June 6

.

Hey!  Look who's here!  It's Clarissa and Bo!  Back to their usual inept attempts at nest-building.





I could tell the pics weren't clear, but I wasn't sure why.  Every once in a while the camera and I disagree about what to focus on.  It makes up its mind, and I can't shift it.

Unless I aim at something different.....

So I aimed at something different, namely the corner of the sink, and whatever happened to be near it.  (The camera finds it soothing to be asked to focus on clear lines with lots of contrast.)

Looking at this (basically random) image after the fact, I am finding it not without interest.....



Cropped, cleaned up a bit, and color removed............

Let's call this Curves.........



With the fresco filter.



Poster-edged.



I've never been happy with the smudge stick filter before, but I think this is ok.



Water color.



Ok.

Erm.

Where were we?

Oh, yes, watching Bo and Clarissa......





Later.

Walking to yoga.




Walking home from yoga.



Looking straight up.  Remembering how many weeks I walked home in darkness, when I started taking yoga (back in January).....

Okay, Vicki. I think you should just knit a nest for this pair. They are quite limited and I'm feeling sorry for them.

I know what you mean. On the other hand, if they can't build a nest, I wonder if they can take care of babies....

Perhaps it's best to let them play at housekeeping but not actually attempt to raise a family.....
