focus!

I’ve been so spoiled by auto-focus – laughing. Ugh. Just to prove to myself I still had my old K-1000 chops, I shot a few down by the river today on manual. Zoom, moving subjects… I used-to-could shoot that way but apparently need a bit more practice. That or I’ll just switch back to auto. nah….

Caught this shot as she was rootin’ around for lunch today. Her mate and their little ones were just across on the shore.

sunset

Caught the last of the day through this lily. As much rain as we’ve had here in Michigan, it’s nice to catch the sun every now and then.

Achimota

I spent part of this morning on the phone to some friends overseas. We’re trying to get funding going for digitizing work, but as happens sometimes we got distracted talking about golf. I’d like to go back and get in one more round here at Achimota, as well as the 50,000 Cedi (~$5 before redenomination) I lost….

Fisher visionnaire deux

If I use a fancy-soundin’ French title y’all won’t notice this is another from yesterday’s shooting. Right?

Another from inside the Fisher building.

Fisher

Anybody else remember the Fisher Body Works tag on the chrome beneath the door on the GM cars from yesteryear? I was in Detroit for a meeting today – got a call on the drive down that we’d been pushed back 30 minutes. I parked, then ran over to the Fisher Building on Grand Ave. I’ve yet to catch a play in the theater, but I so love this building. May post some more from here later on.

Love the polarizer on the lens.

chipping

Yes, I have a chipping green in my backyard. Can’t putt on it, but for practice chips it’s fun. Until the mosquitoes come out.
