PhotoWalk Odessa DE

Let me start with, "rain never hurt anybody, " and then let me add, while rain is not a valid reason not to take photos it does play havoc with a socializing event like the planned PhotoWalk in Odessa DE tomorrow the 13th. So, and like my backside, this is still a BIG BUT, but we may postpone the walk one week.

If it's an intermittent rain and we can still walk and talk, we will go on with the Photowalk, otherwise we will hold off seven days and shoot for next Sunday at the same time.

Okay? Last minute decisions can be confirmed by calling my cell phone at (302) 723-2468.

Thank you.

P.S. Some wonderful photographs can be created during and after a rain. Especially watch for puddles, reflections, reflections and raindrops on leaves.

Can Fire Hydrants Have Weak Bladders?

Heavy rains in Delaware overnight left some huge puddles to contend with. So if one inch of rain equals ten inches of white stuff, we're under a snow emergency and I'm calling off work.

Historic New Castle (DE) has implemented a get tough policy on loitering. Anyone sitting on the benches after a "reasonable" time allotment will be met with a battle cry and a lighting of the wick.
