    I just came across this wonderful pic you took Joe. So adorably cute! I could be their twin....as at that age I too had fire red hair and a face full of freckles. In those days though I think the only pics of me were in B&W. Besides that, there wasn't a a National Redhead day back then :( ...

    That is so kind of you and I couldn't agree more with your statement about missed opportunities although a few minutes prior to that Metro train (which generally stop for no one (and did for the fireworks)....a beautiful freight train with large diesel engine with double big headlights and some...

    Joe, you did it with SL2, and with the Z7 and now with the GFX 100s. Goes to show it isn't the equipment but the talent and ability of the photographer. As usual, your bird imagery regardless of the camera system used is as spectacular as ever. Most impressive!! Dave (D&A)

    Thank you! From the link you provided, that looks exactly what it probably is, especially that the link's image is from Florida. So many interesting species of birds in South Florida that I've never seen up north. Appreciate the info and identification! Dave (D&A)

    Hi Darin...thanks ever so much. Yes, getting down to the Tidal Basin & National Cherry Blossom Trees in Washington D.C. was a bit of a nightmare this year, with all the road closures as you mentioned due to both security as well as pandemic health concerns of possible crowd sizes. It required...

At the moment, it's still slightly early, as many buds haven't fully opened. Peak to the causal eye is when the surfaces beneath the trees just begin...
