What’s Up?
After seven straight days of great photography on the Japan in Winter IPT our eagle boat trip out of Rausu on the morning of Tuesday, 21 FEB was a big challenge. We drove three hours through beautiful blowing snow but when we got on the boat we were greeted by wind against sun […]

It was 1 degree F on Monday morning at Lake Kussharo, Japan. The Whooper Swan were cooperative as always. We finished off with flying and displaying Red-crowned Cranes right near our lodge. I will continue to have good internet access every day. I get home late on 28 FEB.

We lucked out with the sea eagles on DAY 2 WED FEB 14. The sunny forecast turned cloudy bright — ideal for the two eagle species — and the sea ice moved in the night before we got on the boat. Photos to follow. And to think that was only Day 2! I […]

Monday, February 13, was get-away day for the Japan group. We slept in, had a late breakfast, and then took a photo walk up the hill to the Onsen-ji Temple. Then it was back into our chartered van for the 3 1/2 hour ride to Haneda. We fly to Hokkaido in the very […]

Our last visit to the Monkey Park, my last ever, was my best ever, by far. Eight inches of fresh snow on the ground along with falling snow. And we ended off with several monkeys eating cedar branches in the snow. It was a totally amazing day. Despite losing many images to a […]

Not sure where I will be when this is published as the time and date changes from Florida to Japan baffle me. But at some point the group and the two leaders will be photographing Snow Monkeys, all hoping to create something new and different. I am hoping for snow 🙂

On Thursday in the Keio Plaza Hotel in Tokyo I enjoyed a day of resting comfortably, catching up on jet-lag, exercising, and stock-piling blog posts. I should have good internet access every day from now until the end of the trip. I get home late on the last day of February.

Important Addendum/Update
The brilliant “Bug” Bob Allen e-mailed me right after I posted this plea for help. Within ten minutes everything was back to normal. Linda kindly posted this: From Yahoo help here in the US, Error code 475 is “This can happen if you’ve sent a lot of messages in a short period of […]
Safe and Sound in Tokyo
I woke on Tuesday morning in the hotel by Orlando Airport at 3:40am. My flight to LAX took off a bit after 6:00am and arrived in LA a bit early. My outbound gate (41) was only a five minute walk from Gate 49 where we landed. I hung out in […]

My flight from Orlando to LAX was a piece of cake. I am on the plane to Japan now but still on the ground — it is 11:10am Pacific […]

It is early on Monday morning as I finish up this blog post. The Patriots won. Again 🙁 But you’ve got to hand it to Brady and Belichick; down 25 points and they did not give up.
I am 85% packed for Japan. I head to an airport hotel this afternoon for an early […]

On Saturday I re-micro-adjusted my 600 II with both bodies and two sets of TCs. I have made some positive changes that have really speeded things up and increased the accuracy of the results. Buoyed by my success, I re-micro-adjusted my 100-400 II with on of my 5D IV bodies and both 1.4x TCs […]
