My car obsession
The latest Mini Challenge (#316 - Old Cars or trucks - restored) has spurred me to review some of the classic car portraits I've done in the past. Had to share some of them. Sorry for the numerous shots - too many to choose from. I did say it was an obsession! '32 Ford Coupe '38 Ford Custom (aka Chick Magnet named by the… -
First wedding of the year -- stupid Crohn's :) Late start in Coronado.
I've momentarily stopped taking on new wedding clients due to my complications with Crohn's disease. This one, however, was one I couldn't pass up on. More context on that here I had the flu, a fever, and intestinal bleeding -- but I was not missing this wedding :) CnC are welcomed. Thanks! Bobby 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12… -

Kool April Nites - 2017
We took Daisy (our 41 Chevy) up to Kool April Nites In Redding this past April to once again enjoy the Friday night cruise and Saturday Show and Shine. The cruise is my favorite car photo op - as I install myself in the middle of the road in a crosswalk behind a tree to try to capture all the beauties (mechanical that is)… -
Melanchra persicariae - the caterpiller of the Dot Moth.
A rather large caterpillar here, it was perhaps an inch and a half long (that's 1½ in old numbers)... After a little bit of research I have identified it as the caterpillar of a Dot moth, Latin name as in the title, Melanchra persicariae. This one was originally munching on a penstemon leaf, but for the compositional aid,… -
Re: Any REAL alternative than 2 panos on one print?
Jim, That's the same thing I get now...I believe (although I could be wrong as I haven't done pricing in quite a while) sometime between June 17 at 1:48 a.m. and June 21 at 9:41 p.m. you reset the pricing to $0.00 on those items - but in your control panel under "Printing" you are still enabling "Printable? Yes" (see a… -

Re: Maximum Display Size
All of the galleries on my site that I've looked at so far (from recent to those created many years ago) that were previously set to X3Large are now set to "All But Original". I have already reset galleries in the Fragments category to X3Large but I haven't touched the other categories yet. So far I have found only 1… -
Found a late Harlequin ladybird...
I found a harlequin ladybird today, managed a reasonable shot, but when I was doing the editing I realised I had left my camera 1.5 stops under exposed from when I was doing some bracketing recently, so that made the PP a little more tiresome, but in the end, it came out OK. I also used a reflector to bounce some light in…
