Rusty, the New Office Dog

March 17, 2016February 9, 2022 bigbertha

My morning started out similar to the lyrics from “A Day in the Life” by The Beatles: “Woke up, fell out of bed, Dragged a comb across my head Found my way downstairs and drank a cup, And looking up … Continue reading Rusty, the New Office Dog

Ladybug Covered in Pollen

March 14, 2016February 9, 2022 bigbertha

This afternoon I planted myself near a flowerbed at the Dallas Arboretum.  My goal was to soak in the moment (a day off from work!), observe the plants and maybe spot something interesting to photograph. There it was.  A ladybug … Continue reading Ladybug Covered in Pollen

Creepy Doll Field Trip

February 29, 2016February 9, 2022 bigbertha

I couldn’t think of a better way to spend the day than taking Percival Sunshine out on a school field trip.  Here he is at a playground. Just look at his excitement on the slide! He didn’t even react when a … Continue reading Creepy Doll Field Trip

Creepy & Pretty

February 25, 2016February 9, 2022 bigbertha

My themes are all over the board and it’s getting worse as I develop new interests.  I like delicate lace embroidery, creepy ventriloquist’s dolls, insects, lost shoes and everything in between.   How to pick a theme for a photography blog? … Continue reading Creepy & Pretty

Mr. Liberty Wolfe

February 3, 2016February 9, 2022 bigbertha

What should I name my new creepy doll?  I toyed with different options.  Then traffic started backing up—I was somewhat grateful as it made it easier to navigate across multiple lanes.  And that’s when I had a realization.  I’m traveling … Continue reading Mr. Liberty Wolfe

Percival Sunshine!

January 29, 2016February 9, 2022 bigbertha

I spotted him at my favorite antique store in Dallas.  But my friend strongly advised against purchasing the doll.  In fact, very few friends and strangers supported me.  An informal poll I ran that day produced the following results: 15 … Continue reading Percival Sunshine!

Ant on the Run

July 20, 2015February 9, 2022 bigbertha

This is part of my ongoing Industrious Ant Series.  When I stopped to adjust my camera settings this ant had fled the scene by at least 2 feet.  It’s very frustrating to focus on a tiny ant on the run, … Continue reading Ant on the Run

A moment in time

June 29, 2015February 9, 2022 bigbertha

I was sifting through a month’s worth of photos this evening – not a task I enjoy.  But the alternative was to catch up on work.  Photo sorting won out – at least for a few minutes! This photo was … Continue reading A moment in time

Elegance in the Garden

April 22, 2015February 9, 2022 bigbertha

I took a Monday off from work last month to visit the Dallas Arboretum.  Zero color/lighting adjustments were made to the photos in Photoshop or any other program.  What you see is what I photographed just as I saw it. … Continue reading Elegance in the Garden
