This set of photos were taken from the Black Diamond Middle School football field, showing Mount Diablo with a snow cover that goes down to the foothill level. This snow cover is one of the best since the one in 1991.

Today was another good day. Again for the most part of the day, there were no health-related issues. Finally a day with no stomach cramps, dizziness, sweating and lack of concentration. I even got up early to have breakfast with Dianne before anyone else got up.
This set of photos were taken in the backyard of our Heavenly Bamboo, also known as Sacred Bamboo. However, the plant is not bamboo but an erect evergreen shrub.
As before, I used the Auto, Program, and Aperture Modes for each set with four different f-stops, focal lengths.

Today was again not a good day. For the most part, today was a repeat of the last four days, dealing with stomach cramps, dizziness, sweating and lack of concentration. After getting dressed and making the bed I broke out in sweat. I went downstairs to have breakfast @ 8:30. Shortly after I had strong stomach cramps and some dizziness. They lasted for about 45 minutes. Finally a break???
Another day without rain, but instead we have very low temperatures, 33F in the morning. Today I selected to take photos of our String-of-pearls, a Succulent.
As before, I used the Auto+, Program, and Aperture Modes for each set with four different f-stops, focal lengths and, two directions. This gives me enough photos to figure out which combination of settings does what and which to use in the future.

Today was not a good day. For the most part, today was a repeat of the last three days, dealing with stomach cramps, dizziness, sweating and lack of concentration. Like yesterday, I had a hard time doing anything because of the lack of energy. I dozed off many times, which did not help to get things done. Hopefully, soon there will be a better day.
The rain is gone, for now, instead, we have very low temperatures, 36F in the morning. Today I selected to take photos of the other Amaryllis we have. This one has no bulbs, only leaves, which is rare.
As before, I used the Auto+, Program, and Aperture Modes for each set with four different f-stops and focal lengths. This gives me enough photos to figure out which combination of settings does what and which to use in the future. Today I used only one direction for shooting.
