March 31

 March Photo a Day.  March 31.  Photographer's Choice.

I've been going through all the photos saved on my computer for the past twenty years.  Randomly, I found this picture of Hollywood Beach, Oxnard, Ventura County, California (quite near where we used to live).  The Ventura County beaches were some of our favorite places to walk.  This photo is an iconic view of Hollywood Beach.

 March Photo a Day.  March 28.  Repetition.

Nothing shows repetition better than weaving.  Back and forth, back and forth, ad infinitum.  Eleanor Elizabeth Bunny added for interest.

 March Photo a Day.  March 26.  Pathway.

This may be my favorite path ever that The Professor and I have walked.  On the top of Hadrian's Wall near Housesteads Roman Fort.  We were literally walking on the top of the wall through the trees.

 March Photo a Day.  March 25.  Patterns.

The Nurse, my younger daughter, found this fascinating deck of cards and gave them to me for Christmas.  Fair Isle knitting patterns.

 March Photo a Day.  March 23.  Abstract.

Blurry pictures taken from car windows make the best abstract photos.

 March Photo a Day.  Black and White.  A tower on the Roman wall of York.  No, those are statues, not real people standing on the turret.

Nothing says spring like beautiful yellow daffodils.  Happy Spring to everyone! (and Happy Autumn to those in the southern hemisphere!)

 March Photo a Day.  March 19.  Out a window.

It was really hard to choose a picture for today.  I have way too many photos of windows.  Finally, I narrowed it down to two.

Looking out a window in Conwy Castle, Wales.

Taken from a train window toward the North Sea in Berwick on Tweed, England.

 March Photo a Day.  March 18.  On a shelf.

When I  lived in Southern California, I would occasionally visit The Last Bookstore in Downtown Los Angeles.  There are many books on many shelves.

 March Photo a Day.  March 16.  Hobby.

Well, this was an easy one.  If you have been reading my blog for more than a month, you will know the answer.  My hobby?  Yarn and knitting.

Sometimes I spin my own yarn.


Sometimes, I knit with commercial yarn.

Nary a day passes without me knitting.

 March Photo a Day.  March 14.  Night Time Lights.  There was a lunar eclipse last night.  The Professor and I set our alarm for 2:15am and woke up to step outside and watch it for about forty-five minutes.

The real time view was amazing!  The photos I took with my camera-- not so much.  But here they are.  Can you spot the very faint stars?

 March Photo a Day.  March 13.  Mirror.  The many windows of a skyscraper tower mirrors the buildings and landscape around it.  A bit of background:  when Younger Daughter lived and worked in San Diego, I would take the Amtrak train from our town to visit her.  Her office was on an upper floor of a downtown building where one could gaze out at the area around her building.  Mostly we could only see other buildings.  But at least those tall modern buildings had so many windows which acted as mirrors so we could see reflections of the mountains to the east and the older buildings of the Gaslamp Quarter.
