Art Hill > March 16. 2009 Blues Brothers Found this in front of a music store in Geneva. The background was very busy so I tried selective coloring. Original is here http://arthill.smugmug.com/gallery/7557064_Hn5T7/1/#492557592_iuBiC-A-LB
Art Hill > July 29, 2009 Tall Ship Windy This is the ship we cruised on when I shot yesterday's fireworks shot.
Art Hill > June 3, 2009 Nest in the tree by our front door This is pretty high up in the tree and no good anlge for a shot. I got this from just inside our front door, shooting through glass. We have a second story window near this tree but branches block the view of the nest. We can also watch with binoculars from another vantage point but it's too far away to shoot with the lenses I have. Still I felt lucky to get this with both parents on the nest. Most of the time there is only one.
Art Hill > May 27, 2009 Amy We combined Memorial Day and a birthday party for my oldest daughter Amy. We got together at my youngest daughter's house. We're trying to remember at these get togethers to have somebody take my camera and get a picture of me - at least to record the fact that I was there. Amy's birthday isn't until this Saturday. It would not be possible to love someone more than I love Amy. She is unbelivably good at everything she does and is a fantastic Mother to my two little grandsons. We have always had a great realtionship - even during the teenage years. She is just a truly wonderful human being.
Art Hill > March 2, 2009 Double-crested Cormorant Showing a closer view of this bird, this time correctly identified :-) Everglades National Park. More in this gallery http://arthill.smugmug.com/gallery/7470124_kN2R8#481951232_WwNES
Art Hill > April 19, 2009 Standard Station Continuing my series on Route 66. This is called the Standard Sinclair Gas Station in Odell, Illinois. Built in 1932, it operated until 1975. It has been impressively restored. I wasn't sure how best to give you the sense of this place so I decided to put four images together. Note the old gas pump. The amount you wanted to purchase was pumped into the glass chamber and then gravity put it through the hose into your car. We were told that the road in front of this station had bumper to bumper traffic in the summer. So congested that the town built a tunnel under the road to get people to the large church on the West side of the road. Today is my Dad's birthday. He's been gone a long time but even after all these years I miss being able to share things like this with him. I'm dedicating today's image to my Dad in remembrance of all those times he drove us down Route 66. Who knows, maybe we got gas here 50 years ago.
Art Hill > September 9, 2009 Monet Bonanza We haven't had any water lilies for quite some time now but I saw a few buds getting ready. I was thrilled yesterday to go out and find all five varieties in bloom at the same time. This is the first time this has happened. Look closely and you can see two pinks, one white, one pale yellow and one burgundy. Got down as low as I could for this one. There's a shot from the other side of the pond here http://arthill.smugmug.com/Photography/September-2009/9512286_mY6ex/1/#643910439_djSir-A-LB Wasn't sure which one to use for POD.
Art Hill > September 1, 2009 Late Bloomer We were so surprised yesterday to spot this single clematis bloom in our yard. We thought the clematis were done for the season. You never know.
Art Hill > June 19, 2009 View from our deck The pond is looking good, the flowers are thriving, grass is in good shape and I just finished mowing. I like the way the yard looks when the afternoon sun filters through the trees. I had a hard time deciding whether to post this one or a panoramic shot http://arthill.smugmug.com/gallery/8438262_cuF7L/1/#568140410_vZtGC-A-LB If you happen to look at both and have a preference let me know.
