above the tarmac the lights were icy green

I'm feeling the cold of winter approaching quickly outside the windows of my apartment.

TL and I went to the coast yesterday in the afternoon to take pictures of the deserted waterfront. I understand now why it was deserted. We almost froze to death and barely made it back alive. The picture above is one of my favorites from the day. Something about the contrast works too well in my mind. I love it. The one below also tickles my nipple and makes me all photo happy. I hope you enjoy them. There wasn't any cropping or post-processing done on either image. It all just worked from the start. If you click on the image it will take you to the flickr page and you can see the big copy of each. As always, if you want a full resolution copy just ask.

O will be here in just about 18 days. I really can't explain how excited I am about her arrival. I feel like we've made a big milestone in this whole thing. The strange part is that we haven't just been holding on, we've actually grown stronger through despite the distance and separation.

18 more days. Two weeks of work. Holiday parties. Cold mornings. Red wine. 18 days.
