Haze.

See how dull that photo looks? Like an old one from 1960, low-quality film in the first place, and faded by time and sun besides?  I took that just a little while ago, in digital format.  That's the haze we have here right now, smoke from the El Rito fire, plus two more down by the Gila. It's dangerous to breathe air like this, so I'm masked every time I step outside right now. Doesn't make a difference to the eye burn or the headache, though.

Everything's late because today required errands again. On the plus side, items are shipped; on the minus side, my knees and feet will be in agony all day tomorrow. Can't be helped, apparently. Tomorrow's going to be another problem, but after that, hopefully I'll be here at home consistently for a while and can get caught up a little bit. Friday will be miserable with gale-force winds (and no rain; the land is already dry as ash and the grass is brittle and browning fast), but I'm planning on being indoors as much as humanly possible. Hopefully, Wings will be, too.

Speaking of which, I did get his four newest works posted the other day: the two arrow lapel pins (one of which is already spoken for),the cuff, and the ring (yes, it turns out I was right about that; the barrette pair will be a while yet). The stone in the is something really special; go read about it. Also, I clearly was not really lucky, so no gemstone bead sets yet, but maybe tomorrow or Friday, and he has two more silverwork items in rotation, too. All the links are listed below, so please share:
