Count the Hummingbirds — Late Summer 2021
I usually have a few "find the hummingbird" photos each hummingbird season. I've already had a few, and I'll likely have a few more. However, today I'm doing something different, and you'll soon understand why. https://youtu.be/rdSrSzmOMoI That video was shot with the P900. Unfortunately, I forgot to tweak the settings for the video so that... Continue Reading →
Bonus Alphabet Challenge “T” Stories voting day and videos

This post will show two versions of videos; one version captured with the Nikon P900, and the other captured with the Samsung Note 8.

Recharging
There are times when my disgust for some human beings affects my ability to relax, to think, to enjoy the moments I have left on this miserable rock. Sometimes it's the person putting other people at risk by driving like a dick. Sometimes it's crossing obnoxious and uncaring assholes as one goes about life.... Continue Reading →
The Power of Words
I came across this video. Yes, it is an ad. Yes, it's contrived. But for writers, and secondarily for everyone, it shows an example of saying the same thing, but with different words. As contrived as it was, admit it . . . you felt it too. Words do matter, both spoken and written.... Continue Reading →
Tree Swallows – Phone Camera and Real Camera
On the last post I mentioned the Samsung Note II smartphone, and the photos it takes. The quality of the photos are highly dependent on the lighting (the flash on the phone kind of sucks, as does the flash on most phones). These next two shots are of one of the weekend teas my wife...

Spinning Redux
Apparently YouTube is rather sensitive about using stuff with logos or product names. In response, I am adding/replacing a few videos. Namely, I'm replacing the Pellegrino bottle with the naked version of the same bottle. Plus, I happened to spin one of the cans we use to hold coffee beans . . . and guess... Continue Reading →
Spinning Is as Spinning Does
Apparently, I am annoying on a number of levels, and for many reasons. Something which annoys others to no end, and it has mystified me as to why it is so, is my propensity to spin stuff. I like to spin coins, rings, and anything which looks like it can be spun. Better yet, I... Continue Reading →
The Busy Bees – Summer 2012
Yes, a movie . . . not an Oscar winner, or even a contender, but at least I remembered the damn option. Sorry for the shifting focus . . . Hand held, and the lens was on auto-focus. Thanks for stopping by. I hope the visit was the bee's wax. Almost forgot; click HERE for... Continue Reading →
Another Potential (Expensive) Pastime
So, I'm not likely to ever duplicate Matt's effort to bring together a multitude of people and provide inspiration/entertainment/joy to literally millions. . . . but this is actually within the range of both my means and abilities . . . I've already shared this next one on FaceBook, Pinterest, and regular e-mail, but... Continue Reading →
