Day 256

More Nevada City! Montana’s Oldest School!  And a shadowy self portrait. Kids at recess.  And a half self portrait. This is a panorama from two photos.  I was using an extreme wide-angle and didn’t line things up quite right.  It turned out okay though.  I rather like it! ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 254

More Nevada City! A quilting table outside of a lived in, power and water free house.  Water comes in buckets from the well. Toots even got to carry some! A period correct firearms demonstration.  A percussion capped Springfield, I believe.  Just ignore those power lines behind the fence… Shooting the shooting! From top to bottom, […]

Day 253

More Nevada City! Main street. Looking into the Saddlery.  Lots of the buildings are open and full of period items! The Barber Shop and Saddlery.  Beyond that is a sod roof shack. Inside the Barber Shop. A detail. Shooting the Blacksmith’s. Inside.  This is a two photo panorama, with perspective correction… Some things never change. […]

Day 252

Back to Nevada City! A couple of my Milky Way photos. I think my sensor is getting old in my big camera.  There is getting to be lots of red dots that aren’t there!  At least on the long exposure in the dark photos…. ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 251

Lookin’ pretty fly for a 91 year old white guy! And I thought we got a lot of birds in our yard! ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 250

Toots made a “coup” (coo) stick. Since the traditional eagle feathers are Federally protected and banned, she used a pheasant feather and one from a seagull. I don’t know how many hundreds of these I carted home as a kid… ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 249

The Dailylife Great Gramma had a watering project. Toots likes to play in the water. A natural fit! *** Exchanging Secret Gardening Lore. Watering the leaves in the tree… The traditional rolling up of the hose! ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 248

The Dailylife Wife and Great Gramma on the back porch. The Dailylife Great Grampa.  That back porch is a nice place to sit when the skeeters aren’t out! Toots down at the fence taking photos of the two balloons. ~Curtis in /\/\ontana! {!-{>

Day 247

The Dailylife Wife and Toots, looking for important things to photograph.  This photo was actually taken with the fisheye effect on in my M2.  That is why the roof line is so distorted. Important things!  Like Toots! ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 246

We also had a couple of Osprey fly by…at a distance… * ** *** ** ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>
