Thanksgiving-Week’s End

Thanksgiving has come and gone, and another week is at an end. I hope that those of you who celebrate Thanksgiving had a wonderful day, filled with great food, conversation, family and/or friends, and moments to treasure.

I had a great week at my son’s house, and a wonderful Thanksgiving with my son, my two granddaughters, and with my daughter and son-in-law. We all chipped in, and did our part to make Thanksgiving a special day…creating our own food specialties, playing games, and making sweet memories.

The day after Thanksgiving, we went hiking at a nature center…saw some deer, ducks, beautiful lakes, streams, and other scenery along the way.

Nostalgia

For those of you who celebrate Thanksgiving, in the U.S., have a wonderful holiday. For those who don’t celebrate this holiday, have a nice week. I will be away…visiting family. See you when I return on November 26th.
I will be traveling through some back roads, on my trip, and hope to take several photos.

I like traveling through the backroads, the small towns, and the big city. Each environment has something lovely to offer.

From The Old Mill - to the river flowing through it,

and, from the architecture-historic and nostalgic, Tennessee continues to bring delight to my eyes.

The old Union Station, Nashville, TN, now a hotel and restaurant, with the exterior kept as it was…this is a historic building, on the National Register.

All About the Sky

Some sunsets are just overwhelming, with their blaze of colors and light, their flow and powerful beauty.

All About the Sky

I love a sunset where I can see silhouettes against the sky…for me it adds so much intensity to the visual.

Energized

I like the seasonal holidays, and how the coldness of winter is lit up, not only by a beautiful sunset, or a scene at dusk, but, also by architecture with lights, adding more visual festivity to the loveliness.

Almost Dusk

Along with a festive look, lights can add a warmth to a photograph taken on a winter night.

Nikon D80 - Check out the Review

If you are interested in purchasing a 10MP Nikon Digital SLR, then you might want to check out Dpreview.

From what I have seen, when testing this camera, in-store, it meets all the specifications stated, and would be an excellent camera to own, for either the semi-professional, or the professional user.
