It’s Getting Late … Been thinking of joining me on the San Diego IPT? It is getting late. Consider taking advantage of the largest-ever late-registration discount. Details below. The Stronger Image? Which of today’s two featured images appeals to you more? All are invited to leave a comment and let us know why they […] Forewarned is Forearmed … I will have a comprehensive SONY Camera Body User’s Guide ready by the end of January. It will be priced oppressively. That means that it will be outrageously expensive. Folks who purchased their gear using my B&H affiliate links or through Steve Elkins at Bedford Camera will receive a very generous […] What’s Up? Private client Harry Lerner and I enjoyed a second great morning session on Saturday past at DeSoto. In the same small bay that we had worked on Friday morning conditions were even better. We had a nice collection of handsome wading birds but this time they were feeding and catching shrimp in lovely, […] What’s Up? I met AE Pi (Florida State) fraternity brother Harry Lerner early on Thursday evening to set up his a9 and his a7R IV. Our plan was to do two sessions on Friday and then a final session on Saturday morning. But the early weather forecast was on the dire side — showers followed […] What’s Up Thanks to all who left holiday wishes at yesterday’s short blog post. I’ve been swimming every day with the pool at a very comfortable 76 or so degrees. I went down to the lake this morning and did some underexposed testing. As I figgered, the images made at the right exposure looked […] What’s Up? The sun finally came out briefly yesterday and it was sunny with blue skies at ILE at 8:30 on Tuesday, December 24 but by 8:45 the clouds had returned in force. As the pool temps were up from a low of 70 to 78 degrees, my swim on Monday afternoon was absolutely balmy. […] The GALAPAGOS Photo Cruise of a Lifetime IPT/The Complete Galapagos Archipelago Photographic Experience August 17-31, 2021 on the boat. 13 FULL and two half-days of photography: $14,999.00. For this trip to run, I need ten deposit checks in hand by June 15, 2020. In the event that it does not run, […] What’s Up? I’ve been walking every morning and swimming every afternoon. The pool was up to 73 degrees on Friday and a rather balmy 75 degrees on Saturday. On Friday, a cold northwest wind whipped through the pine trees as I swam. Saturday was as grey a day as I have seen — if it […] What’s Up? I optimized the six images for this blog post (in less than 30 minutes) while waiting for my early morning flight from Islip to Orlando on Thursday, December 19, 2019. It was a bit nippy on Long Island when I exited my cab at the airport at 4:11am: 16 degrees F, with me […] What’s Up? I changed my flight from late on Thursday to very early on Thursday (tomorrow, 18 DEC). Jim will be picking me up at Orlando just a bit after 9am. I was glad to learn of the sale of Jim Miller’s Canon 600 II and his 1.4X III TC within hours of being […] What’s Up? While I enjoyed Hamilton I was not thrilled by it. It was quite long, I do not love rap music, they really twisted the history, and seeing a great cast of talented Black actors and actresses with amazing and powerful voices portraying slave traders was a bit disconcerting to me. New Listings […] What’s Up? The Book of Mormon was energy-filled and as superb and as wildly irreverent as advertised. I just love great musicals. Cody Jamison Strand in the role of Elder Cunningham totally stole the show. The Book of Arnold indeed … Sunday was the Metropolitan Museum of Art in the morning and Hamilton at 3pm. […] What’s Up? As I began working on this blog post for the second time, it was 1:07pm on Thursday, December 14, 2019 and I was on the LIRR train to Ronkonkoma. I was thrilled to have made the 12:58 train. I could not wait to have brunch when I got back to Lissy’s house (after […] What’s Up? It’s 6:38am on Tuesday, December 10, 2019. I am at the gate at MCO headed to Islip. I will be doing an Event Space program at the B&H superstore on Wednesday and Thursday, seeing Billy Joel at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday evening, and seeing Hamilton and the Book of Mormon on the […] What’s Up? I am busy packing for Long Island. Bringing some of my SONY gear for the Event Space “Birds in Flight” program on Wednesday. And I may get out a bit with good friend Tom Pfeiffer the week of 15 DEC … Wednesdat evening I will be seeing Billy Joel at the Garden for […] What’s Up? Dr. Cliff Oliver’s intermittent fasting/keto diet/no insulin plan (suggested originally in part by good friend Anita North), seems to be working quite well. My blood sugar levels are getting close to normal. I weighed 173 pounds this morning, December 8, 2019, and have been feeling and sleeping great. And swimming a half-mile or […] What’s Up? Bosque must have tired me out. I slept nine hours each of the last two nights. On Thursday got back in the pool for the first time in two weeks. Seventy-three degrees is quite chilly but with my snorkeling booties and two neoprene hats I was not cold until I got out. […] What’s Up It is 10:23am Mountain Time and I just began typing. I am at the gate at ABQ headed for Houston Hobby and then Orlando. If all goes perfectly, Jim will be picking me up at MCO at about 7pm. After we stop for dinner we should be home about 9:30pm. I woke early […] What’s Up? The morning of Monday December 2, 2019 was my least productive morning at Bosque this year. The sky was dead-clear and the bulk of the fly-in was late so I hightailed it to the crane pool. The winds were light from the NNW and the birds were taking off every-which-way. I moved and […] |
