It's just becoming spring here. Snow still on the ground and the lakes still frozen enough for ice fishing, but the days are getting warmer and the ground is beginning to thaw.
The building on the left is St. Stephe’s Anglican Church. The light still has a tinge of the rich yellow winter afternoon light often has, but only a tinge. This would have been a lot better later in the day (or maybe not: a front moved in and we lost the sun just as the light was getting good).
This panorama is made from 75 hand-held bracketed images, shot with my Tamron lens set to 50mm. I took two rows of pictures with the camera turned sideways (to portrait orientation); base shutter speed was 1/200, the aperture was f/11, and (unfortunately) the white balance was automatic because I keep forgetting to set it to manual! After importing into Aperture I exported the images as 16-bit TIFFs, used Hugin to stitch them and enfuse to to the tone mapping, cropped and compressed with Photoshop, and finally imported this image into Aperture for storage and retouching.
Lots of retouching, unfortunately. My sensor is dusty and I forgot to clone out the dust with lift-and-stamp before exporting the base images.
The final picture is 17055 x 6152 pixels, and clocks in at 142 MB!

we went adventuring through the mysterious fields near this water plant thing yesterday. ah, what a great day. :D

I spent most of the night awake tending to the smoker so when about 5 am rolled around the sky started to light up. I figured I might as well stay up a little longer to catch the sunrise over the freshly baled hay.
Much appreciate all the activity on my last two photos and apologise for not flickring quite as frequently as usual...
Have been very busy launching a digital imprint, ACHUKAbooks, and didn't reckon on publishing being quite such an _emotional_ enterprise...
Perhaps it's because The Field is our first and presently our only 'baby', that I'm spending these early days so assiduously looking out for it, checking for reviews and responses...
Charlie got a splinter in one of his pads so we had to stop while I removed it. He was very cooperative which sure helps the process

... of a rich harvest. Rains and even the floods in the MIghty Brahmaputra help in regenrating these fields. The colours are outrageously attractive at some lucky times.
First time lugging the f/2.8 lenses on vacation, and what a difference...the 80-200 AF-D was a dream to use, and also serves to work off some of the feasting that was served during the conference in Cape Town. The D7000 is also a major step up from the D80. Colors are so rich and full of contrast straight out of camera. Taken at the Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden in Cape Town. It's one of the nicest botanical garden that I've been to.
Sat so obediently for me because he knew I wanted a Field Sparrow picture. Thank you, sweet little one.

ATS Hangar 3 at Paine Field July 23, 2011. ANA 787 line 8 was in Bay 4 for a long time but it's gone today.
Several months ago, KCRW's Good Food did a segment on absinthe which made me start thinking about a spring garden party to sample it. She mentioned a particular brand, which I scrawled in a Grass Stain Green Field Notes Book, and today it paid off. Browsing the miniatures at the liquor store for treasures to sample, I immediately recognized this bottle as the brand I'd noted.
