Autumn has arrived in Florida. As usual, it comes late, and will not stay long. Some even call it winter.

But here's a red leaf to prove it's merely autumn. Here's more.

Things are happening.

In case you didn't know, that is.

In the near future, I may say something. Or someone else may say something.

I may point to a space.

I may say, "Watch this space."

There might even be announcements. Who can say?

In the meantime, please enjoy this self portrait.

There's always a troll under the bridge.

Today I took the camera and went out for a hike. Can't bushwalk here; apparently, that's only back in Australia, where there's bush for walking. So here, it's a hike. Not a very long hike. And not very deep into the woods. I went back after making one turn because it led me right to the supermarket, which was not where I wanted to be.

Eventually, along the side of the creek, I found a place where I could easily descend. And I became a bridge.

There's a series of six flower pictures at my FlickR site.

I must admit something: the stars (and they are, in fact, stars) were captured in the Southern Hemisphere, where stars are much more plentiful. Some of the light in the background here is hundreds and even thousands of light years old.

I may live in Florida today. But when I look to the sky, it's always the Southern Cross I seek.

I couldn't decide which to go with today, so I'll leave it to you to decide. Choose wisely.

Also, if you check out my FlickR site, you'll see what happened when I found Carl Hiaason near the railroad tracks.

Additionally, if you listen to the voices in your Fruit Loops, you'd probably do well not to tell anyone else about it. Just a friendly suggestion.

I know it doesn't mean much to anyone but me, but...

The landscape at the top is mine, and this is the first piece ever shown in a juried exhibit, Photofest 2009, currently at the Airport Gallery in Tallahassee, Florida. Tonight was the reception.

Way I look at it, I've got a lot more work ahead of me--and I'm looking forward to it.
