Finished dishes, organized our little house while GD played on her phone. Raining ☔️ outside but sunny inside. It’s so pleasant that’s hard to describe. Special moments for sure. 8 Likes

Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #412 – March 18, 2019, 03:27:47 pm Margee loves birds 🦅. I mean really enjoys them. Among her favorite is the Eastern Bluebird. We seldom see them in our neighborhood but occasionally while traveling she’ll spot one which always includes some kind of happy sound. About 3 years ago we installed 2 Bluebird houses in our backyard. Margee would keep an eye 👁 on those bird houses especially during breeding periods. Year after year no one ever took up residence in our bird houses. Four days ago I heard an emotional explosion and rushed into that room. Excitedly Margee said a pair of Bluebirds we’re preparing their nest in one of the houses. (The pic is the best I could do with a phone camera).Margee has settled into a place in the house to watch as things progress. She’s mighty happy. 9 Likes

Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #416 – March 20, 2019, 01:24:58 pm Joel, there was no filter on this shot. I was shooting after the sun had set with a telephoto and a long exposure when the fog moved into the area... I thought edge of the fog gave the scene an "ethereal" look....Bill 3 Likes

Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #420 – March 27, 2019, 01:14:17 pm With a super bloom occurring throughout California's deserts, it was time for a trip to the Antelope Valley Poppy Reserve earlier this week. The crowds were heavy and the line to enter the preserve was over an hour long.Instead, we drove the dirt roads around the north-west side of the Preserve and found as many flowers and didn't have to wait in line or pay to parks. Our Forester proved itself on a few steep trails, where the electronics controlling traction and braking got a work out . My wife noted her car made noises she had never heard before.There is no need to go the Preserve when the desert is booming over such wide areas, get out and see the flowers before it gets hot.On the way home, we stopped at the Arthur B. Ripley Desert Woodland State Park and saw hundreds of Joshua trees in bloom, a sight we had never seen before.Flowers and windmillsLarry 12 Likes

Beautiful shots of beautiful flowers!Isn't that amazing that someone thought is was OK to land a coper in the middle of the busy Poppy Preserve, especially when the signs and rangers were telling everyone to stay on the trails and not to walk on the poppys. At least there is plenty of video evidence of them doing so. Weird thing is that there were many other areas where the flowers are in full bloom, they didn't need to land in the middle of the preserve. I would assume they and the pilot will be cited, hope they throw the book at them.Larry 4 Likes
