PLAYING WITH GLASS

Love textured glass bottles, and how the light makes them look like tall buildings next to each other:

GIRL IN THE WINDOW

When the Portland Public Library was remodeled, they saved the statue of the little girl with the water bowl.    Instead of outside in the entryway, it's now in the front window.   I liked the view, and happened to have my infrared camera with me, so voilà!  I didn't bother to do a custom white balance, but I liked the colors I got just the same:

NEW RESIDENT

A brand-new visitor has taken up residence at my house. This is a red-tailed hawk; not sure if it's a parent or juvenile, but suspect it's a juvenile who fledged not long ago. S/He is still having a problem with a smooth landing, but it shouldn't be long before everything falls into place.

FOGGY PORTLAND, MAINE

Gotta love it!
