfred Bachmann05-Dec-2005 02:12
Wooww, there is so much warm and nice atmosphere, i like your lifestyle!
Susie Robinson 05-Dec-2005 00:41
Your selective coloring is great. A very enjoyable photo to view after watching my beloved Chiefs beat the snot out of the Broncos.

Great shot! Love the comp, wide-angle view, and selective coloring! Looks very cozy, mind if I change the station to cartoons?
Sean Blumenhein04-Dec-2005 20:49
I think your living room is the size of my house, they build them a little smaller over here in England. My daughter would disagree with you, Dora the Explorer is the best show! I like your use of selective colors here.
Gayle P. Clement04-Dec-2005 20:27
That does look nice and cozy, especially when I'm spending my Sunday in the Atlanta airport with a lot of other grumpy people
JW04-Dec-2005 18:46
An interesting insight into the lives of the rich an dfamous of SoCal!! LOL

Great use of selective colour.

You actually have plenty of time before the game, Robin. It doesn't start until 5:30 p.m.

I like the desat in this image.
Coleen Perilloux Landry04-Dec-2005 17:18
Very nice shot, Robin. You look quite cozy there with the fire. I am wondering what is on the shelf directly above the television--looks interesting.
Guest 04-Dec-2005 17:05
"cold winter days like today...50 degrees..."
OH BOY COME TO MAINE FOR AWHILE! lol :-P
Dan Chusid04-Dec-2005 17:02
Pepe, Herb and I will drag the keg over for the game
so get the chips and salsa ready!
Tidy up! I think we'll be bringing some ladies...
;^)

Beautiful shot at 10mm Robin.
Very cosy place.
Almost like being there.
What ya got to snack on ? :)
royalld04-Dec-2005 16:50
CBS Sunday Morning. That is exactly how I spend most Sunday mornings.
I must say, you timed that shot perfectly... or was that computer magic?
Either way, it's a great photo.
Di04-Dec-2005 16:41
My kind of morning! In fact...29 degrees here, fire going and getting ready to make a second pot of coffee. Later, I plan to watch my Broncos beat the snot out of the Chiefs! Enjoy your day, Robin.
Lee Rudd04-Dec-2005 16:32
cold?! I think not :) happy watching
