196 - Waiting For A Plane
Well, I was supposed to be out of town this weekend, and was looking forward to the trip quite a lot. But then "Things Happened" and I could not go. Bummer. So I thought I'd catch up on stuff here at home, and did to some degree but didn't really get much done. Double bummer. Such it is.
At least I spent some time with a few photos that have been waiting for me to work on them. That makes me happy.
Have airport duty this afternoon which brought this photo taken last Monday to mind ...
I like airports, at least when I'm not rushing for a connection. "The interactions of people moving with purpose." I found some others taken earlier this year on my trip to Denver that I haven't processed yet, expect a few more soon.
