Just some moody fall images from last weekend headed for the time-lapse stack that I’ll finish up over the holidays.
It’s also deer season, meaning that the hunters are driving them into our yard. Just one of the bolder ones in a herd of a dozen.

Looks like the Ithaca Journal is livestreaming tonight’s Shaleshock Benefit concert. (More properly, the Life is Water, A Benefit Concert to Defend the Finger Lakes Against Unsafe Gas Drilling, featuring Local superstars Sim Redmond Band, The Horseflies and Donna the Buffalo.) They’re doing soundchecks now (~4:30). But it should be rockin’ later on.
For you folks who aren’t from around these parts. This is a fundraiser for the major environmental issue facing us here in the Finger Lakes and surrounding area. We sit atop the Marcellus Shale — one of the biggest deposits of natural gas left in the country. But the methods they want to use to extract it ‘economically’ put our rich water resources at risk.
Hey. It’s gray here. But at least we’ve got abundant, clean water. At least for now.
Visit Shaleshock.org for more authoritative info on the subject. And enjoy the concert.

Annual ritual last Tuesday: I shot students with their final projects for the semester in my friend Marcia’s Art of Horticulture class. View this year’s gallery or galleries from previous years.

Last week, I received the first hard copy of my new bloom day scan calendar. I was so impressed with the quality of the printing that I pulled together a second calendar of photos.
So those of you who have requested calendars over the years, you can visit zazzle.com and order them online.
I haven’t had time to master all the features of zazzle.com yet. Not sure that I’d want to make a living off zazzle sales. But if you’ve ever thought of making a few calendars or notecards from you images, it’s worth a try.

We’ll start Christmas favorites next week. Meantime, here’s The Cave Singers (darker side):
Live @BBC version. Great sound quality.
Lighter side: Summer light.
Live version. Decent sound.
