Makes me twitch

Makes me twitch, it does. Most of the pictures I took on this outing with Kate & Terry are lousy. Somehow I lost my focus and got the exposures all wrong. Bah! There is so so much to learn about this DSLR photography stuff. This Great Blue Heron posed with great patience and I messed up. Guess I won't be putting heron pictures from this outing up here after all.

Was Love Then

Was love then like a bag of assorted sweets passed around from which one might choose more than once? Some might sting the tongue, some invoke night perfume. Some had centers as bitter as gall, some blended honey and poison, some were quickly swallowed. And among the common bull's-eyes and peppermints a few rare ones; one or two with deadly needles at the heart, another that brought calm and gentle pleasure. Were his fingers closing on that one?
