Oct. 9th, 2009 10:21 amMy time off was approved for both my trip to DC over the week of November the 2nd, and for a mini-vacation with Moira on the 18th and 19th this month. Good stuff, both. Now I need to buy bus tickets and make a room reservation, respectively, to ensure that both of these plans come together.
I also am going to order more batteries for my camera to make sure I don't run out while I"m wandering the wilds of our nation's capital. I'm thinking one more CF card would be a good idea too.
It's getting so much colder here these days. It's forty-five degrees out, and mildly rainy. The thick furry blankets feel so good to snuggle under, and I don't want to get out of bed in the mornings.
I cleaned a chunk of the downstairs yesterday and will do some more today. I'm hoping to get pretty close to done over the weekend. Of course, I also have road-trip plans with Moira on Saturday. And I have pictures to go through and post, and more stuff to get out of the garage and put on Ebay. But keeping busy isn't bad, and I feel kind of on top of things at the moment.
And even though I'm not on queue for work today, I'm going to see if I can snag and close ten tickets today. I have two so far.

This nice little sign is at the Mississippi riverfront in St. Louis Missouri, just south of the Jefferson National Expansion Monument (and the Gateway Arch). I like trying to juxtapose different, not immediately related, elements in a photograph in a harmonious way, or in a way that says something more about the environment I'm in. It's something I'm working at doing consciously. I have a picture of the Gateway Arch seen through the columns of the old courthouse portico, for example, that I rather like.
I also like the collage of forms here. A rectangle filling the bottom portion of the frame, a triangle on the right, and some negative space in the upper left. It works for me. What do you think?
