One of my standard test locations for cameras and film. The best delicatessen in town is in the grocery store. They have a bakery, and cold cuts, and hot food like BBQ chicken, Baby Back Ribs, Chili Dogs, and other gut bombs. They also have pre-made salads of all sorts.
This back door shot will soon become cluttered with additional trash cans, pallets, food racks, and other debris of a busy business in a busy tourist destination.

Un miliardo di anni fa, quando seguivo le lezioni al DAMS, a Roma, la professoressa di Teoria e Tecniche del Linguaggio Cinematografico ci parlò di un film sperimentale degli anni 70, si chiamava Back & Forth. Come nel finale de La conversazione, la telecamera andava avanti e indietro all'interno della stessa stanza, se non ricordo male. Un rumore di fondo, che seguiva con un ritmo incalzante il movimento, cresceva e cresceva, e se non sbaglio il volume aumentava fino alla fine. Era ipnotico e ossessivo. Ma la cosa che ci colpì tutti fu un'altra: la docente ci raccontò che in non so quale università americana, il docente lo faceva vedere tutto, per intero. Obbligava chi non se la sentiva a uscire PRIMA dall'aula, dopodiché chiudeva gli altri dentro, a chiave, per impedire a chiunque di uscire.
Back & forth come concetto, probabilmente, è fastidioso, noioso e faticoso da seguire.
E, se a un certo punto pensi di non farcela, alzi bandiera bianca.
Ma l'obbligo di stare lì, di subire l'ipnosi come sotto tortura, di farsi trascinare dal back e dal forth una dieci cento mille volte, o ti rende più forte e consapevole... oppure ti uccide.

Endemic to Sri Lanka
After many unsuccessful attempts to see this endemic owl, finally got an action filled chance of observing it for two weekends back to back and making it more interesting and memorable this guy turned up with a few months old chick and offered a wonderful show.
Managed to observe feeding and hunting styles throughout the entire observing period and with the immature behavior of the juvenile it was easy to spot them despite their shady habitat.
Probably due to the fact of feeding for the juvenile they were very active in the day light just like other day time birds

Deep in the Tugela Gorge in South Africa, we got a good view back up to the second highest waterfall in the world, which we had hiked to the top of two-days prior.
The best way to get a sense of the scale of the world is to travel by foot. When in the Drakensberg Mountains we hiked along the Tugela river that orginates in the mountains you see in the background of this photo, tumbles over the cliff edge as Tugela Falls and then heads to the sea in Tugela Gorge where I am standing. Following the path of the river this way provided a strong sense of the scale of the landscape both in terms of the size of the river and in the surrounding climate and plant life.
When so many aspects of modern life serve to make our planet seem smaller and smaller, taking time out to travel long distances by foot and rough it out a bit makes it clear that there actually is a lot to experience, enjoy and protect on our planet.

... and photography!
Sorry I've been MIA for the last couple of weeks. I've been lacking inspiration for a while and the gloomy winter weather doesn't help. Torrential rain for weeks and relatively warm temperatures mean that, unlike most of the rest of the Northern Hemisphere, we don't even have any snow for some creative shots! And boy do we need some with those Winter Olympics starting here in just three weeks!!!
A car accident last week kept me busy with insurance paperwork, calls to the body shop, and visits to the doctor and chiropractor for whiplash suffered by myself and my three boys! Luckily we're all doing fine now.
Oh, and I had my first real photo shoot at the weekend for a local Day Spa needing shots to update and improve their website :-))
Anyway, thanks to those who sent emails and messages - I appreciate your concern. I'm back sparodically and will catch up with your streams in the coming days.
Holy cow! I'm like a boy. I love it. Though, the back was really not supposed to be all short, just the bottom half. Another argument in favor of DIY haircuts.
A vertorama of the inner part of Morro Bay from Los Osos. I was using a Sony NEX 5n in jpg mode with auto ISO so there was a different ISO on the upper and lower half of the photo. Still learning the camera and the settings are a little more challenging to adjust on the fly compared to my Nikon. I could have used the auto pano mode set to vertical but didn't on this shot. Blending the leaves was also a little time consuming but I'm still satisfied with the overall result.

I built this house in 1977 and we lived here for 26 years. One time our neighbor was burning a brush pile and the wind came up, with in minutes we had 20 foot flames roaring across the wetlands just in front of the house.
My weekly walk behind my house and I took these two shots while walking the path. I am not expecting anymore shots as the color should be gone by the time I get out again.
