6.134 pics, idleness, dinner

Thursday 04/17/2025

A low-pressure day with not much scheduled. In the morning I went out for a short walk and a coffee. Then settled down to finishing up printing new pictures for my gallery. In my closet I have a 2-inch thick stack of pictures that I have printed out at various times to fill my gallery. But I wanted fresh new prints. I have software that lets me improve images. There’s always something I can do to make an image better. Here’s the gallery now.

The one on the upper right is really my favorite. I call it “Shadow Salad”. I was eating at a restaurant on University Avenue about two months ago. Sitting at a table outdoors. Afternoon sun cast a shadow of a plant on the table, onto my salad plate. Didn’t have to rearrange or pose anything, just pick up the phone and shoot.

DIdn’t do much else, played a little guitar, read. Got a call from Dennis; he has had some bad news about his health. Later I talked to his son Bill.

At 5pm I joined Joanne, Edie, and Sherri for a trip to a local restaurant. Joanne had arranged it and invited me, which I thought was nice, to include me in her girls’ night out party. It was a nice meal and fun conversation.
