Empty (86/365)
Empty, seems to be the theme the past few days. A nice walk around SLC this afternoon, after a long day at work. Tired, and a little emtpy.

I might be over the hump and on a healing trend. Body temp peaked 2.5 degrees above normal two nights ago and was just up 0.5 degrees last night. Feel slightly better with less coughing. Sheesh, I’m ready to move on from this thing. Another short walk today, not much energy. Pictures took a back seat today.
This dog, 🧡 I love how she folds her paws together.
Shadows (79/365)
Another day of being down and out. Very short walk today just to get some steps in. Daisy got a 7 mile walk in earlier this morning with the OH. This was just a short one to keep me company.
Wild Blue Yonder (78/365)
Another day of being totally out of commission. I haven’t had a cold/flu this bad in a long time. Very short walk today, captured a plane flying through the open blue sky. Energy-wise, that’s all I got!
Hope it’s a safe, beautiful day. Make someone smile today. ☺️
Oh, and d...
Decisions (77/365)
Quiet day on the photography front. Home, sick as a dog with a bad chest cold. I went out for a short walk, but the coughing soon forced me back home. I can’t complain, this past year I’ve beaten back almost every cold/flu. This one got me good.
It was this picture or one of a tissue box. 😊 Stay safe, everyone.
Flight (76/365)
Tried pushing the iPhone (and my skills) to the limit on this one.
Birds in flight are tough enough, but with an iPhone, you’re mostly just hoping for the best. I fired off a lot of frames in RAW, knowing the sensor would meter for the bright sky and leave the bird in shadow. Shooting RAW at least gives you a chance to recover shadows and highlights.
Zooming in tight was basically impossible, so I shot wide and planned to crop later. This isn’t a bad result, all things considered. It’s heavily cropped, and I used maximum shadow recovery to pull out detail in the pelican, which gives it a slightly “crispy” look—pretty much the classic sign of heavy shadow recovery.
Still, for a bird‑in‑flight shot on an iPhone, I’m pleasantly surprised.
Big Ass Wires (75/365)
Architecture (74/365)
This church/school has shown up before, but I can’t resist its lines and how it looks in flat black-and-white. It ended up being the only photo I took today, grabbed during a 4-mile walk with the dogs. Trying to shoot while juggling two dogs is just about impossible—especially with my two unruly ones. The rest of the day has been all office work and no shooting, sadly.

Wrapped by the Sun (72/365)
Long damn day. Long three-day trip. I’m tired. Exhausted. Ready to be home.

Widow Jane (68/365)
Recently received a new lightbox and wanted to take some test photos. I used my iPhone and struggled to keep the neck and cap, along with the label, in focus. Did not get the results I wanted, but the experimentation will continue!

Abstract Kind of Day (63/365)
Tough day on the photo front, really busy at work, and not much time to shoot. Had to get creative and go for some abstract shots.

Minimalism (62/365)
Blues (61/365)
After the hot, dusty hike yesterday, the gym pool was the way to go today.
Walking The Red Line (60/365)
Friends don’t let friends shoot in the harsh noon sun. Lots of pictures today and nothing really to work with. Hard to recover overblown highlights and true colors. That harsh, high-in-the-sky sun just washes everything out. Yet, we try! When that’s what you got, you use it to the best of your ability.
Nice hike in the red dirt.

A New Project Begins (59/365)
A Zenza Bronica Zenzanon MC 75mm f/2.8 Lens in mint condition arrived from Japan. The first piece in a new project begins.
Sub-Surface (58/365)
Not super happy with this shot. The concept in my head was much better than the picture I got. I took about 12 shots trying to get the right angle and exposure.
I needed my main camera to shoot two exposures, one for above ground and one for below, and combine them. As you can see, the upper portion is over-exposed. There are limits with an iPhone and walking a dog!
Hope it’s a great day!
Go take some pictures!!
