Watching this magnificent owl hunting from atop a power pole I had the camera in a portrait orientation to try and catch it as it flew to the ground. Instead it flew across the road and right over my vehicle. A horizontal crop from vertical.
Thank you for being my psychotic work wife and so much more. I love you, you're the best thing that 2020 have brought me.
Happy 2021 everyone!!

John 1:1-4 KJV
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
I've never really though of Dusty as being proficient in several languages (he doesn't seem to understand the word "Come!" no matter how many times I say it). That said, I'm pretty sure this look universally means, "Throw the damn ball, stoopid hooman."
Dusty is happy to be back for another year. He loves being the center of attention.
And if I have any sort of New Year's resolution, it will be to be more active in this group and to comment more. I really dropped the ball on that last year.
I'm deducting the $20 it cost to enter the park from the overall $1,000,000 views. I think that's fair.
I wasn't totally sure what to expect since I've traditionally been a person who explores around home rather than do destination or tourist photography. It had been pleasant but windy most of the morning through New Mexico but now it was much colder (in the 40's), had higher swirling winds and a constantly dramatic sky. At one point, Scotch almost blew off a cliff. Then my camera nearly did the same.
My biggest regret was poor time management, I spent about 90 minutes covering the first 4 miles and about 30 minutes flying through the last 24 miles. I called the info line at about 4:55 when i realized i had another 15 miles to drive to make sure I wouldn't get...locked in. I may have even paid $40 for the fee. Who knows.

i Just put the two together, I like them side by side. I took two different photos few minutes from each other on the same tree.
A Nuthatch on the left and a Treecreeper on the right
edit: I said few minutes but it was less than half minute, I've checked the exif data 😄

When it gets too dark to see with the naked eye, I play with light to capture traces of a performance of dancing light and human stillness. During the few seconds while the picture is being taken, Kim looks at the stars in the silence of the night. In those moments it seems like time has slowed down.
