You never know what you'll get for photo opportunities at the local State or County Fair, am I right?

We are already 50 cents higher here. Need to remind all his deplorables that they voted for this.

Making me want to go fly my drone! If only we weren't having 20mph gusts today.

I found one of his feathers in the greenhouse yesterday. Wish he would shed one of those super long tail feathers for me to photograph!

My #pheasant buddy is back again! And its totally because he enjoys our company and not because someone is leaving canned corn in the greenhouse...

They made me sit through the entire garbage bag documentary in order to write a review, so I just kept hitting fast forward until the end.

While it did let me write a review, they aren't letting anyone see what score the film has or what reviews have already been written (of course).

No worries, understandable. There are times when you'll never get that clean no people shot (like in Arches NP and trying to get that shot of Delicate Arch) and you work with what your given.

Day 69 of #365PhotoADay - Happy #RockinTuesday!

Before my mom passed away, I had taken the time to photograph the many rocks in her #rock hound collection. This is a #gemstone called Rhodocrosite and her piece came from Brazil.

Nicely captured!

I don't have that kind of patience and would have taken 4 to 8 shots to use in editing and layer in the image parts needed to remove people.

I will, however, take the time to give it a review...

Though, it looks like the hashtag #wck is used a lot for the charity organization World Central Kitchen (WCK). Think I'll keep typing out WestCoastKin.

They use a horrible compression code here. Anything that has lots of camera movement or action in the video results in horrible artifacts.

It is better to upload to YouTube and then post your YouTube video here. Better image quality without the file size and length restrictions.

Day 66 of #365PhotoADay pt 3 - #BlueSkyArtShow #Flowing

The Norrh Fork Park, near Liberty #Utah, has a short hike to view the North Fork #Waterfall. Best time is early spring to get good water flowing.

This was one of the smartphone captures that I had not gotten around to editing. Luminar Mobile used to touch it up.

My #pheasant buddy was back this morning, but because the kids were eyeballing him from the windows, he had took off by the time I got my camera. #Smartphone capture from his last viisit.

This one is simple.

Because for a malignant narcissist like cheetos-lips, he refuses to have it look like he made yet another horrendous decision like putting the dog-killer into the job in the first place.

I had to give Dutch Bros a 1 star review on their app. I've had it on my phone for about 4 months and it STILL doesn't let me place orders for pickup. If you read the reviews in the Google store you'll see pretty much everyone has the same issue.
