This is the Wheelhouse building in Albany. Got there a little too late for really good sunset photos, but these fantastic windows still created lovely reflections.
At first I was uninspired by the sunset last night. We’d just missed being able to shoot an amazing (double!) rainbow and there didn’t seem to be a whole lot going on with the clouds. Then I decided to shoot from a lower perspective… and that made all the difference.

Walker Lake in Nevada, taken in January, 2007 on our way home from holiday celebrations in Arizona.
We went to the Oregon Zoo Brewers Festival last night. Not being much of a beer drinker myself, I was more interested in animals… but there weren’t too many out at that time of day.

Taken with the Droid, Retro Camera app, Little Orange Box.
My friend Susan posted a remark on Facebook this morning about Cambria and Cayucos, which reminded me of a trip we took to that area back in 2005.

Not the best shot of the pier, but I still kind of like it for its moodiness. To see a stunning, and more recent, photo of the pier with a gorgeous sunset behind it, check out this photographer’s blog. He also has several other photos of the central coastline that are worth the click over.
At the nursery several weeks ago, I was drawn in by a display of air plants and pretty glass planters. A hanging planter is pretty much a necessity in this house, what with the three cats who like to get into EVERYTHING THEY SHOULDN’T. Ahem.

Me and plants don’t generally get along, but hey, a plant that doesn’t need soil? Sign me up.
Haven’t killed it yet, and it’s starting to bloom:
