“Many people don’t realize that it’s in what you think are the limitations of a certain form that you can often find your own rhythm and space.”
~ Isabelle Huppert
Sunday was one of those monotone, nondescript days that was neither lovely nor lousy. Not too cold. Not too wet. Not too bleak.
I had almost no energy. Whether it was because of the weather or because we ran around all day on Saturday, I don’t know. Doesn’t matter because I had no pep.
But I thought that we really should do something, so I talked the hubster into going to a city park that we hadn’t been to in years. I remembered that it was flat, paved and had decent parking.
At first I wasn’t going to take my camera with me thinking that without vibrant color outside there’d be nothing to take a picture of. But then I realized that taking photos on a winter day that offered neither sunshine nor snow would be a fun challenge, so the camera came with us. Just in case I saw something I wanted to photograph.
Here’s what I saw…

THE SPECTACLED BEAN 
Greener than I recall. What made the day, of course, was being with you, My Love.

Zen-Den, you are sweet. I think that you are conveniently forgetting how tired I was as we trudged along those paths. Not the peppiest walk that we’ve ever taken…

Like the shark, we are still moving and that’s what counts.

Well, when you put it like that, I guess that I have to agree. Although I have never, ever thought of either one of us as a shark before this.

A change of perspective? A portent of spring? I have got to start taking my camera with me again. You inspire me!

Zazzy, I’m often reluctant to drag my camera along with me, but in this case it was worth the effort. I think I enjoyed the walk more because of it.

Love the pictures! The last one with the bench and the reflective tree branches is my favorite:)

Beth, I liked that one too. Although the geese showing me their tail feathers, made me smile. Ornery, troublesome, uncooperative birds.

So green! Lovely photos.

la p, I know. It was much more green at the park than it is around the house. Don’t know why, but I liked it.

They look beautiful to me! Love them. Is that quote by Isabelle Huppert, the French actress?

Margaret, yes the quote is from the actress. I’ve read a few interviews with her. She seems to be smart & insightful. Never seen her in a movie, though!

I like the depth of field of the first one. It has layers.

robin, thanks. It is always interesting to me to see which photos elicit responses. The ones I like the best are often the ones no one cares about. Make no assumptions, eh?

Which one was your favorite?

I liked the one with the geese. Maybe because I had to work so hard to get that shot! My subjects were not cooperative.

Geese are like that.
