Here are ten more random photos from the archive for #tuesdayten

Here is a skyline photo of Chicago I got while taking the Wendella tour on an office outing. One tour takes you down the Chicago river the other tour takes you out on Lake Michigan. I like the lake tour better.

Here is another photo from downtown Chicago of the entrance to the Chicago Tribune building. There used to be a nice tea store in here that I used to take a break at. Sadly they shut it down after they fully remodeled the building and I went through some serious tea withdrawals.

Now for something from home. My wife made this orange peel spice candle after making some cinnamon apple cider with orange juice in it. These work great for making a nice holiday scent inside.

Here's a shot of my angel fish begging for food. I was trying to take a shot of the skull but he got into the frame. Hey man I'm hungry here feeed meee.

A couple summers ago I was obsessed with trying to get the sun behind clouds. This day it was nice and humid that filtered the sun enough for an interesting shot.

This is another summer sunset photo. This was a really hot humid day and the sun was barely able to shine through all the humidity.

This dove seems to be plotting how to poop on a new car off in the distance. Lately it has prefered expensive Teslas as its favorite pooping surface.

The dove doesn't have the greatest aim and these wasps had to take cover from the dove poop apocalypse inside a wooden fence.

Squirrel had to yell at the dove for accidentally hitting the walnut tree. Now he will have to ask the racoons to wash the walnuts in the lake.

P3199435 copy.jpg
This squirrel was unaware of the dove poop and started eating a fresh walnut... why does this thing taste off?!

That's all for now, thanks for looking :-)

although the photos you display randomly but look very impressive, the focus when I look at it is very sharp, that's what really impressed me..

I have a good focusing lens, but camera raw editing also helps sharpen things just a bit more too.

The wasp shot terrifies me. I get along with wasps. Just don't freak out and they really don't bother you. But... they still scare me a little bit 😅 That shot looks like its out of Aliens! I also always love your Chicago pictures probably because I haven't been to Chicago in many years.

The only times wasps ever got me was when I threw dirt clods at their nest as a kid lol. Otherwise they don't really bother anyone. I'm trying to get some gloomy chicago rain shots today, hope some turn out.

Love cloves and orange together. Never put a light in it like this. I normally slice an orange half and put the cloves in it and put it somewhere. Maybe it’s more subtle that way. But I am sure going to try this.
Great shots… love the sun behind the clouds.
Thanks for sharing @sketch.and.jam 👋🏻😊

Yeah the candle really brings out the scent of cloves and orange. Perfect for hot apple cider drinking.

Yep… can almost smell it. Will definitely get some oranges in the shop next time I go 😉
Or (hot) mulled wine 🍷 homemade…

Those guys hid inside a wooden balcony handle. I looked to see if any spiders were in there but found wasps instead.
