Tables test with photos

Merhaba,

  I’m working on learning Tables.  A good thing to do when the weather is full of Donder and Blitzen.   “Now, Dasher! now, Dancer! now, Prancer and Vixen!

On, Comet! on, Cupid! on, Donder and Blitzen!  http://www.bartleby.com/248/27.html  Donder and Blitzen mean Thunder and Lightning and as there have been lots of Christmas doings lately I thought that was an appropriate way, if very wordy, to describe the weather we’re having right this moment.  My Wednesday Group is to begin in 45 minutes so hopefully this will tire itself out before then.  I only have to walk down the dock, but I’d be drenched before I’d gotten half way and my watercolor would be all water and no color!

The one nice thing about rainy weather is the effect  dramatic clouds and light have on the scenery.  Here are some photos I took the other morning and also some seagull photos I took trying out the zoom lens on my camera.

The color as it was: the cloud patterns were dramatic!

The rainy days make for great photos.
