Winged serpent made of gold, ruby eye and pearl grasped in it’s claw.
Originally a hat pin, my grandmother had the stem removed and a clasp
put in its place so she could wear it on her lapel.

The above picture is not terribly remarkable until you combine it with this one…

Yes, that’s an American dime.
I had a dickens of a time getting the focus.

Antique Rings

These rings belonged to my grandmother and are from the turn of the century.
I had great fun shooting these pictures.
I put the camera on a tripod, finagled a flashlight and a LED lamp and then set a magnifying glass on edge and shot through it to get these.

I paid particular attention to this one…

Vultures

Came home early today to find 3 vultures lurking very near to the house.

I immediately knew what had brought them around.

Somewhat gruesome so I put it behind this link

Ahhh, the circle of life.
And Cynthia was just commenting the other day that she wished someone would clean that up!

Quackety Quack!

I was going through some old pictures I took with my first digital camera and came across this one I took back in 2004 of some baby ducks hanging out in my pool….

It still makes me smile. Hopefully it makes you smile too!

Have a safe and happy holiday!

Figueres

Still going through the pics from the trip. We’ve printed out the ones from Madrid we want to use in the scrapbook. Cynthia’s bought some supplies and she’ll likely start this weekend.

Looking at the shots from Figueres I am reminded how desolate and very depressing that small town was. We had taken the four hour train ride so we could visit the Dali Museum. Trust me, you had better REALLY want to see the Dali museum because that is ALL there is to see there.

While waiting for the train to take us back to Barcelona I set the camera to black and white mode and took a few pictures to help us remember the mood of that leg of our journey.
