This past weekend the girls took center stage as they competed in the Surfer Girl Pro annual competition at Oceanside. Perfect waves and weather for the event.
Established in 2007 as a showcase for women in action sports, the Super Girl Pro Series is the only large-scale all-women’s action sports, esports and lifestyle series in the world. Developed as a celebration of female strength and empowerment, the platform has grown into a series of five incredible festivals centered around providing social, athletic, cultural, educational, business, and entertainment opportunities for young women in areas where they are traditionally underrepresented.

It was hard to find something to scale her against, but this was a very large -- and fortunately friendly and curious -- female who came up to our jeep to check us out as we explored the northern Mara's Olare-Motorogi Conservancy. I'd say she was a body length away. To get her all in, I had to resort to the iPhone at its widest angle. My bad back kept me from leaning out the window as far as I'd have liked to get the low angle she deserved, but under the harsh midday light I still had a wonderful opportunity to capture the texture of the dried and cracked mud that covered her. (We were near the Talek River, where she'd likely got her skin-protective coating.) Black-and-white was the only way to go because the iPhone image was hard to color-balance into something remotely real. ©2025 John M. Hudson | jmhudson1.com
Every lens has its potential and its limitations. This is particularly true for the Samyang telephoto (mirror) lens with a range that is on my Fuji X-Pro1 the equivalent of 450 mm. Like every very long lens, this one does compress the perspective and shows quite nicely that my village, Markyate, is situated in a valley and is surrounded by hills. This is the region of the Chilterns, a limestone plateau into which rivers have cut their beds. The village lies along the bed of the River Ver and we are looking from one side of the valley to the other. The problem with this lens is that when set to infinity, its resolution power is weak (as you can see). And that is why I prefer to use this lens for "close-ups", anything away by two to twenty meters. And for that purpose the lens is just fine.
"Moose Tracks" is an ice cream flavor. Elephant tracks are evidence of elephants. Here, elephant tracks traverse dry Lake Amboseli in the eponymously named Kenyan national park, with the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro some 30 miles away in Tanzania. ©2025 John M. Hudson | jmhudson1.com

Aujourd'hui, la moisson bat son plein à Rivas. Vue du ciel, les lignes du champ et la poussière laissée par la moissonneuse offrent un spectacle simple mais toujours impressionnant.
