Photography

There's something compelling about photos and paintings of boats: Humans and their vessels against a backdrop that can be calm, peaceful, powerful and terrifying, sometimes shifting from one to the other in minutes. Here's @[email protected]'s @[email protected] Storyboard about the technical side of taking photos of boats, as well as archival photography of the U.S. navy and some of his own shots.

#PhotoOfTheDay is another of Yosemite, since yesterday's photo was popular. This is the eastern end of Yosemite Valley, also featuring Half Dome. A truly spectacular natural setting, and my favorite place on Earth.

#PhotoOfTheDay Is a red hot pair on tongs fresh out of the forge. Blacksmiths use a lot of tongs... I love the look of red/orange hot steel!

Happy, coloured, spring Silent Sunday!

the trouble with Sicklebills! my photography skills weren't enough to capture the image of the White-tipped Sicklebill that I wanted-- flying bird was turned & also extremely noisy so I couldn't really capture the bizarrely arched bill but the feeding bird instantly had the sickle wedged deep in the heliconia flower where you couldn't see it

argh
