A Quiet Day

With today being a “holiday” to recognize New Year’s Day that fell on Sunday, my activities were minimal. Actually, I was busy in that we had an EMS call during the overnight hours that then kept me up for a few hours. This morning I set a couple of tip-ups on the river with no fish caught. And I watched for woodpeckers that are debarking a couple of trees along the river - again, like fish, I had no luck seeing them.

Since finding wildlife today at close range for photos did not happen, I instead photographed compositions I thought were interesting. One was this Virginia creeper vine hanging against a white-barked tree. The view shows texture and details of things we don’t normally pause to look at.

A second image was this horse that walked toward my truck as I stopped at an intersection. I don’t normally photograph horses, but this one seemed to have character and wanted to pose, so I shot a picture of it.
