NewTricks Posted April 30, 2023 Author ID:1565173 Share Posted April 30, 2023 @nukecad, you did indeed. Definitely photogenic in the rain. Water droplets are nature's finest jewels (on flowers!) Looks like you caught everything in time. That's the beauty and sadness of spring. Exquisite but transitory. We'll still have some nice blooms in May, but nothing beats those in April after a "long cold lonely winter." 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted May 7, 2023 Root Admin ID:1566352 Share Posted May 7, 2023 There you go. Time outdoors is probably more of what all of us could use. Good shots 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday half of my shots were of Canada Geese and their goslings. Bumped up against the limits of my phone camera, so last night I busted out my Panasonic-I arrived too early this morning for their daily routine, so walked back into Lagoon Park and found their home. Serendipity rules! Stay tuned. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NewTricks Posted May 10, 2023 Author ID:1566717 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Warm weather, ongoing sunshine, fully charged camera, bracketing exposures, avoiding lens flare, and manipulating IrfanView all contribute to better spring days. The image below serves as a placeholder until I can find them on the right day at the right time. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted May 14, 2023 Root Admin ID:1567374 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Happy Mother's Day ah.. I remember days in my youth in streams with so many rocks like this.

NewTricks Posted May 14, 2023 Author ID:1567380 Share Posted May 14, 2023 (edited) I prefer level dry land. My grandson wanted to get me some Yeezy foam slip on shoes, he "only" paid $60, and new ones cost $250-$360. I turned it down.

NewTricks Posted May 15, 2023 Author ID:1567502 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Went to the City Pier today, inspired by @David H. Lipman to get more active. Thanks for the encouragement. This was my favorite haunt prior 2020 and now I'm BACK! We'll start with a morning view, followed by the pier construction itself (fascinating) then adjacent historic boathouses, the spaces between them, followed up by docked pontoon boats, a favorite of the locals. This area is a historic district in New York, and also recognized by the World Atlas. If I had to choose, the lake or the pier, I'd choose the lake. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted May 15, 2023 Root Admin ID:1567513 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Nice area. I had some fun times in my youth out on different lakes. Haven't been out to any though in many years Thanks for sharing @NewTricks 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
