Stuff I am driving up to Charleston, SC early on Saturday morning to do some photography with Denise Ippolito who is doing additional scouting in the area for future workshops. This blog post, the 128th in a row took about 2 hours to prepare. It was published automatically at 5:00am on Saturday morning. Enjoy […] Stuff With the shoulder healing there will be no swimming for a while but I did enjoy my ice bath. Yesterday I got five optimized hi-res files on the way to the folks at The Nat, the San Diego Natural History Museum to be used for advanced publicity for my solo exhibit. It will feature […] Stuff The alarm was set for 3:00am yesterday but I woke at 2:25 and started getting things together for our Fort DeSoto/Dr. Rucker outing.

There was not much going on at my favorite morning spot but […] Stuff I sent more than a hundred e-mails in a 24 hour period from Monday into Tuesday. Par for the course. I had a nice swim and enjoyed my ice bath. I had a phone conference with the folks at The Nat, the San Diego Natural History Museum. It is looking very much as if […] Stuff I spent much of Monday answering e-mails and planning the January 2016 San Diego IPT (dates TBA soon). I enjoyed a nice 60-lengths of the pool swim and an ice bath. I watched Rickie Fowler’s incredible 8 under par on the last ten holes playoff victory at the Player’s Championship and the NY Rangers […] Stuff I spent most of Sunday getting the images and captions for my San Diego article to Helen Longest Saccone at Nature Photographer Magazine after my Friday efforts failed: Apple Mail downsized the photo attachments 🙁 This blog post, the 123rd in a row, took about 2 1/2 hours to prepare. It was published […] Happy Mother’s Day Be sure to wish all the mom’s in your life a wonderful day today, especially the one who brought you into the world (if you are lucky enough to have her around).

While we concentrated on finding backlit and shaded subjects the vast majority of the 30 or so photographers were working 90 degrees to the bright sun…. Not good. The sun was somewhat […] Stuff The second full day of the current IPT was a great one. The clouds and heavy overcast allowed us to photograph until 11:30am. everyone loved the lunch at my favorite local eatery, Gypsy Cab Company. Our afternoon session began with full sun but almost as soon as we arrived the cloud cover did the […] Stuff We enjoyed a cloudy, drizzly morning on the first full day of the current IPT. With occasional deluges. All in all it was a great but wet morning and I got to use my flash quite a bit. Flash images and stories coming soon. This blog post, the 118th in a row, took […] Stuff Monday was packing and travel day. I left before lunch and made it to the motel in St. Augustine just after 3pm. The 4 hour drive went by very quickly. I met my small group for a brief orientation and then headed to the Alligator Farm where conditions are looking quite excellent. This […] Stuff Sunday was a triple-header day: swim, core exercises, and ice bath. And both a morning and afternoon sunset session. With some great results. Got some stuff done on the San Diego article for Nature Photographer Magazine. Ate well and took a nice nap. All in all a perfect day. This blog post, the […] Stuff Saturday was yet another typically busy day of work doing what I love. I had a great swim, my longest in some time, and enjoyed a 58 degree ice bath. Again I watched lots the NHL and NBA playoff games. The Rangers evened their series with the Capitols despite one of the sickest goals […] Stuff Friday was another typically busy day of work doing what I love.

I was beat. The DeSoto IPT group was great and and so were the birds. As fate would have it, it is supposed to […] Stuff We enjoyed a lousy morning of bird photography as a west/southwest at 25+ mph sandblasted our eyes and had all the birds facing away from us and the light. Our sunny/hazy afternoon turned into a cloudy early evening; we enjoyed a great session with lots of bathing godwits, three totally tame spoonbills, and lots […] |
