I’d hoped to finish and post about my Paris painting (Lady in Paris 1889) I’d wrote about the 1st times I posted about our current move (Moving in Our 70s During Covid) – but, though I got to a nice stopping point, 1) there’s still a tiny bit I know I want to do, and, 2) none of the photos I took could pick up the few warm colors in the painting (very overcast w/occasional rains, see pic below).
The pic above is with my light meter adjusted to pick up more light, and the pic below is adjusted to see outside, which is closer to what it looks like right now.
Even with daylight bulbs overhead, still never got a good enough shot to post ’bout my Paris painting, but hopefully, if not tomorrow, then day after should be much more sun shiny, I hope 😊
A nice thing ’bout the cloudier days though is, I can see more clearly out the window at the new spring foliage, and our soon to be moved bird feeder – and it happened to be, as is most all day each day now that we’re in full spring springing to summer here in Austin, a bird was at the feeder.
You scan probably tell it’s “way” low on food, lol! A welcome chore to do later this evening ♥️
We’re gonna miss these little guys. They’re plenty resourceful, but the increasing urbanization, the changes in light patterns from us humans, all that, does make it harder and harder for them. And if they don’t make it..well, we don’t want that to happen ☺️
So is it my imagination, or is that little bird looking over at me to see if I’ll be adding more food, soon, to the feeder? 😊
Stay well everyone, and wish us continued good luck w/our move!
