Subject: Photo Post: New SLT Feature Author: Wes [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 22:44:32 01/01/13 Tue With the coming of 2013 I'm introducing a feature I call "Photo Post." I'm a pretty good photographer, but I tend to only take photos of things I need to. I know I often pass by the opportunity to take interesting photos because there's no reason to take them and I have no place to use them. As a result I miss a lot of interesting shots. So, my New Year's resolution is to put up a photo with each post -- it will force me to get out and take more photos for the sake of taking them! Unless things get goofy or the weather turns lousy, each photo in Photo Post will have been taken since the previous posting. I hope to avoid too many landscapes and cute cat shots. These photos will almost certainly not have anything to do with the story, and in most cases I won't do any description of them -- if it's needed I'll mention it in the "Newsbox" to the left of the current post. The photos will hopefully change with each post. The photo can be viewed larger by clicking on it. This is an experiment, so we'll see how it works out. -- Wes [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

I guess they were recently taken by you. Since I live in the Gulf South, there is rarely snow. It only snows once every 10 years or so and then it usually melts the next day. I miss the snow since I lived in "snow country" from ages 4 through 13. Thanks for the pictures and memories. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

My only suggestion is that you put a caption at the bottom of the photograph. For instance, I was wondering where the wall was located. Thanks. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> Subject: Re: Photo Post: New SLT Feature Author: Wes [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 09:51:58 01/09/13 Wed This is the old Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railroad Bridge over Bean Creek in Hudson, MI. The majority of my photos will be taken within ten miles of it. I'll think about how to do discriptions with the least fuss. -- Wes >I'm enjoying your photographs, so far.

Is this what you meant when Randy described a November day in Spearfish Lake like Hell with fire burned out? [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
