MADELEINE MONDAY

The egg hunt that Ellie attended on Saturday had photo ops with the Easter Bunny. Not to be passed up. This violates one of the cardinal rules of photography not to have things growing out of the head of subjects. Not much I could do here, although I did take out yellow caution tape in Photoshop.

BACK HOME - COLORED EGG CRAZINESS

Time to get out of New York and back to the advertised topic of this blog. I hadn't left the the house in a few days. There was a wild Easter egg run that Ellie wanted to do in a field at a local college. (That's her in the pale green sleeveless dress - the child is nearly impervious to cold.) A large field was strewn with plastic eggs containing candy. It was divided into three sections by age and, on a signal, the kids swept across it. It made us think of a cloud of locusts streaming over the earth, stripping everything in sight. 

The forty five minute excursion knocked me out for the day. No fever, oxygen saturation fine but completely out of energy. I think I'll drive to some of the local parks today and shoot flowers from my car window.
