Beautiful photography always. Thank you Professor and Buddy. Hope you have enough hours in the day for rest and relaxation, photographing and writing. I’m setting my alarm clock for an hour ahead.

“Daylight Saving”

by Dorothy Parker

My answers are inadequate

To those demanding day and date

And ever set a tiny shock

Through strangers asking what's o'clock;

Whose days are spent in whittling rhyme-

What's time to her, or she to Time?

Storm tossed snowy scene. It speaks as many of us feel in America today, tossed and stormy inside. Sleep well Heather and Buddy. Thank you for your vision.

'We can come back to 'it' tomorrow. 'It', being our 'America'.

HCR -- the photos are always, always exquisite consolation prizes for the nights we don’t get to read another of your spot-on helpful analyses or history lessons. At first glance this one looked like black and white photography. And yes, it is--but not just. The weathered yellow of the boat is an important aesthetic inclusion. I suspect that Buddy Poland knew what he was doing with it, just as Spielberg knew in “Schindler’s List” when he gave us the little girl with the red coat.

Over and over again I find myself saying "This one, this one is my favorite so far" and each time your Buddy surpasses himself again. I don't know if he will be able to do so this next time. This

image is sublime.

I have fond memories of living in Portland in the early '70s.

I drove up to Aroostook County one January day and saw snow piled up along the highway to the tops of the utility poles.

Another beautiful evocative photograph. Thank you. Oddly, though it evokes the damp chill we also are having, there is something very cozy and embracing about it. As if the viewer has just tied off, and is looking forward to the warmth in the cabin behind. Peaceful.

One more storm on its way, then I hope we are truly on our way to spring. I hope tomorrow is the last time I have to change the clocks. Don't care which way they set them as long as they just leave them there year-round.

Good-night, everyone.
