Mushroom and a windmill (photo post)
I've been silent a bit on the blog lately. Several reasons for that: things between American Teacher Girl and me are going very well, I've been off on a short trip to York (England), and I've been ill.
The trip to York was very nice, it's a beautiful old medieval town. I met some colleagues there, and did a presentation on my research that was received well.
ATG and me have been forcibly not seeing each other for 1.5 weeks. This because the same day I returned from York, ATG went to give workshops in the US for a week. She will return this morning (and, as the Book says: "there will be much hugging and snugling"...)
Although I have been ill with some persistent cold virus or whatever (I coughed my lungs out last night again), I did take advantage of the good weather of yesterday to go on a photo shoot. It is mushroom season, and I shot this picture of a "lawyer's wig" (Coprinus comatus):
On my way I also shot this picture of a former saw mill, using a polarization filter and the Tamron 17-50/2.8 lens:
So far this short post.

Hold on. . .they have windmills in the Netherlands? Who ever heard of such a thing? I say that image was Photoshopped! ;-)
Oh my. I don't think I'll be able to get this latest word verification jumble right. . .I think that Blogger has delved into Hebrew now.
I agree Acci - It's Shopped - I 've seen a lot of shops in my time and the pixels are definitely messed up over the blades - those are not clouds! :P
Glad to hear things are going well with you! Look forward to hearing more from you!
