I am trying something different here. Added a diffuser to the off camera flash and a snoot to throw some light onto only part of the image ( to the right of the flower). Working on "feathering" the light in a delicate way...whatdayathink?

The bloom speaks for itself! But the highlight make the foliage stand out... I like it!

Very nice. The flower has a soft glow offset by the highlights cast to its side. Glorious image for an Easter Morning Glory.

Happy Easter, all. He is risen! Taken at Easter services in the Sunken Gardens in Atascadero. The building is Atascadero City Hall.

Whale shark feeding in Indonesia.  Shark is about 35 feet long and quite docile.

Soft Corals and anemones in the Forgotten Islands, Indonesia.  84-86 degree water and 100+ foot visibility makes long hours underwater a joy.

Wonderful shots, Harold! I can see why you missed Morro Bay!

Thanks Greg,
It was an amazing experience.  It was a trip exclusively for photographers and Cyndy and I were on the boat for 12 days. I spent all day, every day underwater working on my wide angle techniques, especially lighting.  At night we would show images and share ideas and techniques. I learned a lot from some great underwater photographers!

I noticed this while browsing in an antique shop in Cayucos. I thought some of you electrical gurus might appreciate it. I have no idea how it works, though!

 :o  :o  :o  Wow, that's a neat old antique example of a series Ammeter. And, it appears to be in it's original box, a collectors item at a bargain basement price to boot! Belongs in a museum!   ;D

It's Springtime at our ranch and the flowers are showing their best. There are magnolia trees throughout our woods and it is a pleasure walking about there. The confederate jasmine fragrance mixed with the magnolia blossoms permeates the air all around the house. The amaryllis went crazy this year at the front of the house as did the spider wort by the garage. The coral bean grows around in the woods. This is the first time the blue flay iris bloomed this year.

Just arrived at Pismo State Campground North Beach. Surprised to see three other LD’s here.

One of the rigs at Pismo. I thought Larry might be interested in it.

Luckily, before I left Mexico I found someone to wash and wax my Lazy Daze.  I made sure they did the roof and he spent quite a bit of time.

Greg, 
You are braver than me.  I'm always nervous when washing the roof.  Lately, I do it inside the barn so I can use the ceiling rafters for support.  One fall off the roof might be the end of my Lazy Daze travels!

I have to do this job this afternoon.

Dave,
Beautiful photos! 
We are planning a trip to Quebec and the maritime provinces next year.  We are thinking about doing it without the Jeep and carrying e-bikes for short trips.  It looks like you aren't towing.  How was the trip without a toad?

Thanks,
Harold

For those who like cloud images.  A rare 'pop-corn' arrangement.

Hi Harold,

Hasn’t been a problem, with a couple caveats:

We ducked into Montreal for the day, parked at the Walmart near the Namur metro station, so we could take the Metro to a few favorites places:  Kouign Amann Bakery, Boulangerie Le Toledo, Jean Talon Market, and Fruiterie Milano.   All HIGHLY recommended, especially the first one😋😋😋.    That was as much city driving as I wanted.

Visited Old Quebec City by cheating, parked the RV at Camping de la Joie, 20 minutes to the north, then caught an Uber down to the Fairmont Le Château Frontenac for three nights (staying there was on Bonnie’s bucket list).  That said, that campground was a fine spot, and they provide a shuttle to/from Old Quebec several times a day, $10 round trip per person, perfect if you want to see Old Quebec City.

We were WAY too early visiting the Gaspé Peninsula, as Forillon National Park doesn’t staff & open campgrounds until May 31st, and every other campground along the way follows suit.  Still was a lovely drive, but didn’t anticipate things opening so late.  French was VERY dominant in this part of Quebec, was very rare to find an English speaker.



Just reached New Brunswick today, with Nova Scotia & PEI to follow before crossing over to Newfoundland.  It’s really only the major cities that require planning, but then I’ve become very adept, bordering on (stupidly) fearless on driving any paved roads, city or not.    But being 3 feet shorter is a huge difference for where I can go
