I had fun with this one. Found some good natural light, did my patented spin and click, and just let what happened happen. Had too many favorites to pick just 1. ;)

Practicing night shots without a tripod. Resting the camera on a dock post and holding the strap for dear life. Self timer used, ISO at 400 seemed to take the picture faster rather than have it in scene mode and let it do it's thing automatically.

I sit next to her and listen to her practice. Next time I must remember to tell her that it is one of my favorite things to do. She is typical of a girl her age, reluctant to get practicing, but once she does, she enjoys it. I can see that it is an outlet for her. It touches a part of her that makes her carefree and happy. It touches the same part of me to sit and listen. We are made to make music.

Taken from Twin Peaks in San Francisco this evening. I took this shot after I had packed up my 4x5 film camera... It was the very first time I shot with my Shen Hao TZ45-IIB! I shot two plates, but I get the feeling that I screwed up on something... I'm not entirely clear how the Bulb setting on the shutter works on my lens, a Fujinon W 210mm lens. I think I'm gonna need more practice with the 4x5 before I head out next time. There are so many steps in my mental checklist that it's easy to miss something. However, it was way cool looking through the ground glass with a magnifying loupe... I just hope that amazing detail makes it onto the film! (With how busy I am, it might be a few months before I get this film developed!)
Taken last week over in Peoria. There are four of these guys and gals running around. This was taken in the late afternoon on a sunny day, but there was some decent shade in the tiger area.

LANDOVER, Md. -- Jay Gruden's Washington Redskins have not won two games in a row all season. They followed a 33-point victory with a 28-point loss. They are 5-1 at home, 0-5 on the road. They tend to have a hard time running the ball -- and stopping the run.
And yet, for all of their deficiencies and inconsistency, the Redskins are right there at the top of the NFC East.
Kirk Cousins connected with DeSean Jackson for a 63-yard touchdown pass and scored on a fourth-down quarterback sneak, Washington intercepted Eli Manning three times, and the Redskins withstood the latest miraculous catch by Odell Beckham Jr. to hold on and beat the New York Giants 20-14 Sunday, pulling into a tie for first place.
Eli's interceptions dig too big a hole for Giants.
The Giants cannot win when they turn the ball over more than their opponent does. So on Sunday against Washington, they weren't able to overcome Eli Manning's three interceptions. They didn't collect any of their own. And even a fourth-quarter rally that featured another dazzling Odell Beckham Jr. touchdown catch wasn't enough.
The Redskins effort boosted by players-only meeting Saturday night.
An airing of players' comments and/or grievances helped the Redskins get on the same page for Sunday's win against the Giants.
Quinton Dunbar, Redskins resiliency lead big win over Giants.
The Washington Redskins needed more corner help this summer, thanks to a depleted roster. Undrafted rookie free-agent receiver Quinton Dunbar responded Sunday, symbolizing in many ways what the Redskins have done as a team.
"We're just in the driver's seat right now," Redskins defensive end Jason Hatcher said. "We've just got to continue winning games and driving the car -- right into the playoffs."
New York trailed 20-0 before making things interesting as Manning threw fourth-quarter TD passes of 40 yards to Rueben Randle and 21 yards to Beckham, who took off from the 2 to make a fantastic diving grab, corralling the ball with his left hand while parallel to the ground.
"What can you say about that?" Redskins left tackle Trent Williams said. "That's not human."
The Giants came in off their bye and with a chance to create space in the standings. Instead, they're 5-6, just like the Redskins, with five games remaining. The Philadelphia Eagles (4-7) and Dallas Cowboys (3-8), both routed on Thanksgiving Day, are the other members of the mediocre division.
Beckham's assessment?
"We came out flat," he said. "Too many mistakes."
On a chilly, dreary day, New York's first two possessions ended when passes by Manning went in and out of receivers' hands and were picked off -- first by linebacker Perry Riley Jr., then by cornerback Will Blackmon. And on the Giants' first drive of the second half, Manning's throw from the 4 was intercepted in the end zone by rookie Quinton Dunbar.
It was the 20th three-interception game of two-time Super Bowl MVP Manning's career; he had only six picks all season until Sunday. He wound up 26 for 51 for 321 yards; Beckham had nine catches for 142 yards.
New York's first 10 drives culminated in three turnovers and seven punts. On the team's 11th possession, Manning finally put some points on the board, hitting Randle. Then came Beckham's highlight-reel grab.
But it was too little, too late.
Washington led 17-0 at halftime, thanks in part to Cousins' 1-yard TD sneak with under 2 minutes to go that generated a full-throated chorus of "Hail to the Redskins!" As the teams headed to the locker rooms soon thereafter, fans gave a standing ovation, a rare salute to a club that has finished last in the NFC East in six of the past seven seasons.
"They done put up with a lot of stuff around here," Hatcher said.
Cousins was 20 for 29 for 302 yards, including the long TD to Jackson -- who taunted the Giants by strutting along the goal line before actually crossing it.
"A spur-of-the-moment thing. I just felt like doing it," said Jackson, who returned punts for the first time this season. "You never know what you get with me."
Cousins' most important stat was probably this: zero interceptions. When the fourth-year QB avoids getting picked off this season, Washington is 5-0; when he throws at least one interception, the team is 0-6.
All part of what's been a wildly fluctuating Redskins team in Gruden's second year.
That's why safety Dashon Goldson said he organized a players'-only meeting Saturday.
"Everybody got stuff of their chest. How they were feeling. What they thought about the team and where we're at and what we need to do to progress," Goldson said. "We're just so much up and down."
For the moment, at least, they're on the upswing.
Red Weasel Media was there to capture all of the action.

I had fun yesterday using SculpeyIII. I need to practice making these a bit smaller, and use longer pins and then I'm "going into business" hopefully selling these at my local quilt shop. (Too bad the owner hasn't even heard of my plan yet. LOL)
