Function vs Form – This is one of those odd conundrums that often troubles me. When form and function meet and reinforce each other, I don’t have a problem. Examples of this are my current camera, my Swiss Navy knife, and dare I say it, my Beretta.

In some cases the tension this causes for me is tangible and on-going. Five-minute read, 6 pictures

The second is that in the past year I’ve not had a lot of time to just sit and play with it. two-minute read. +1

I don’t always get my picture taken with the Presiding Bishop of The Episcopal Church, but when I do I make sure Congressman Emanuel Cleaver is in the picture too.

It was very dark unfortunately … But that’s the end of Lanie’s high school theater run. Though she still has to go to Nationals in June with speech and debate.

Keystone 8mm Home Movie Camera — I needed a stock picture for an advert promoting a Facebook Live Video event. Rather than buy something, I took a quick picture of a movie camera in my collection.

Langstone Mill – Besides being picturesque, Langstone Mill is interesting because it is the site of two mills. Besides the obvious windmill, there was also a tidal mill. Plus a bonus reminisce, and a picture from the seventies. 1 3

Watermill – Weald & Downland Living Museum. Who couldn’t resist taking a picture of this watermill with its reflection in the lower pool? There were lots of moorhen chicks and tiny ducklings around in the lower pool, and I’ll confess, I couldn’t resist taking a picture of them. 3
