Yet another belated #BlueSkyArtShow post—this is the Erie Canal path at Manitou Road, west of Rochester. One of my faves.

I've been experimenting with dandelion shots. There are so many variables: sharp vs soft, detailed vs floofy or some of both, background and separation, composition. The breeze cooperated today, and I finally got some shots I liked.

If you ever get the chance to go to Fort Ticonderoga on the New York border with Vermont, there is an osprey nesting platform down behind the fort, on the grounds of the King's Garden. On one visit, mama and papa were pushing a fledgling out of the nest, and mama was giving me the evil eye.

Chinese American
It seems fashionable to rail against the Chinese, yet we still have them make our flags. From 2010.

Elephant eye
One of the girls (I forget which) at #SenecaParkZoo, from 2010. Elephants and rhinos are both pachyderms, literally "thick skin". Elephant eyes appear so ancient and wise—they are gentle giants.

Rhino butt 😏
Jiwe, a young rhino at #SenecaParkZoo, from 2021. He's a sweet boy, but he wasn't feeling too interactive at the moment.

@rina2012.bsky.social , couldn't help noticing your profile pic—this is my current weapon of choice when not carrying a DSLR. It's also a kind of personal tradition to take a selfie in this mirror whevenver I get a new camera. I just had to clean off the kitchen schmutz first.

For earth day, these images remind me of grains and how we send on them. They’re actually swap grass on the shore of a pond, but grains are grasses (mostly?).

Should have said this earlier—to visualize what is happening precisely, click View, then Histogram.

I dragged a raw image from my imports folder to Apple Photos and clicked on Edit.—you also can drag directly from your camera or card. I clicked on the reveal caret for Light, then Options.
