Backlit

After almost two months away from the cat, it's nice to see her again, although I think she prefers the warm climate of Thailand to the damp cold of San Francisco. At least it makes her more friendly, she's always trying to climb into our laps to warm up!

I shot her lying on the back of the couch in front of the window, so this is really shooting against the light. I'm not sure I totally love the effect, but I am working on getting better at handling backlit situations, so I figured this was good practice. And it is certainly a different look.

I know I said no more pictures of the snow, but I lied. Sorry. This is the last one, I promise.

More Snow

Last image of my snowy thanksgiving weekend. I love the organic curve of the paw prints contrasted with the industrial straightness of the edge of the road.

Snow

Came to California, first thing I saw was snow. Not what you would predict, is it?

Late for Thanksgiving

Okay, I have been MIA and I have no excuse. Finally finished with two months of world travel, we've been sitting here near Lake Tahoe stuffing our faces, sitting back and relaxing, and occasionally taking walks in the snow. I can't complain.

These are some tomato/sundried tomato bruschetta we made for Thanksgiving, appetizers. They went pretty quickly, but I caught this shot before they were all gone.
