Well, I don't know that I can convince even myself that these represent the theme Point of View. I will say April was an interesting month filled with an exciting music filled weekend that culminated in a total eclipse of the sun. Then ended with the beginning of a wonderful adventure filled trip with my gorgeous wife! Regardless, here are five photos that stood out among the many I took this month. I didn't even include any of the concert photos. You'll have to check out my Flickr for more of that. And I'm sure you'll be seeing more of my trip next month.
This was my first total solar eclipse. I didn't think that much of it going in to it. I figured it would be cloudy if I spent too much time planning something for it and I had seen several partial eclipses. Let me tell you, if you haven't seen a total eclipse, you don't know what you are missing. I find myself planning to try to get to Spain for the one in 2026 now. It was indescribable.
We had a rattlesnake at the house this spring and Amy said there was no way she was sitting in the bluebonnets this year. So, my pretty girl, Charlie, kept the annual Bluebonnet tradition alive for me.
Let's change our point of view now. This was from the vaporetto from the airport the day we arrived in Venice. It was my third time there, my wife's second. We were last there on our 5th anniversary. This June will be our 30th so we celebrated a little early. We are here for a couple of days before boarding our cruise of Croatia, Montenegro, Albania, and several sites in Greece; Corfu, Sami, Nafpilon, and ending in Athens. 
This was a church turned art exhibit in Venice. The artist is Reza Aramesh. Those are porcelain underwear on the floor and the statue at the end is a man in a stage of undress. There was audio playing throughout of prisoner numbers and names. The church was home of the Order of San Fintin that comforted prisoners before execution.
And finally, the Bay of Kotor, Montenegro. We awoke to a slow sunrise cruise through the bay of Kotor up to the port. There was only space for one ship so we made anchor out a bit. On the left you can make out the Fortress of Kotor with the wall running up to mountain. It was a beautiful trip.
There are my five. I hope you will take a look at the others on a lil hoohaa's blog. Until next month when we see what we can come up with again!
