Well, I've really gone and done it.

Like my father (and my grandmother, my sister, my aunt, my other aunt, my other other aunt, my cousin, my other cousin, my other other cousin and so on), I've got a blog.

But what does one write on a blog? My dad seems to mostly write about politics and birds. Following his example, I should use this blog to discuss subjects too unbelievably boring for actual conversation. (Only kidding, Dad.)

For now I suppose I'll just wing it.

But to keep you interested, here are a few photographs from a black and white photography class I took last semester. The long hours in the dark room became almost therapeutic. Pictured at left is a column from the Rome City Auditorium in my hometown of Rome, Ga.




This is my favorite. But then, as a journalism student, I'm rather excessively fond of newspapers. This particular newspaper is The Telegraph, the newspaper of Macon, Ga. And none other than the comic section!


There are about two hours in the day when this picture would turn out. I guess I was just in the right place at the right time, but I love the way the lamp is shadowed on the wall.

What a clever name to your blog - I love it! When I saw the link to my blog, I had to look and see who it was. YEA! You joined the family blogging tradition. And, may I say it again - I LOVE your blog title. Your black and white photography is great. Did you develop the film yourself?

It's about time.

You are not fair. I post as many snakes, wildflowers, and insects as birds.

I also post mine own poetry and that of others, and stories about my daughters, and youTube videos, and school ruminations...

I like your photography.

Welcome to Blogdom!

Great photos Lilian. Thanks for sharing. It's been a while since I worked for the R N-T and am glad to see they upped their standards for staff since they hired me. ;-)
