Seeking the light. And other stuff. But mostly the light.

    • A Little Bit of July

      Posted at 9:47 pm by Kris McNeil, on July 31, 2018

      The 365 Blog Circle is a collection of friends working through their 365 photography projects together. We are posting favorite shots on a monthly basis. Welcome to our July round up! 

      So with retirement comes lots of time to do whatever the heck we want. And this leaves me scrambling for editing time. Yikes! I worked on the shots I took at Cibolo Creek Ranch, which is where we went after the astrophotography workshop in June. I wanted to stay out in west Texas a couple more nights to practice the things I learned at the workshop. By day we did tours of the ranch land which was vast and beautiful in only the way west Texas can be.

      I’ve been playing more with my Instax wide film camera and decided to upload a few of my favorites from the summer. I have joined Susannah Conway’s August Break 2018 (#Augustbreak2018 on IG) and I think I might do the project with instant film. Of course, my usual m.o. is to start these month long projects and punt after 10 days. We shall see!

      Ahhh so what was good for July editing?

      We went to Space Center Houston one afternoon. We hadn’t been there in years, so it was a lot of fun. It’s such a treat to go places with my grown up kids. 204.365.2018 Redstone Rocket - NASA Rocket Park - Houston Texas

      207.365.2018 Red Schwinn - NASA Bikes
      The bike is part of NASA’s free range bike program. They have been in partnership with Schwinn since the 1960s to have bikes on the NASA campus that people can just pick up and ride from building to building. We saw them everywhere. They’re quite delightful.

      Well the blog circle people are either moving or traveling or super duper busy this month. Isn’t summer always like that? We think we have all the time in the world and then it’s time for August. This month is just me and Elyse, so we’re playing catch instead of going in a circle. She is on the move again! Go see her beautiful stuff.

      I hope this finds all of you well and happy this summer. XOXO
