Spring Into Spring

CLondon52w18: Color Story

From the C.London website: Open For Interpretation

Walking along the Des Plaines River Trail, I observed the seemingly sudden changes ushering in spring. With a stand of repetitive vertical trees and the river for reflections, I took inspiration from the images of @fotoslasirena and tried some intentional camera movement. Although subtle, I like how the ICM carries reflections into the image foreground.

For decades, I wore collared shirts every day with bi-weekly visits to the cleaners for laundering.  Since retirement (and the pandemic), I just made my first trip to the cleaners in 15 months...and that was for laundering of only 2 shirts.

Sign Of The Times #2

Libertyville, IL

Located as an island in a parking lot, this bar had no signage and appeared to be abandoned.  Hope I'm wrong; looks like it would be a fun place to hang out post-pandemic.
