Day 128

Sunday, May 5, 2013

I just finished a Rocky Mountain School of Photography Weekend session here in Great Falls.  It is a sampling of some of the courses they offer, and a lot of fun.  They offer a critique of a photo of your’s at the end.  My photo got a an “OOOOoooo” from the crowd, but then showed […]

I had lunch with Dailylife Daughter #1 and ‘Stache (2 weeks old!) today.  The Dailylife Wife was sleeping off a bit of surgery (she’s fine!) so I slipped out for a bit.  On The Border is always good. “Man, you wouldn’t believe the morning I had…” (All photos by iPad Mini) “First there was YYyaaWW…” […]

Day 123

Wednesday, April 24, 2013

I had to run up to Havre this morning to interview someone, and just past Big Sandy I found the Big New Sante Fe Railroad (Warren Buffet’s model railroad!) was still storing the intermodal shipping container cars.  We have had miles and miles of them around here since the economy had the downturn.  There were […]

Day 122

Tuesday, April 23, 2013

The 22nd of April was suppose to be one of the good nights to view the Lyriads Meteor Shower, which comes around every year at this time.  Unfortunately this year it coincides with an almost full Moon, which screws up the viewing until after the Moon sets at 4:30am.  That is pretty much too early […]

A Common Goldeneye and his Mrs. (1/3000s f/8.0 ISO500 400mm Canon 7D) Here is a bit of a mystery.  It looks like an American Widgeon, but the color of the stripe by the eye is wrong. (1/1000s f/8.0 ISO500 400mm 7D) My book shows it should be green. (1/1500s f/8.0 ISO500 400mm 7D) Maybe this is […]
