Week 10: Marina

March 10, 2012 ~ Tara R. ~ 4 Comments

My son had the flu all week, so I took what few opportunities I could to get out of the house to take photos. That meant for a few days, all I could manage was a stroll around the backyard. A break in the weather (and The Boy's Man Cold) allowed for a quick trip … Continue reading Week 10: Marina

Mother love

March 9, 2012January 6, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 15 Comments

A Mother’s work is never done. I send hurricanes, earthquakes, blizzards, and none of it gets your attention very long. You have destroyed every gift I’ve given you. Now, clean up this mess! This weekend's Trifextra challenge is to write a story or snippet of a story which includes, in exactly 33 words, a justified … Continue reading Mother love

A little faith

March 8, 2012January 6, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 10 Comments

I know your journey was long and dark. That you felt lost and alone, but I was always close by your side. You never saw me, but I was there you should stumble or fall. You had to make this journey on your own. Had to find your solitary path, to know you were strong … Continue reading A little faith

Gone fishing

March 5, 2012January 9, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 12 Comments

I have so much stuff to do. I have closets and dressers that need thinning (stoopid jeans not fitting) carpets to clean (stoopid litter box shunning cat), a yard to clean (stoopid crapping dog), garden boxes to prep (stoopid weeds and mole cricket grubs), windows to wash (stoopid moss-generating weather), tons of just junk to put … Continue reading Gone fishing

A turn in the season

March 4, 2012January 6, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 21 Comments

Still a little wintry and grey around these parts, a nasty storm kept me inside on my normal Saturday photo hike day. Fortunately there was enough of a break in the cold and gloom earlier in the week for a short walk. Sunday morning was bright and shiny, a little chilly, but hopefully a turn … Continue reading A turn in the season

Week 9: 365 Project

March 3, 2012 ~ Tara R. ~ 10 Comments

Another week of playing catch-up with my photography and another week of relying too much on my iPhone. Inertia keeps my butt planted in a chair or on the couch, unmotivated to get out and actually do anything. Yet, I am learning something. I'm learning to think more about what I'm photographing. I think more … Continue reading Week 9: 365 Project
