When I go driving around in Seattle, this is how I do it. I drive here and there, getting lost and getting found, and thus getting to know my new city without being told by a robot what to do.
This male Cape May Warbler is a long way from its wintering grounds in the Caribbean. A mega rarity, first sighting of this species in this part of British Columbia.
Abbotsford, B.C.
After a little incident the the other week when he decided to snap the long line and end up in the middle of nowhere on a snowy hillside wrapped round a tree and spending a rather cold night alone (not that he was bothered in the least it seemed) I've invested in one of these little gadgets. .. all I can say is wow! (pitpat) I suppose it also means my other half can always see where I am ... and be impressed with my fortitude when she sees me zooming up and down the hills!! :)

A gem I found on a Bladen County backroad two weekends ago. And actually, I would have never found this if the road my GPS was telling me to take hadn't been washed away during Hurricane Matthew -- I saw a road closed ahead sign, took a right, and found this.

I was originally enrolled into the GETTY IMAGES collection as a contributor on April 9th 2012, and when links with FLICKR were terminated in March 2014, I was retained and fortunate enough to be signed up via a second contract, both of which have proved to be successful with sales of my photographs all over the world now handled exclusively by them.
On November 12th 2015 GETTY IMAGES unveiled plans for a new stills upload platform called ESP (Enterprise Submission Platform), to replace the existing 'Moment portal', and on November 13th I was invited to Beta test the new system prior to it being officially rolled out in December. ESP went live on Tuesday December 15th 2015 and has smoothed out the upload process considerably.
These days I take a far more leisurely approach to my photographic exploits, and having moved from professional Nikon equipment to consumer bodies and lenses, I travel light less constraints and more emphasis on the pure capture of the beauty that I see, more akin to my original persuits and goals some five decades previously when starting out. I would like to say a huge and heartfelt 'THANK YOU' to GETTY IMAGES, and the 22.893+ Million visitors to my FLICKR site.

**** This frame was chosen on August 7th 2018 to appear on FLICKR EXPLORE (Highest Ranking: #80. This is my 103rd photograph to be selected, which for me is both amazing and exciting, as I never view my images as worthy compared to some of the awesome photography out there. EXPLORE is Flickr's way of showcasing the most interesting photos within a given point in time -- usually over a 24 hour period.
Flickr receives about 6,000 uploads every minute -- That's about 8.6 million photos a day! From this huge group of images, the Flickr Interestingness algorithm chooses only 500 images to showcase for each 24-hour period. That's only one image in every 17,000!..... so I am really thrilled to have a frame picked and most grateful to every one of the 17.950 Million people who have visited, favourite and commented on this and all of my other photographs here on my FLICKR site. *****

'The beast from the East', a Siberian cold front and weather phenomenon, has swept across the United Kingdom duringh the past few days, and last night was Kent's turn to brace herself for the deluge of snow.

We arrived in Tahoe early in the afternoon, did the whirlwind tour of Tahoe. What a pretty day, sunny, warm and party cloudy. Our first goal was to scout out the location of known photo ops, but also to find some new ones. We found several areas that we are going to go back to when the weather is better. A few parts in the back country, which I am really happy about. Since I have been trying to get Jim to go on a back packing trip for years.
Our scouting led us into Nevada to look for the elusive bonsai rock. Luckily, I had a GPS with the coordinates. So I set the GPS to navigate, so we would know how close we were to the parking/trailhead as we drove south. I looked over the edge of the cliff and could see bonsai, but the GPS still said 4.2 miles, then after another minute of driving the GPS beeped to illustrate that we were there. Oh well, just goes to show that technology still has a way to go.
We took the long straight down, boulder hoping route to bonsai. With camera gear, wading boots and extra warm clothes in tow... it was a bit of a journey. Luckily, we spent a few hours there, so the trip was worth it.
I posting an image from twilight, since Jim's sunset can not be beat.

CSXT GP40-2 #6059 & GP38-2 #2742 idle in the wee hours of the morning after a run to Gettysburg and back to service customers along the way. January 28, 2025. Ilford HP5+, Nikon FM2N.
The journey is as important as the destinations. Road-side Randomness in CA, AZ, NM, TX, UT, and NV on my Epic Winter Break Road Trip.
Unfortunately, my GPS had been switched off and I didn't realize it, so I have little idea where most of these were actually taken.
I believe this would be around Marble Canyon on 89A in northern Arizona.
Birds are moving, never know what can show up, this mourning saw the Eagle hit the water ...no shot .... then land in a nearby tree. After the shot I noticed the bands on his legs and then saw the transmitter on his back...crazy..
I have the band number and sent photos to NYSDEC hopefully get some info, would be nice to know !
