A Walk in the Woods
Sunday afternoon I took a walk down to Carkeek Park, my local beach access and getaway. Drew's been letting me borrow his digital camera, a nice 5MP Sony. Digital takes a little getting used to when you're comfortable with a film SLR. I have a tendency to take just one carefully planned shot of each subject, whether or not that particular shot turns out. With instant (though not always entirely accurate) replay available, I'm finding that I need to become a little more free with my shooting.
As I entered the woods, I found a stump with a spidery root design overtaking it.
After I had wandered the beach for a while, I found a real spider. Spiders are not hard to find in Seattle--at least not in my neighborhood.
Finally, I followed the path along the Piper's Creek, heading home through the leafy shadows.
Beautiful pics, girl! I think I really need to buy a new camera too.
