For multiple reasons, this is my least favorite time of the year, so I try to not dwell on it and spend my time playing with, and trying, different cameras, lenses, and processing … just in case I see anything worth photographing.

I would be better off if I could spend this month being thankful for having made it through another year and planning what to do next year; but, that is almost impossible given my age, the pandemic uncertainties, and the political and environmental conditions.

You would also probably be better off if I stopped posting depressing thoughts and pictures, but you can at least stop following me as I blunder through the winter.
