Even more photos

I'm gonna learn how to do galleries, darn it. The Adobe software that came with my camera will do it for me, so I might start working on that soon. Today, however, I have some fine non-knitting photos!

The seagull chick hatched on Monday and I took a lot of pictures. Here are three good ones, and cute, too. Baby and one parent, baby at the edge of the nest (look at his little feet!), and the baby eating.

Last night I stood out on the roofdeck (well away from the seagull family!) and took some pictures of "Boston at night." (Warning, these are a little bit large.) The Massachusetts State House, a nearby intersection and the walkway of the courthouse, and the intersection near a hotel still under construction. Love that tripod. I'd like to take some more, but I don't have a lot of roofdeck access time left. Most of the others needed better focus which I'll need to do manually, but maybe I can spend another evening giving it another go.

So with all that photography, where's the knitting? I finished the second armwarmer today and I might take them over tomorrow, after some more documentation. I'm really happy with how they came out. I've been working on the Dale sweater and finished the front, so it really ought to be all done soon. I started swatching with a new yarn from the store in Rhode Island, but I haven't had a chance to photograph it in the light yet. Maybe... Friday? It's become that kind of week. I'm looking forward to days of sunshine that I don't have to spend at work! Just... inside... packing my apartment. Well, still work, but at least I can pause any time for photographing knitting.
