I started out with film photography many years ago. But, in spite of seeing so many awesome film images here on Flickr, I love the versatility of digital. I also love collecting old cameras.

Dad or the Alpha male (right) and Son from last spring. The family group usually consists of a breeding pair - Alpha male & female, and non breeding offspring from previous seasons. The male offspring can stay with the family group for 1 or 2 years.
I captured this on the Cumberland River. The Father & Son were fishing on a small dry patch in the middle of the river. As I was shooting I noticed the water was rising, I shouted to them and they barley had enough time to cross before the island was gone.
Thanks for stopping by
Fathers carve the path with steady hand,
Guiding family through life's shifting sand.
With love and strength, they light the way,
Building bonds that never fray.

serves everyone
all the time.
A great soul
never dies.
It brings us together
again and again.”

Another beautiful view just outside the park. This image is a tribute to my wonderful father who passed away at the age of 92 in 2009.
In the afternoon after visiting Zion National Park, I took a Zion Outback Safaris trip outside the park. The 3-hour “Mesa Vista” Safari followed North Creek toward the Kolob Terrace, then explored Smith Mesa. Smith Mesa was 'open range'. The area provided spectacular panoramas which stretched from West Temple to the Kolob Fingers at the northern end of the park.
Happy Father's Day. My dad's wedding ring and stationery--probably 80 years old from the USS Texas, which he served on. In the background is a pin from TWA, where he worked and also a pocket watch of my father-in-laws. Both have passed, both remembered this week.

At day I ran past this tree within the Dutch heather season (soon coming up again) with my good friend and running mate and made a plan to return in the evening.
Although light pollution is material at this location, I think it turned out really well. Especially as he brought his son and kind of demonstrates how he guides his kid in life.
Many thanks for your comments, I'm curious what your thoughts are.
The £4,675 'Father Willis' organ above the choir screen in Lincoln Cathedral, England, was originally dedicated on St Hugh's Day, 17 November 1898, before a congregation of 4700 people. It was to be the first British cathedral organ to be blown by electricity, but at the time of its inauguration, Lincoln's power station had not yet entered service, so it was pumped manually by soldiers of the Lincolnshire Regiment.
No changes were made to the organ until 1960, when Harrison and Harrison carried out a complete rebuild at a cost of £14,000. Six new registers were added, but the Willis pipework was left unaltered. The action and blowing equipment were renewed, and a new console provided. A further restoration was undertaken by the same firm in 1998, and the organ was rededicated on 20 November, just over a century after it was first played in public.
The superbly carved limestone choir screen, shown bottom right, dates from 1330. It is a marvellous example of Decorated Gothic architecture with crocketed pinnacles and arches with tiny carved animal heads. On the pillars are small carvings of saints. The Puritans knocked the heads off the statues but they were recarved by the Victorians who added bishops' heads. The walls of the screen are covered with carvings of leaves and flowers. Traces of red and blue medieval paint can still be seen on them. In the centre of the screen is a wrought iron metal gate which is used by the choir before a service.
Above the organ, you can see directly up the inside the central tower, which appears as the dark diamond shape just above left of centre in the image. Although the building of the cathedral started in 1072, the current central tower dates from the 13th century following the collapse of the original tower in 1237. Between 1307 and 1311 the central tower was raised to its present height of 271 feet (83 m). At this time, a tall lead-encased wooden spire topped the tower but this was blown down in a storm in 1548. With its spire, the tower reputedly reached a height of 525 feet (160 m) which would have made it the world's tallest structure at the time, surpassing the Great Pyramid of Giza, which had held the record for almost 4,000 years.
