I’ve splashed into the vast catalog that is the FreeVee channel, and have now locked into what apparently was a very popular 1960’s era Western drama. One that aired over 270 episodes, each episode running (with commercials) for 90 minutes. A 90-minute Western drama. Why have I not heard of this before? Say hello to…

Wait, where are the photos??
Sunday morning. Mothers’ Day. And I’m camped out for a quick photo shoot in Corinth. Yep, I’m trying to find that perfect Saratoga, Corinth & Hudson train photo to enter in Competition Season 2023. There’s a small bridge across a little creek near the intersection of Heath Road and Route 9N, just before the SC&H…
Read MoreGoodbye to Mohler and Choo, D.D.S. – hello to my new dentist!
I am a person who resists forced change in my life. If have something that works for me, I will hold onto it for as long as possible. But a while back, I had to cut my dental team, known on this blog as Drs. Mohler and Choo, D.D.S., out of my life. And trust…

It’s Mother’s Day weekend, so make sure you get your mother plenty of flowers and treat her right. And by “mother,” I mean any person who actually provided true care and nurturing, it is not limited to birth mothers. It can include stepmothers, adopted mothers, and even fur baby mothers. Just so you know. And…

Read MoreSpectrum Cable sure knows me when it’s billing time, though…
When it comes to paying the necessary bills in my life, I do so with the knowledge that if I owe money, it must be paid. If I want lights in my house, then I pay the light bill. If I want to call someone, then I pay the phone bill. And if I want…
Read MoreWhen the 1919 Hudson River flooded in 2023.
It’s March of 1919, and the Albany Argus notes that the Hudson River is swelled to its bursting point. A combination of ice, a recent storm, and potential warm weather, turned communities on the Hudson River into panic centers. I now quote from the Argus, printed in its March 29, 1919 edition. “As the result…

Earlier this year, I captured some 3-D shots at the Albany Patroons / Lehigh Valley Legends basketball game. Of the several different 3-D shots I was able to snag … this one turned out the best. Sure, I would have preferred to get a nice sweet Patroons dunk or something like that, but I’ll take…

It’s not an 11’2″ clearance any more.
So yesterday, I drove up to Thatcher Park for some late Sunday afternoon photography adventures. Now to arrive at Thatcher Park from where I live, I would normally take I-90, get off at Exit 4, drive that long straightaway to pick up Route 85, drive through the old part of Slingerlands and into New Scotland.…

I’ve been having a lot of fun with this kaleidoscope lens – you know, shooting through it and getting some waycool “energy” photos out of it … So as you can imagine, the more I play with this, the more I want to do more with it. More, more, more. It’s almost the Andrea True…
