Arch Rock
Arch rock on the north end of Mackinac Island with, thanks to whatever influences in the lake, a nice variety of colors. Picture taken with Canon 60D, EF-S 18-135mm lens @ 18mm, 1/30 sec shutter, f/11, ISO 100
Squawk Squawk
We were attached by seagulls while on Mackinac Island. I’m pretty sure we were not feeding them, but we may have had food out. I’m not sure how I concocted the camera settings used. I’m guessing they were from taking pictures of something else the night before and I just… Continue reading
Glass Flowers
Also from Artprize 2013. From giant metal dragons to reasonably large glass flowers. This was one of a series of four or five glass flower sculptures. Picture taken with Canon 60D, EF-S 17-85mm lens @ 17mm, 1/40 sec shutter, f/4.5, ISO 100
Dragon Thing
From Artprize 2013. This was by no means the most impressive metal sculpture (it was part sculpture, part playground and part pyro-pandering) but I guess dumping large amounts of propane into the air and igniting it is worth something. After all, I did take a picture. I took a video… Continue reading
Polar Bear
For a few years, we thought that the polar bear exhibit was just a mean joke because there was not and, as far as we could tell, had never been a polar bear in the habitat. Then one showed up, and she looks sad (at least in this picture). Apparently… Continue reading
Amur (Siberian) Tiger
OK – Thanksgiving and the shopping holiday are over, back to normal. Here’s one of the zoo’s amur tigers, which apparently used to be called Siberian tigers but the name was changed to better reflect their natural range. Picture taken with Canon 60D, EF 70-300mm lens @ 235mm, f/5.6, 1/80… Continue reading
Slumpy the Camel
I’ve apparently spent a lot of time wandering around zoos, and the Lincoln Park Zoo in particular. So, this picture is the start of the series “Lincoln Park Zoo Animals” (I felt very creative in coming up with that title). Independent of various thoughts on animals in captivity, I like… Continue reading
Blue Angels
Ending the airshow pictures as any proper airshow ends – with a shot of the Blue Angels. Good timing, but I must have been tracking #3 just a bit because the tail of #6 is slightly blurry. Picture taken with Canon 60D, EF 70-300mm lens @ 300mm, 1/3200 sec, f/8.0,… Continue reading
Blue Angels Fat Albert
Gizmodo – Blue Angels Fat Albert Apparently I queued up a few more airshow pictures. I suspect I’ve posted a picture of this guy before, but this is Fat Albert – the Blue Angels transport C-130 Hercules. When I was a kid I saw a demo of the plane taking… Continue reading
