Playing with the light (and Pixel XL2)

When Sunset married a Rainbow. Yesterday.

For me, photography is all about capturing the light. There is lots of lovely interesting light right off my lanai.

Google just up graded the Pixel camera software to include a “Nightsight” option which is really super – if you can stabilize the phone. Young folk might not have to worry – but I am a little old and shaky.

Moving right along to this morning. 

Sunrise today

Had a great Thanksgiving with the hotel night auditor and a friend of hers today at noon. Since she doesn’t have an oven – our turkey was really a Costco chicken – and since Costco chickens are bestest as soon as you get them home – and since we are wise old women – we had Thanksgiving a day early.

What I took to Thanksgiving Dinner.  A little box of hearts. 

Tomorrow morning is “Decorate the Christmas Tree Auntie” time. And, I have plenty of leftovers for another feast. (Including Costco Chocolate Mousse Tuxedo Cake!)

On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart’s desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron. H.L. Menchen Baltimore Sun, July 26, 1920.

  1. Hello Peggy,
    my son and I finaly bought two pixel 3 ! (And we are happy with them)
    Yes, the nightsight feature is nice. And it’s interesting to play with it during daylight too (in semi low light). It gives some interesting shots. Less noisier maybe.

    Have a great day.
