06-05-12 Once In A Blue Moon
On a recent flight to California I had a first class ticket because that's all there was on this particular flight and I had no choice. This is how the other half lives at the front of the plane. (They have real glasses and real metal eating utensils.)

I had the perfect seat on a perfect southern California day.

This was taken with my iPhone from 40,000 feet. If I have a choice, I always pick a window seat on the side of the plane that is in shadow so I can shoot with the light behind me, so to speak. On this day, it was brilliantly clear as we flew over the Grand Canyon.

06-01-12 Flowers For Katie I
in Nature
Once again a photo found me. I was engaged in the mundane task of putting our garbage receptacle away, when I noticed that the late evening sun was offering perfect, direct light on Deb's beautiful Siberian iris patch, which had just gone into bloom. Knowing that I only had a few minutes of this particular light, I literally ran into the house to get my camera.I took 92 photos of these flowers - I just couldn't help it! Compositionally, this one made the "first cut," in part because I am a slave to the rule of thirds and this photo exemplifies it. I shot this with my Canon 70-200 2.8L lens so I could get very good selective focus. And, I used a tripod.Canon 5DII 1/640s f/2.8 ISO320 200mm

in Animal
I was walking down our hallway to the kitchen on Sunday when I noticed Mac chasing some dark thing towards me. I though it was a toy at first but then I noticed that it was furry and running like hell. I think I might have screamed as Mac and the harry thing ran past me.I thought it was a mole at first but when I found the animal cowering behind a hard drive in my den, I saw that it was a baby rabbit. Deb came to the rabbit's rescue and he was released to the wild. In our back yard.Will Mac find him again? Maybe. Will the rabbit find our deck door wide open, as he did on Sunday? No way!
05-29-12 Lisbon Trolly #12
Lisbon is famous for its vintage trolleys and If you go, you have to ride them. They are especially useful for making your way up the fairly steep hills that guard the relatively narrow central part of Lisbon. The other good thing about riding local mass transit like this, is that you get to mix with locals, who don't view the trolly as a novelty but as a practical way to get around.
