For those of us who only get caught because the can of whip cream makes a distinct noise, can the industry please come up with a silent option? I will pay double.

The sexy pair of resurrected classics. These are the types of cameras (Hasselblad) used on the moon. Yes, THAT moon.

Managed to get two Hasselblad cameras working today! Thank god for mechanical devices and a screwdriver. Love the feel of a medium format camera and solid lens.

But alas, these go on eBay after I test the light seal and shoot a couple rolls of film.

A panorama photograph of a "tunnel" of small trees and shrubs on a trail in British Columbia. The small trees and shrubs are mostly Hazelnut, but there are other species as well. Fog has drifted through the scene, and the trail is lined with moss and ferns.

#SilentSunday

Early morning in the Everglades. Sure, this is just off the parking lot for the visitors center, but still pretty light.

New episode of CANNED in which our guest is fired many, many times before finding her way to something that makes sense.

No shit?

Never good when the suits come down from the 47th floor.

Well shit….

Racetrack Grandstand Mirage

If you don't like your car too much, take a drive down to the Racetrack in Death Valley National Park. It's a dry lakebed that sometimes has mysterious rocks roving the playa. Out in the middle(ish) is a rock outcropping call the Grandstand, which seems a bit odd…

White Ibis Giving Me A Stare-down Here in LA we don't have a lot of ibises so I enjoy them when travels, birding or work or vacation, take me to where they live. In this case, the Everglades of Florida.

Through The Open Tunnel Way out at Dry Tortugas National Park, a set of keys 70 miles from Key West, there is a fort that never saw battle. Sometimes it was a prison and now it is a National Park. Bricks were brought from the mainland over 150 years ago and have weathered many a hurricane.

That ain’t nuthin’! Our federal government paid a company $950mil to not use its offshore wind lease and instead develop oil and gas in Texas.

You aren’t dissing Hansen. That’s not a question.

Zero TSA wait at LAX.

Tracking Through The Sands Around the US West there are seemingly random pockets of sand dunes. This set is close to the Nevada/California border and are a favorite for the ATV crowd. Calle the Big Dunes, they are maybe 300' all and on BLM land.

News Flash, USA: The President says he doesn’t like any of the DHS deals but guess what? It’s up to Congress as they can override a veto.

Early morning at Artist’s Palette in Death Valley National Park.

All national parks are better early in the morning.

Yak Caravan In Nepal

Trekking in Nepal is always made easier with yaks or dzokyos (cross breed cow/yak) carrying your gear. And someone to handle them.

Winding Through Bhutan

There aren't many straight roads in Bhutan. It is a very mountainous country often times with room for only one point five cars on a road. Recent improvements for the main artery across the country have vastly improved travel times, though.

A Light On The Hills They finally have that new stretch of pavement down and the construction speed signs are gone along Highway 395 in Owens Valley. And from that stretch you can see clear across Owens Lake to new patches of snow, this one advantageously lit.

Desert High Cloud Sunset I really love trips where I can combine multiple subjects or hobbies or whatnot and my last quick overnight to the desert was no exception. The day started with capturing a number of drone images of the signs of Lone Pine, a post that is coming up soon. Then I did some lowkey birding at Diaz Lake. Before I worked on figuring out my astrophotography setup, there was the treat of this sunset. I'm a sucker for sunset picture and they never grow old for me.
