Neowise Comet plus Jupiter

Photography

Here’s my attempt to capture the Neowise Comet. There is too much light pollution around here.

Then I turned and captured Jupiter. I didn’t know until I got home, I could see some of the moons!

Morning Birds on a Wire

Photography

These barn swallows are here most every day when I go on my morning walk. Today they had a nice background.

It looks like they are “social Distancing” well. I wonder what they are talking about?

Yesterday morning was a nice and crisp so I stepped out on the driveway. The birds were chirping and flying around. As I looked up towards the heavens, I noticed the crisscrossing contrails of the high flying jets along with the Cirrocumulus clouds.

This was at about 7:15 am. These folks must have gotten up real early!

City Sky

Photography

Living in the city has it’s advantages, except for traffic, and skylines among a few other things.

I have to be selective when I take pictures of a nice sunrise or sunset to avoid all the other stuff around. It takes about an hour to drive somewhere else to see the horizon.

But sometimes…

2018 in Review

Photography

Here it is. January, 2019. 2018 is all a blur now. I wanted to have this ready by the first but a bout with a cold kept my peanut brain occupied.

Here are some pictures I took throughout the year. I am only posting one photo per month. Its kind of hard when I have a little less that 9000 pictures from 2018. And that’s not counting some from the cell phone.
