What’s Up?
Bald Eagle photography at Kachemak Bay has continued to be phenomenal. On Thursday afternoon we took the boat to a seldom-visited bay and with a brisk southwest wind we found a relatively sheltered spot; it was an absolute slaughter as we had birds diving right at the boat and banking in front of […]

Me early, as usual — still on eastern time 🙂
Photography in Homer has continued to be astounding and the first IPT is going great guns. Multiple IPT vet Donna is thrilled that she made the last-second decision to join the first IPT and made a slew of contest-winning images on DAYS […]
What’s Up?
Homer has been beyond amazing. Coming earlier than usual the weather has been wild, the eagles have been ravenous, and the photography has been insanely outstanding — far beyond what anyone could have dreamed of. My recovered SONY gear has stood up quite well. On Friday and Saturday, both the 7r iv and […]
What’s Up?
As you can see immediately below, the weather in Homer, AK has been wild, but the photography has been beyond amazing. On Friday, with my SONY gear still in limbo, Clemens kindly loaned me his Canon 300mm f/2.8L IS lens and an EOS-1D X Mark II. I did not forget how to use […]
This Got My Attention!
It may have been that I had forgotten that you were forced to check your photo rollers or large backpacks on the planes for the short flight to Homer. Or it is possible that either they used to allow regulation roll-aboards like my large and sturdy ThinkTank Airport SecurityTM V2.0, or […]

Jim and I had a great dinner at the Longhorn Steakhouse near the airport on Wednesday even. I loved my ribeye with crusted parmesan and the creamed spinach.
I was asleep by 8pm and woke at 4am, 30 minutes before the alarm was gonna go off. As I was not comfortable waiting […]
What’s Up?
I am packing like a fiend today, WED 19 FEB 2020. Jim will be taking me to an Orlando Airport motel late this afternoon. I fly to Homer on Delta via Seattle and Anchorage. It is a little bit of a challenge to make Homer by plane in a single day but if […]

What’s Up?
As planned, I tried for pre-dawn blurs on Saturday at Circle Bar B preserve and had lots of good chances. A GBH flew right up to me and posed for about ten minutes on the dark, cloudy, morning. Then I headed to Lakeland for the white pelicans and did just fine keeping 39 […]
What’s Up?
I photographed for a while at Lakeland on Thursday morning on the way home from DeSoto/Gulfport. And did well. Each day I fall more in love with my SONY gear. I forgot to mention a recent first: on Wednesday morning during the 1 1/2 days I spent with multiple IP veteran Larry Master […]
What’s Up?
Me, early. As good as Fort DeSoto was on Wednesday, I am heading to do the American White Pelicans in Lakeland. I will be on the road from Gulfport before 5:30am.

Larry Master and I had a great afternoon at DeSoto. And best of all, Larry learned a ton about his SONY a9 ii. We have a full day together, today, WED 9 FEB 2020.
This Just In!
Larry and I had a killer Wednesday morning at DeSoto. We started with several species […]
What’s Up?
I am headed over to St Pete later this morning to meet up with multiple IPT veteran Larry Master at Fort DeSoto this afternoon for 1 1/2 days of pretty much private SONY In-the-Field Instruction. I will do my swim at 8:30am today and then have the bloodwork for my next check-up done […]
What’s Up?
I’ve been swimming my 50 lengths (88 to the mile) afternoon with the pool right at 76 degrees. And I have been poking around the lakefront with my photo gear most mornings and afternoons. On Sunday I had the pleasure of meeting John and Tricia LeClair at Gatorland. See more on that below. […]
What’s Up?
I was glad to learn on Friday afternoon that the second Homer Bald Eagle IPT is now sold out. There are two slots open on the first IPT. If you are at all interested in making this IPT please get in touch asap via e-mail or by cell phone: 863-221-2372; you might be […]
What’s Up?
I have been doing my morning walk with my SONY 200-600 with the a9 ii in all conditions. On clousy days, I try for blurs. Whatever the weather, I strive to learn more about exposure and the various AF modes. Most days produce a very few keepers at most, but I am always […]

What’s Up?
By the time the game began, I realized that I wanted the Chiefs to win. With just over 7 minutes left in the game Kansas City’s chance of winning was 4%. I had just about given up hope when the Mahomes’ magic began. The final score of Chiefs: 31, 49ers: 20 did not […]
What’s Up?
Well, today is Super Bowl Day. As two of my three favorite teams this year (San Fran, the Chiefs, and the Saints — and not including the hapless Giants) are in the game, I am not sure who to root for. I am hoping for an exciting, high scoring game that goes down […]
