Welcome to my foto blog. I'm making a serious committment to take at least a picture a day for 2008. Each of these pictures are meaningful to me in some way either from the past or present. I'm a novice with photography eventhough I take pictures often for my other blogs. If you have any suggestions to help me with this journey, please leave comments. 1/1/2008

Something Noisy in the Sky



Yesterday while working on my blogs, I kept hearing a noise that appeared to be coming from the sky. At first I thought it was helicopters near my house as there is lots of road construction near my home. Also there are frequent accidents due to this massive construction. So it's not uncommon to hear traffic or even police helicopters.

So while I was working I kept hearing this noise and I thought something was really bad. I went outside and looked to the sky. There in my view was the blimp. I was surprised as I haven't seen any blimps in our area in years. I took some quick pictures as it was flying by fast. Later it came back by and it was advertising for Met Life.

Can you tell we had a beautiful weather day yesterday?

Ana:
Yes it was fun to see the blimp. Several years ago they came over more often AND what's even more fun is when the hot air balloons come by. That is spectacular. They haven't been by in a long time, though.

Hi Ellen,
I see that you added my photo-a-day widget to your blog, thanks so very much. I wanted to let you know I added you to my list of Photo-A-Day hosts and I also created a blogroll for all the EC photography blogs, you can find that under my blogrolls page on my blog. Nice blog you have and nice pictures too.

Jennifer: Yes they are very noisy and I can just imagine how they sound if I were closer to them. Thanks for visiting my blog!
