I took a colleague to Mysore for the day, visited the Palace, and then the bird sanctuary. The boat ride was a trip... I didn't take many photos, but got a couple of the birds.

Kitchen Spider
I caught this spider in our kitchen. I just love the colors. It's too bad the camera didn't focus well at this range. Maybe I needed the flash, I don't know.
Home Alone
It's been a quiet couple of weeks. I've been at home alone. I spent most of last weekend cleaning up and organizing from the move. Got books unpacked, organized on bookshelves, clothes closet put in order etc. Not much exciting there. So I decided last sunday to go for a walk. It was late in the afternoon. I walked up 80 Ft. road across from Ramiah Hospital in RMV. I came across this house which had been cut in half.
The road was recently widened. We often drive by here on the way home, and I just liked seeing all of the colors open to the passers by. There are any number of smaller houses which have also been bisected further up the road on the opposite side. Sometimes I wonder if they had encroached on city property, or if they were 'condemned'. Did they get compensated for the loss of living space? Never know around here.
By the time I got close to home, it was already dark, and I tried out some night photography.
Didn't turn out too great, but still fun.
I'll have to try some more to see how I can get more of what I want.
Now I'm off to get my hair cut.
And then tomorrow I'm showing a colleague from Finland around Mysore. So, yet another palace visit, maybe go up the hills, and certainly try to see the bird park.
