What’s Up? I worked on this and other upcoming blog posts over the course of several days. I am putting the finishing touches on it at 4:15am Sunday morning, February, 7, 2016. I am at a hotel just outside the airport and will be on their 5:30am shuttle. I fly to Los Angeles this morning […] What’s Up? Friday was a two-zillion e-mail day, a little bit busier in that regard than is usual. The air was quite chilly for my swim but the pool was only down one degree to 77 so I was fine until I got out. I was pleased to learn that Steve Leimberg’s 1D X […] What’s Up? I spent most of the morning ironing out final details and info letters for two sold out IPTs: Namibia and the UK Puffins and Gannets trips. I still have lots of work to do on both of those. I have just started packing for the big Japan trip. I skipped my swim with […] What’s Up? Jim and I left Melbourne before 8am on Wednesday morning and were back in the home/office by ten. After a nice swim in the 78 degree pool I spent the rest of the day working on this blog post and answering too many e-mails, most dealing with Used Photo Gear stuff. Another cold […] What’s Up? Tuesday was an artie holiday: no swim, no ice bath, no exercises. Jim and I left for Melbourne at 2pm and met some of the camera club’s boys and girls for an early dinner. Patrick Sparkman’s 70-300 sold on day two for the full asking price. He’s hot. The program at […] What’s Up? Me. Early. With thoughts of the new camera racing through my head, I couldn’t sleep. I started this blog post at 3:02 am and published it at 4:18am. Canon EOS 1D X Mark II The much rumored Canon EOS-1D X Mark II as announced last night at 12:01am Eastern time. […] This Just In! Canon announced the release of the new EOS-1D X last night at 12:01 Eastern time today, February 2, 2016. Click here for my thoughts on the new camera and all the gory details. Canon EOS 1D X Mark II The much rumored Canon EOS-1D X Mark II as announced […] What’s Up? I put the finishing touches on my Tuesday evening slide program for the Camera Club of Brevard. And enjoyed a balmy swim with the pool at 76 degrees and the air temp in the mid-70s. I did my knee, shoulder, and core exercises, and enjoyed a relaxing but cold ice bath: the water […] What’s Up? I recently sent a review copy of the Southern Ocean Photography Guide to good friend Joe Kaplan, a member of the Cheesemans’ Ecology Safari Expedition staff team. Joe is a birder, zodiac driver, and auctioneer extraordinaire who has been wonderfully helpful to me in many ways on each of my four trips with […] What’s Up? I finished the Southern Ocean Photography Guide but learned from an early reviewer that none of the links in the PDF work. 🙁 I finished an article for Helen Slaughter-Saccone for the spring issue of Nature Photography magazine. And a swim and an ice bath. Sash Dias sold his used Nikon D4 […] What’s Up? Most of Thursday was spent finishing the Southern Oceans Photography Guide. I have about ten minutes more work to do on that. It will be formally announced here soon. 128 pages, 16,500 words, 175 educationally captioned images: $100. The information in this guide can make or break your trip, save your gear, and […] What’s Up? I slammed on adding photos to the Southern Ocean Photography Guide and am hoping to finish work on this new e-book today. It poured here early yesterday morning and drizzled for most of the day, but it was a lot warmer than it had been. As a result, the pool was up […] What’s Up? I added about 50 images to the Southern Ocean Photography Guide, ordered some warm clothing for my upcoming Japan trip, and answered another zillion e-mails. Swim, core exercises, ice bath, and three healthy meals made for a perfect day. Today’s blog post took nearly three hours to assemble, from soup to nuts. […] What’s Up? Most of Monday was spent putting photographs in the Southern Ocean Photography Guide. And answering a zillion e-mails as always. Though the pool has been quite chilly, I have been swimming every day. It was in the mid-thirties on Sunday evening and the pool was down to 68 degrees when I checked […] What’s Up? I was thrilled that the Denver Bronco defense consistently put Pretty Boy Tom Brady on his ass in the big playoff game yesterday; the Broncos and class-act Peyton Manning are on the way to the Super Bowl. Don’t get me wrong, I have great resect for Brady and what he and Bellicek have […] What’s Up? Scoff at Cold Thermogenesis and ice baths if you like, but the facts are that while I was in San Diego I was getting up every 45 minutes to an hour for a pit stop and sleeping–if you could even call it that–only five to six hours. Last night, after my fourth day […] What’s Up? After receiving several dire reports of “no birds at all at Bosque” from blog regular David Policansky last week, I scrapped my idea for a January 2017 Bosque IPT. Having had such a blast in San Diego and with the 2016 San Diego IPT having been such a huge success, I decided to […] B&H B&H was the primary exhibition sponsor of my solo, career retrospective 67-image exhibit. Thank them (and me, for the work I do on the blog) by clicking on the logo link above to shop. What’s Up with Used Gear Info Requests? I spent a good part of this past week catching […] What’s Up? In addition to the usual work we enjoyed a bit of a homeowner’s challenge here yesterday. Early in the morning Jim let me know that the well pump in the garage was making strange sounds. Soon thereafter we had no water so we killed the circuit breaker and called Spivey Well Drilling in […] What’s Up? Yesterday I answered more than 140 e-mails, many dealing with Used Photo Gear stuff; the Used Gear page here has really been hopping. I did, however, have time for a chilly swim–the pool was down to 71 degrees yesterday, some core exercises, and an ice bath. Your browser does not support […] |
