Retired. I am an Amateur Radio Operator, Amateur Photographer (I am famous for wearing out a Nikon FS2 Camera Body), and a Refugee from Twitter(X).
I'm an Amateur Radio operator. some of the events we do is provide a safety net of eyes at events such as walk-a-thons, runs, and bicycle rides.

We had to get in place hours before the event. I was placed near a beautiful rose garden @ the University of the Pacific, Stockton #floral #flowers #roses

I saw a report and a few nice images of the return of the sandhill cranes to the refuges around the San Joaquin/Sacramento Delta area. It is worth sharing. I will be in the area north of Lodi later this week. #birds

A study with two images., 1) standing there ankle-deep in water, looking at the incoming wave of cold water. 2) The look of shock of on a face as the wave hits their legs

People and ocean waves. Mild surf and cold Pacific water makes for odd reactions, even if you are ready

45% of my subjects are birds. I like places where I can take multiple shots of the same subject. The three were taken on a small 'San Gregorio' beach. The three images are a study taken several minutes apart as the subject worked the water's edge. The fourth was shot during my lunch break. #birds

This is a song sparrow. He would move away and hide behind plants & was elusive. I was using my old Canon EOS because it had a faster repeat frame rate compared to my Nikon D60. This was shot in the dunes west of US Highway 1, between Costanoa RV park & Pigeon Pt Light House. #birds #photography.
