The southernmost point in the continental USA. Posted because it’s just a kind of cool thing to have seen once upon a time, not for it’s photographic qualities. Picture taken with Olympus C-2040z, lens @ 21mm (140mm equiv), f/2.6, 1/320 sec, ISO 100
You can blame Michael for making me think of the Key West folder and the recent bout of dumb sculpture pictures. Here’s another which I don’t have a better name for than generic Key West art – looks like a painted metal snake plant to me. Picture taken with Olympus… Continue reading
Another from the Key West sculpture garden – taken years before Artprize made big, coarse, welded metal structures cool. Of course, it was also taken with the state of the art Olympus C-2040z making use of both of its megapixels to record Mr. T-Rex in such fine detail. Picture taken… Continue reading
From Key West, one of the paid beaches, I think, a nice cicada sculpture. This one was in the sculpture park very near the T-rex from a previous, very old, post. Picture taken with Olympus C-2040z, lens @ 7.3mm (40mm equiv), f/4.5, 1/800 sec, ISO 100
I was looking for a good past shot from Labor Day weekend – specifically hoping to find one of when we paddled under the Mackinac Bridge during the annual bridge walk. But, I had no good pictures from those events – at least not taken from the water. So, instead,… Continue reading
A mallard that was found on MSU’s campus near the Red Cedar wave. I was actually hanging around taking pictures of some friends kayaking on the wave but got distracted by the wildlife. Picture taken with Canon 350D, EF 70-300mm lens @ 300mm, f/6.3, 1/320 sec shutter, ISO 800
There’s nothing particularly notable about this building and courtyard in Japan and I’m not even sure what the building is. I still find it kind of picturesque, probably just because of how clean everything in Japan is kept. I think I stayed at the hotel from where this was taken two… Continue reading
Another from a few years back… I mentioned early on that I had lots of airshow pictures. This one is of the Blue Angels from the Cherry Festival Airshow in 2009. The Blue Angels were typically an every other year occurrence there, sometimes substituted by the Airforce Picture taken with… Continue reading
As Michigan gets hit with a week of warm (and humid) weather again, I’ll help prepare those of you who ski for the upcoming season! My folder label has this called Vail, but I’m pretty sure we didn’t actually make it to Vail and that this is Breckenridge. Or rather,… Continue reading
Just a duck, nothing special. She (guess) was chilling in the pond just outside the Lincoln Park Zoo. I thought it made for a good picture. I took a few more, but on the shutter speed was roughly halved and they were mostly blurry. Too bad, because the second shot was framed slightly… Continue reading
