Interestingness #376 - 9 July 2008
This horse was extremeley friendly, but he was fenced in an oblong pen. I had an incredibly difficult time finding a way to shoot a picture of him without distracting backgrounds getting in the way. Finally I gave up and just took a close up shot of his eye, it was the only angle I could make work.
We have had small groups of pelicans coming through our part of the Elk River on migration! The pelican scouts came about 3 weeks ago and now, groups are passing through! Amazing to see! Feels like a good omen!
May not be the most creative shot for the theme, but decided to an outdoor shot, as the day was so beautiful!
Three BNSF GE’s are in charge of this westbound intermodal as it punches through thick morning fog on a damp August morning in Coram.
I wasn't prepared for this shot at all, the clouds didn't cooperate. When the sun poked through a tiny gap in the clouds, I had a very short time to capture it. Best I could do. 3 seconds after I hit the shutter, the sun was gone.
While it's not perfect, In the end, I kinda like the drama!

Begin Mission Log:
So, we've made it onto Manaan. Those stupid bugs put up a good fight but we bested them. Their temple is quite interesting, all of those big pillars. Stupid spiritual assassins and their beliefs.
My men work the best underwater. We just seem to flow and fight the best here. This will be one of the funnest campaigns yet.
End Mission Log

The dragonfly was very patient with me and I think after bruised knees and sore elbows it was worth it.
Just west of Rollins, an eastbound BNSF oil train approaches a clear (green) signal at the west switch of Rollins. The train passes the Winter Park Express at Fraser and had enough time to make it through the Moffat ahead of the Winter Park Express.

I have been looking for poppies fields for the last few weeks along with most landscape photographers I would imagine, caught sight of these in the distance after a long walk on the downs. Manged to work out the best way to get there so with the alarm set at 3.15 off I went.

An important thing to remember is that even though pixel sizes keep getting smaller and smaller, the technology is advancing, so the smaller pixels are more efficient at collecting light. For instance, the Sony A7rII is back-illuminated which allows more photons to hit the sensor. Semiconductor technology is always advancing, so the brilliant engineers are always improving the signal/noise ratio. Far higher pixel counts, as well as better dynamic ranger, are thus not only possible, but the future!
Yes I have a Ph.D. in physics! I worked on phototranistors and photodiodes as well as an artificial retina for the blind. :)

View your artistic mission into photography as an epic odyssey of heroic poetry! Take it from Homer in Homer's Odyssey: "Tell me, O muse, of that ingenious hero who travelled far and wide after he had sacked the famous town of Troy. Many cities did he visit, and many were the nations with whose manners and customs he was acquainted; moreover he suffered much by sea while trying to save his own life and bring his men safely home; but do what he might he could not save his men, for they perished through their own sheer folly in eating the cattle of the Sun-god Hyperion; so the god prevented them from ever reaching home. Tell me, too, about all these things, O daughter of Jove, from whatsoever source you may know them. " --Samuel Butler Translation of Homer's Odyssey
All the best on your Epic Hero's Odyssey from Johnny Ranger McCoy!
One can only imagine what goes through their minds ? Here this large westerner has signaled if it was O.K to take a picture . At 6'3 and 240 I turn a few heads in Asia , I could only try to imagine what this little guy was thinking .
Taken this morning on a walk in a local park - I couldn't decide which version I preferred so decided to upload both!
Walking the streets anywhere in Cuba nets you generous opportunities to see people go about their daily lives. I don't quite know how employment and unemployment work in a socialist economy, since, I would imagine everyone has a job, but there are an awful lot of people hanging around everywhere you go with what would appear to be an abundance of time.
