Grey skies and single digits still in upstate Western New York. It’s six. Brrr. Wind stopped, which is nice. Temps will rise as the day goes on.

One of the things I always do when visiting in Illinois is to walk in the park I enjoyed regularly when living there. As ti was early November, most plants weren’t at their best yet I managed to find color in a variety of place: in the dawn sky, in the sun hitting the trees […]
Monday walk…fall into color — This, that and the other thing
Living in today’s society, I find it very hard to experience silence. Sure, you can have a quiet moment now and then but if you’re anywhere near civilization, you will still have background noises – traffic, children playing outside, etc. When I say “silence”, I don’t mean that, I am talking about the complete void […]

Mid-December we experienced a brief very cold spell of weather across the UK, a very welcome change to the landscape, (for photographers at least), although I must admit I need a better pair of gloves as my fingers can testify. When you have Fibromyalgia pain and fatigue all day every day this experience was extremely […]
The Cold Spell # 1 — Dale Rockell Photography
One day earlier this week, the wind and rain had finally stopped, temperatures were in the 50’s and the sun was shining. Inside the house, our carpets were being cleaned so to stay out of the way I sat in the backyard to watch the birds. I’d put up new feeders recently, with seeds and […]
