What was that TV game show with prizes behind Door 1, Door 2, and Door 3? I cannot remember. But, I do remember the doors . . .

Backlit
I went out around noonish when I decided to shoot the roll of Tri-X 400 and have it pushed in processing. Is this the result of pushing, or did hte lab fail to do it.? I have no idea! Nonetheless, I really enjoy the silhouette of the tree and branches against the midday sun.
Outside the Senior Center
Another one of the bronze statues in the complex which houses our public library, teen center, and senior center. Behind it all is a neighborhood park, complete with pond, some hiking trails, barbecue and picnic areas, as well as a creek and playground. It’s a place where you can do a lot of things and find a number of resources for all ages. It’s a true asset to our community.
At the Children’s Library
I decided to load up a roll of Kodak Tri-X 400 and have it pushed at the photo lab to +2. I had done this with Ilford HP5 with good results. Here – did they push it or not? I am completely unsure!
We have a wonderful library where I live. There is a huge children’s section, separated from the main library. Child-size chairs and tables, activities, fun books and research books. I go there often just to enjoy what kids (and big and old kids) get to read. This statue is outside the entrance to the children’s library, one of a small number of statues found scattered around the grounds.
Mexican Sage
Black and white does not do justice to the beauty of Mexican sage. The flowers are soft and somewhat plush, with white and dark lavender to purple blooms. The leaves are long and slender, slightly hairy, and release that fragrance typical of sage when crushed. It’s a lovely garden plant, excellent in dry climes, is perennial, and requires little maintenance. Besides all that, it is an excellent plant for a beautiful green natural dye.
