Finally

At last, the masks have arrived: the ones that we ordered a month ago. It is a good thing that I chose the expedited option. I wonder how long we would have waited otherwise.

There were three. In addition to Sue's, this one seems to go well with my cap. The one not shown is a Canada-Maple Leaf theme. Perhaps I will get a pic of that one too before I go to post.

I am smiling this time. Can you tell?

With poor weather for a few days, I haven't done much photography. I don't like taking photos in harsh light during the middle of the day, but one day, with time to kill, I did anyway.

Knowing that regular photos wouldn't work well, I experimented with in-camera double exposures. I really don't know how to do these, and I think this style is pretty well done by trial and error anyway.

This is one result where the spire of townhall is superimposed toward the bottom of the main image. It might be something to try to work on more although I think it takes better artistic vision than I possess. I was pretty well just shooting randomly, trying to figure out how it works.

After more than 3 months of keeping pretty isolated and not grocery shopping, I am disposed to resume the task. Shauna opines that she feels that if you have to be out and about, grocery stores are about the safest place to be. Sue doesn't like grocery shopping, but I don't mind wandering the aisles, so I am somewhat looking forward to getting back to it. Somewhat.

Online ordering and pickup has worked very well, but we seem to order more than we need, particularly in terms of goodies. For example, we currently have three boxes of these types of cookies, each coming from a different order.

And here we go with the other mask that I mentioned at the outset: a good mask for a Canadian, especially with Canada Day rapidly approaching. But there's more than the mask here. When I went out recently with so much paraphernalia, I decided that I wanted to share my look here. Not only did I have my hat and mask but also my streaming device for my hearing aids hanging around my neck and plus my sunglasses with a cord. I attach them with a cord, so I can easily remove them from my eyes but still keep them attached when I am using the camera. That's a lot of stuff wrapped around my neck and head.
