No place is boring, if you’ve had a good night’s sleep
and have a pocket full of unexposed film.
~ Robert Adams (American – Photographer / Born: May 8, 1937)

The last supermoon of the year 2020 is caught in the trees as the full flower moon approaches moonset in the early morning hours of May 7th.
Robert Adams quote could be updated a bit: No place is boring, if you’ve had a good night’s sleep and have a camera in hand. The days of film are almost at an end with only the most devoted collectors using the media to take pictures. Even phone cameras are capable of taking amazing shots, but I still prefer the dedicated camera for taking pictures.

COVID-19 world pandemic is still causing social distancing. The USA is lessening restrictions even though many scientists advise against loosening of the restrictions and predict a second wave that could be worse than the first.
Here in Ontario the great debate is ongoing whether cottage owners should be permitted to go to their properties during the social distancing measures. If I owned a cottage (paid taxes, utilities, insurance and upkeep) I wouldn’t hesitate to go to my cottage to ensure the property was secure and to do the annual maintenance tasks. I would also want to ensure that my property wasn’t being used by squatters or by others in my absence.
