As we slink away from summer, I thought a nice way to say good-bye would be next month’s header capture, “
emergence,” a photo I snapped while in France.
Watch for it, along with a brief story, on Wednesday.
More stuff added then, too, including details on new SFM projects and ARTvision previews.
Stay tuned.

You know how I love to come up with snazzy titles:
“Wheels of Fortune & Adventure: A New Bimmer Beginning”

Euro Blog.
Many thanks to Heinz, Daniel (pictured here) and so many other BMW officials who welcomed me with open arms.

Like I’ve said in my conversations with other riders, “Don’t send a photographer to do a cyclist’s job.”
Hence the lots of stopping to capture scenes while doing 70 miles over a two-day stretch. “
Great Oaks,” the header capture for wp.com this month, was an outgrowth of that ride - and is a symbol of country kindness you don’t find anywhere else.
On my return leg, I stopped at this familiar location and a gal came out to as me if I was OK. “I’m fine, just taking a breather,” I said. Sounded like their family was getting ready to sit down to Sunday brunch.
Everyone should be required to spend a day on a bike touring the countryside. You get an immediate appreciation for your surroundings, and every once in a while, you are surprised by kindness.
