Sir Edmund Hillary's funeral was held on the 22nd of January 2008. He is a hero to New Zealanders because of his exception character and humanity. In the words of our Prime Minister Aunty Helen, he was a Colossus, with an inate sense or right and wrong and a great sense of service to community, here in New Zealand and beyond our shores.

Explosion was a tad larger than I thought it would be, but I still like the shot. Matawan did a great job.
Having never been to the "Wild" West Hollywood Halloween Parade before I was unsure of exactly what to expect. I knew about the outrageous Halloween Costumes, and the wild parties from the news media though. I also knew there would be lots of cross dressers.
A meetup group was supposed to meet at a nearby parking structure but it got cancelled at the last minute and naturally I chose to go it alone rather than turn back. What's that we used to say - "Though I be the Lone Survivor..." hmmm, amazing how that Creed still comes in handy 30 some years later...
Parking was challenging but I found a reasonably priced lot about a mile away and grabbed my gear and walked down to the parade route.
I staked myself out under a streetlamp in the middle of Santa Monica Blvd, and tried to get as many of the unique and good costumes as I could. One of the inside jokes is to let the newbies keep asking "What time does the parade start?" All night long. Eventually they figure it out.
These pictures were shot with a brand new Canon 7D with a ringflash. Unfortunately the ringflash blocks the focusing light from the flash unit so there were some challenges focusing in the poor light. With every breakthrough comes new obstacles. Such is life.
The Canon 7D preformed reasonably well under the circumstances. It sure as heck ain't no 1D or 5D, but it is an 18 Megapixel, APS-C 1.6x Crop sensor size, and very practical. It has a bunch of features that the 5Dii doesn't have, although the 5Dii has a much higher quality sensor, which is also slightly larger (21 Megapixel), as well as being full frame. The 7D is also noisier than the 1D or 5d at anything higher than ISO 400, but was useable under the circumstances. It also does video, but I didn't try to use it that night. I've obviously been spoiled by my 1D.
I ran out of biz cards the first hour. If your picture is in here, just use flickr mail to send me your email address, me and I'll send you the file at No Charge.
I'll be back next year - this is a fun parade.

I recently visited the Lower 9th Ward section of New Orleans. Never did I expect to witness the damage and destruction that still exists 4 and a half years after Hurricane Katrina hit. It’s really quite hard to explain the feeling when driving through this city. It’s what I would consider almost largely a modern day ghost town. With very few residents living in the homes that are actually visible and not overgrown by weeds and grass. Home after home is clearly not livable with spray painted marks on the front to let authorities know if there is anyone alive inside, if the gas is off, etc. Although the media reports rebuilding is going strong I sit here and can tell you out of the hundred of homes and empty lots I saw maybe 5 homes that were rebuilt.
See video I shot here.

In my market, the agents expect to see shots of everything, including the hall bath (our MLS allows unlimited photos). I'd been using a pretty standard setup for these shots, stuffing a flash on a stand just inside the doorframe nearest the sink, but I'd been bouncing off the wall more than the ceiling and relying mostly on the flash rather than the ambient. This time, I used the flash at its lowest power (1/16 on the Sunpak) and pointed it straight up at the ceiling. I also relied almost entirely on ambient. That really helped the shot a lot - not only did I get better light, the white balance was weighted more on the ambient and came out just fine.
Oh - if you look at the base of the toilet you'll see a flash that I'd left there from an earlier multi-flash effort that didn't work out. I'd brought two Sunpaks on stands and two SB-80s on feet upstairs; after I finished working on the bathroom I realized that I was missing one of the SBs. I was ready to move on to the next room and didn't know where it was. Thomas happened by and wanted to see my bathroom shot, and he noticed that it was a bit hot at bottom center. "Oh, THAT'S where I left that flash!"
A word of stupid advice - if you're moving on to your next room and can't account for all of your flashes, take a really close look at the last frame you shot!

At some point, i expect to lighten our household's load by selling this china. At the moment, most of the pieces are boxed up and stashed deep in a closet. I believe we have a service for sixteen. It's not our style, particularly, but i've put these pieces out to celebrate the flowers of late spring.

I expected the barns to be swarming with photographers as we were a little late getting there... but the sun was behind a bunch of big clouds and I found out later that some photographers had left because they thought the sunrise was disappointing. When the sun finally peaked over the clouds, that orangey-red cast came over the barn as I had seen in so many other photos.
This was my only day in the Grand Tetons, and we were just driving through on the way to Yellowstone, so I was very lucky that the weather cooperated so I could get these shots!
On the 11th April 2018 I visited Hythe village for the very first time. Not really knowing what to expect I found it a very beautiful village on the banks of the Southampton water. Hythe is a town near Southampton, Hampshire. It is located by the shore of Southampton Water, and has a ferry service connecting it to Southampton. Hythe has a small shopping area, a pier, and a very picturesque marina for yachts.
The name Hythe means landing place or haven. Hythe is recorded in a Parliamentary roll from 1293. The Hythe ferry to Southampton is marked on a map by Christopher Saxton of 1575, and on a map by John Harrison in 1788. Hythe was part of the parish of Fawley, although it became a separate parish in 1841. The current church, of Saint John the Baptist, was erected in 1874. It is of red brick with Bath Stone dressings. There were at one time even stocks in the village.
Thanks in part to the British Power Boat Company and it’s excellent access to the English Channel, during World War II Hythe was used as a port for the little ships of the Royal Navy as they were then known, the Motor Torpedo Boats and the RAF Air Sea Rescue Boats. In 1960, The Hovercraft Development Company and Sir Christopher Cockerell, who was the founder, moved to Hythe, he did in fact live in one of the houses near to the marina. There was also a small Royal Air Force base in Hythe known as RAF Hythe. Until its closure in September 2006 it was used by the United States Army to service and maintain watercraft.
Hythe was a village up to the 1950’s, but the expansion of Fawley Refinery, now closed, led to a demand for more houses for workers, and Hythe and Dibden Purlieu were allowed to expand into a small town. In 1983, following the growth of Hythe, the parish of Dibden was renamed to Hythe and Dibden, to reflect the importance of Hythe as a new focal point of the Parish
Hythe has a small shopping area clustered around the High Street, which includes a Waitrose Supermarket, a public library, several charity shops, and various small independent retail shops and cafes. The Hythe Pier, Railway and Ferry operates across Southampton Water to Southampton, and is the oldest working pier train in the world. Hythe's position makes it a good viewing point for watching ocean liners arriving and departing at the port of Southampton, which attracts ship spotters to the area. Hythe has a marina, at which a large number of yachts and boats are moored. Large and expensive houses are situated around the marina, overlooking the waterside. This is controlled by large lock gates at the entrance leading out to Southampton Water.
Before I rode to Inner Mongolia I expected most of the trip to lead me through monotonous flat grassland. Although there were indeed some legs like that, such as the road from Erdaoju (二道渠鄉) to Baorihaote (寶日浩特), which you can see here, the landscape was much more varied. I had forests, deserts, mountains, valleys, shrubland and more.
This is a new road, which was not shown on my map. A powerful tailwind carried me through the steppe.
Can anybody tell me how to spell Baorihaote in Mongolian? I know that the second part of the name - hào-tè (浩特) in Chinese - is "hot" in Mongolian, which means city. But what is the first part?
