Today’s Photo-A-Day shot prompt: Glasses. We’re at Z in the A to Z Challenge. I give you a shot before I catch some Zzz’s. Here are reflections of…the way life used to be (thank you, Supremes). In this case, used to be means six hours ago. I give you a shot of my sunglasses. The better to see me with. [...]

Today’s Photo-A-Day shot prompt: My Sunday. I’m writing and editing today. But I did take a few minutes to sift through shots from last night’s Spring Concert. Our high school band and chorus brought us two hours of music, including voice, concert orchestra, and jazz band selections. As always, they rocked the auditorium.

Today’s Photo-A-Day shot prompt: earth. We’re at X in the A to Z Challenge. I give you lightning. Not only can it strike twice, it favors some locations.

Today’s Photo-A-Day shot prompt: childhood. We’re at W in the A to Z Challenge. I give you a little boy dreaming of big wheels. When I grow up, I’ll drive a tractor just like dad’s…

Today’s Photo-A-Day shot prompt: life is… And we’re at V in the A to Z Challenge. I give you a vibrant reminder that life is…always in bloom, ever in season, somewhere, life is…

Today’s Photo-A-Day shot prompt: I saw this person today. And we’re at U in the A to Z Challenge. Today I spoke with people by cellular phone, LAN line, text, email, facebook post and direct messaging. But I spent my day with an unconscious cat. She looked like this. So while I saw this person today…she didn’t see me.

Today’s Photo-A-Day shot prompt: time. And we’re at T in the A to Z Challenge. I give you spring snowfall over a courthouse clock in the National Road city of Greenville, Ill. The sands of time spill through all seasons. Most days they fall silently and out of sight. Some days, they fall as snow.

Today’s Photo-A-Day shot prompt: blurry. And we’re at S in the A to Z Challenge. Here’s a soft-focus shot of my son playing trombone at last night’s Habitat for Humanity benefit concert. Given the percentage of out-of-focus shots I shoot, pulling a blurry photo from the bunch wasn’t an issue. In this photo, the subject, though soft, is sharper than the surroundings. Blurring the [...]

Today’s Photo-A-Day shot prompt: on your mind. And we’re at R in the A to Z Challenge. Here’s a shot of Route 66 on the Chain of Rocks Bridge. I spent my morning searching for information and images at a library on Route 66 and the National Road, east of St. Louis, Mo. The National Road predates Route 66 by more than a [...]

Today’s Photo-A-Day shot prompt: button. And we’re at Q in the A to Z Challenge. I give you buttons and bows. Sheet music for Buttons and Bows, actually. It’s a musical number in the 1952 Paramount flick Son of Paleface, featuring Bob Hope, one of the more quixotic characters in cinema history. In fiction, characters like this are common. In life, they’re precious [...]

Today’s Photo-A-Day shot prompt: hello. And we’re at P in the A to Z Challenge. I give you a producto de Brasil shot in an Illinois storefront on Route 66. It’s the way I greet each morning. Hola!
