School of them after minnows in the creek behind Mom's house. No geese or ducks in the creek, but Common Egret, Blue Heron, Green Heron, Cormorant, and Osprey were often there. Surprised to see Osprey there, they usually have migrated by now.
I saw the claw before I saw the rest of him. Freaked me out a little. Apparenty he lives in my pond - yikes!
I found this guy on the road. He was about a foot long, not huge for a snapper. I made sure he made it safely into the ditch after our photo session.
Some reckless person requested more retro Vox pictures. Mmm, with a photographer dad, there are a LOT of them...
This is a small fragment of a slide from our 1970 San Francisco trip. We were in front of Alioto's and Fisherman's Wharf doing classic touristic sightseeing. That's mom behind me, looking worried as I dart off into traffic.
I like this shot because of A) the groovy dresses; B) you can get a better look at the Instamatic 500 I was using--it really was a decent camera; and C) you can see the young Vox completely oblivious to everything except getting the next shot....
This photog at the West Lane Remembrance Service was wearing an Air Cadets tie and moved around to gain the very best positions to capture his images. Hearing the clatter from his DSLR (not in "quiet" mode) made me really appreciate the total silence of a mirrorless camera (in silent mode).
Think he could be using a Nikon D750 with a Nikkor 24-120mm f/4.

The Red Snapper is complete!
It only took a year.
He is made from lots of different patterns of fabric, stuffed with cotton and mounted on a fabric covered plaque.
This is my favorite species of fish in the aquarium. It's so colorful and graceful, with its long flowing fins. It wasn't listed in the slide show showing the names of the different species, though, so I had to ask the guy who was giving the interactive presentation about the aquarium. And if you know how hard it is for guys to ask for directions, you'll know how much I liked this fish.
