Or so says my living room window (and these 59 sequential photographs I took through that window\u2026\u2026and 4 more from my kitchen window on the afternoon of April 11, 2026.)<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Let\u2019s start with the roof of that block-and-a-half-away project I\u2019ve now been shooting for over a year. It\u2019s finally rid of the tons of snow that buried it this past Winter and now shows something that resembles a colorful Spring-like abstract painting on the far right (which may be nothing more than a rusty trough), but it looks good.<\/span><\/p>\n

Can the neighborhood request that it be moved to the center of the roof for a bit of Spring symmetry (Springetry)?:<\/span><\/p>\n

The rest of the Shoot\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Time to go food-shopping for – judging by the size of the unfolded cart – what might be 30 people (just a guess………..and click to enlarge):<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Three casually-dressed strollers:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A wheelchair-bound gentleman and his phone (click to enlarge):<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Three vehicles parked in the municipal lot behind my building. Any idea what the top one\u2019s symbol on its rear window says?<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Young lady with an interesting message on the bag handles:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

(I won’t tell.)<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

B&W (photographic term) squared (click to enlarge):<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Her bouquet is quite colorful, but it\u2019s her black hoodie that says \u201cPINK\u201d:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The first of a few dogs out for a walk:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Three drivers entering\/exiting\/doing something else with their vehicles (click to enlarge):<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

One hand for bags and one for her phone:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Two cuties about to go for a walk (click to enlarge…..and make that THREE cuties):<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Gotta take a hair break:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Looking for someone:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Found him (with a leftover double-buns shot on top):<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Happy couples:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Somewhat less happy-looking couple in search of change for the meter:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Happily(?) hydrated:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A Happy Birthday balloon and another black top that says \u201cPINK\u201d:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Lively discussion (click first one to enlarge):<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Wish I could read his top:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Not my sharpest shots, but in the bottom one, it appears that Fido\u2019s looking to hydrate a tree trunk:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Seven floors almost directly below me were 8 shots just there for the taking\u2026\u2026\u2026so I took them! (click to enlarge):<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The sun was setting and I was in my kitchen scrounging for dinner when I saw this. As the plane got higher and higher, it was becoming less visible. After the fourth shot, it went out of view. I was surprised that I could see all (or most) of the plane in each one. Are those exhaust trails considered Spring colors?<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A photographically-interesting afternoon at home, I must say. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I hope you enjoyed it.<\/span><\/p>\n
