The other day
The other day I found myself out for a walk in the blustery North wind… and despite the bitter cold, I couldn’t resist taking a few shots:
Errands
Even when I’m out running errands, I end up working. See? Working while trying to take a break isn’t really such a terrible thing, mind you… Do you have a hard time turning off your work brain, dear readers?
Today’s fresh textures
After taking most of last week off, I thought I’d start the week off with a few fresh texture finds:
