Beauty is everywhere waiting to be captured
I was born at the American Hospital in Neuilly-sur-Seine, France. I find inspiration in the lives of so many people from Joan of Arc to Oscar Wilde. While my primary avocation is photography, I also enjoy philosophy, theology and most of all, history. My beloved wife, Robin Anne Smith, who passed away in 2013 is an inspiration to me. My beloved partner, Dana is also a great support and inspiration to me. I'd be remiss if I did not mention my cats: Maxwell, Nigel, Pirouette and GarGar. View more posts
I love how more people decorate for Halloween now. It makes the autumn season so festive! Soon now the Christmas decorations will start to appear. Last year there would be Christmas and Halloween stuff out at the same time. 🙀
I know what you mean. It used to be that you didn’t see any Christmas decorations or hear any jingles until after Thanksgiving. All that has changed. I’ve started noticing Christmas stuff even before Halloween. Have you ever seen the movie Brazil? In that one, Christmas is “celebrated” all year ’round. Awful but that seems to be the trend. LOL
