OMG, it is practically the middle of the month!
Geez, how does that happen?
I know you have seen photos of this wind twirler in our backyard, but I am not sure if I ever posted one from the wintertime.
Have a good start to your week my FOTO friends.

Why is it that time passes so quickly as we approach the end of our days?
Very nice image. Good value control, and I really like your creative treatment of the image's border
I'm gonna switch to an image with a bit of color. This one, taken 3 days ago, has a color palette that I've always liked - white, gray, and yellow.

Great work, Dave.

Here is the full moon for this month. Taken this morning through a glass balcony door.

Lorell, after reading your first sentence I thought - good, I'm gonna get some valuable advice from a photographer I admire on how I can improve.
Thank you for your very kind words.
MFI and Rich, thank you for seconding and thirding (is that a word?) Lorell's thoughts.
Rich, that's a very good photo. I think the delicate branches work well with the softness and lovely color of the sky, Nice that some of the limbs appear in front of the moon, which shows good detail.

There was an English teacher who studied entomology at the high school where I worked as a math teacher and then a counselor.
He was also a very funny person. We had three lunch periods during our school day because we had so many students, over 2,000, in our building.
I mention this because students as well as teachers never knew when our lunch period would be, Lunch A, B, or C. I was always happy when I discovered that MILES, the funny English teacher, had lunch the same period as me because I knew that I would be in for a few laughs every day at lunchtime including interesting facts about words and other things.
Word origins are so interesting, like the word Maudlin.
PS. I never heard the word THIRDING . Why did you post that word?
RE: Monday, January 13, 2025 - Man From Ironbark - 01-15-2025
Dave orignally posted the word and wondered aloud if it was a real word, so I complied with the search results for him.
