What wasn't good: Our daughter woke me up way too early this morning.
What was good: Because of that, I was able to catch this moment of early morning sunshine.
Sunset Road (169/365)
I should have gotten lower; it would have made for a better shot. The pavement was so bloody hot, I didn’t want to lie down on it.
Hope it was a good day, thanks for stopping by.

What A Cute Couple (168/365)
My morning bird shots will be coming to a close for the Summer. It’s bloody hot in the mornings now, and I’m not happy about it. One of life’s true little pleasures for me is sitting outside in the morning watching the birds with my coffee and camera.
This nice couple gave ...

Flight (167/365)
Back home and rested. I sat outside this morning with coffee, camera, and my new book. I’ll have a write-up about this amazing book in my June The Good Stuff. Bottom line: I think every outdoor photographer should have this book. It’s the best photography book I’ve found in a really long time. I’m highlighting and making margin notes like crazy.
I was working on bird shots between cups of coffee, and grabbed a fun shot with the Nikon as this guy came overhead.

Look Up (165/365)
Last overnight in CUN, thank goodness. It’s so hot and humid here; I just can’t do it. I’m done until next winter.
A couple of decent shots and a number of unpublishable ones today. Some shots you think will be good just don’t turn out.
Nice weather, full airplanes, and on time, no drama, and no mechanical issues—all make for a good day.

Nice day at work. Good weather and easy flying. Overnighting in SJC, and it’s crazy busy here. I guess there is a World Cup game(s) going on right now.
Hope everyone had a good day.

I’m into the power lines this week…
Back to work tomorrow. Back to iPhone shots.

Peace (162/365)
Short drive tonight on some errands, and when I drove past this, I knew I had to capture it. I turned around, parked, and hiked to a good spot to take in this peaceful scene. A good reason to always have your camera with you.

Lines of Power (161/365)
Out for another sunset tonight — I could get into this habit. The oranges and blues have been beautiful. I did a quick 4x6 test print of this shot on Ilford Gold Fibre Rag, and it looks really good.
I finally shot a roll of Ilford HP5+ through the Rolleiflex tonight. I loaded a roll of Kodak Portra 400 for tomorrow. We shall see…
Hopefully, a worthy Rollei frame or two to share in Stray Pixels in the coming weeks.
