I am husband, father, and grandfather to a wonderful family.

I am a photographer at Ya’akov Sloman Photography

I am a philosopher with no credentials, a technophile polymath, and too old to waste time on bullshit.

Common Grackle—nest pirate. If you zoom in you will see the eye is not closed, it’s a nictitating membrane (second eye lid).

Sunrise on the Magothy River in Severna, Maryland, USA. This is the only day of the year where the alignment with the dock is perfect.

The Mackinac Bridge spanning the Mackinac Straits and connecting the lower an upper peninsulas of Michigan in the US. It is shot from Mackinac Island, in Lake Huron.

The bridge lies off in the distance under pastel skies that star with orange high above and the to pink, and to cyan with dark waters—the usual blue water of the lake looking like highly saturated turquoise. Low waves, less than a meter high, break in a sandy shore in the foreground.

American Goldfinch
#photography #naturephotography #birds #birdphotography
A head an shoulders close up of an American Goldfinch. The bright yellow plumage is set off by black, a patch on the head and part of the visible wing. The head turned to the right, and there is red berry residue on the light orange beak.

Hello. I just arrived and I’m curious about the community here. I primarily post bird photography, though landscapes show up occasionally, as well as discussion of the art and craft of photography. Here are few random but reasonably characteristic shots. #photography #birdphotography #nature
