Only Imperial stormtroopers are so precise. The movies would have been a whole lot shorter if they'd put in the practice!
this building is silver grey, as you can see in the top part. Because of the shadow, it gets a blue hue that I have not corrected. However, I have corrected the verticals.
In a blur of brilliant blue, the kingfisher dives with flawless accuracy, slicing through the air toward the shimmering water below. In a single decisive moment, it emerges victorious—beak clenched around a wriggling fish.
One of my tries for MM 'intended contact' theme, which I realised would be good for 118 pictures 'precision' category.

I was impressed by my friend's software which predicted the moon would show up at the tip of the triangle building.

. . . For my first "photo walk"after having ankle replacement surgery 5 weeks ago, I choose to walk a whole 30 feet into the shade of the Holiday Inn in Traverse City, and watch the incredible Blue Angels do their stuff! Wow!
My kind of photo walk for now, hopefully off crutches in a few weeks! Not sure how I got burnt to a crisp sitting in the 96 degree shade, I blame the water reflection!
Have a great weekend and stay cool if you are at this show!
Cherry red heated, horse shoe being sized and shaped on the miniature anvil that he carries in his work truck.
I saw him working through the open door of his tiny space.
"May I make some photos?", I asked politely.
"Go ahead," he answered and went straight on back to his work. He didn't lift his head, not even when I walked out and thanked him kindly.

Precision strike in the canopy
A Brown-hooded Kingfisher (Halcyon albiventris) grips a freshly caught Striped Skink—a moment of instinct, agility, and survival. These kingfishers aren’t just about water; they’re woodland hunters, often found far from rivers, ambushing insects, small reptiles, and even amphibians.
The U.S. Navy Flight Demonstration, the Blue Angels performed at the Defenders of Freedom Offutt Air Show this past weekend. The Blue Angels are scheduled to perform 68 demonstrations at 34 locations across the U.S. in 2014.
This was a backyard photo. What a thrill to see them right over your house. This was taken at 110mm which gives you an idea of just how close they were. The noise was unbelievable.
This is my 0.7 Monalisa. I love it so much <3

Quonset State Airport Airshow and Open House 2015
The Blue Angles at the Rhode Island Airshow 2015. Traffic was horrendous getting to the show. Especially on Route 403. It took one hour to drive the last six miles to the airport. Even watched the Canadian Snowbirds performing while on the highway. Trekked a two mile round trip on foot with camera equipment and tripod, I didn't use due to the crowds. The icing on the cake was seeing this spectacular team perform at day's end. Beautiful weather and lots of great performers.
My appreciation and thanks to all of you that have commented awarded, and faved.
