I went to Florida in May 2022. Going to Brian Piccolo Park to photograph burrowing owls was my top priority. Instead of one day, I ended up going there for 3 days. I obsessed with their big innocent eyes.

It was a rainy day in late afternoon. I was in and out of a car due to pouring rain. Finally there were 6 of them coming out of a hole. They were inactive and I could tell it was their naptimes as they closed their eyes almost all the time. Although there was a marching band practice nearby which was very loud, they still barely open their eyes.

After waiting in a position for a long time and I started to get sleepy, luck was on my side. A big dog came to rescue! It walked to toward them and barked repetitively. Suddenly, miracle happened. They all opened their eyes. My patience paid off. I snapped shots repetitively. Within seconds, most of them were gone.

Processing some old Sony A7c images from the pandemic era (quiet places with few people around). This was at Sapsucker Woods in the public pond viewing area in the lab of ornithology. My wife and I were the only ones there in addition to the receptionist near the entrance. Shot with an old Contax N 24-85 in a Fringer AF adapter.

Thanks KH. That gives a view to the pond and the feeders right in front of the window. Or you could just nod off and gently rock yourself into a pleasant nap.

Here is the live view of the feeders just outside the window at the end of the hall.

Yesterday I took a short drive to Fort Lillo, a small village/fortification on the river Schelde downstream of Antwerp.


Kazerneplein (=Barracks square). The brick building on the left is the former gunpowder storage.

Hazy late-December morning above Boulder Colorado.

Not long after snapping this photo, we encountered heavy cloud cover which seemed to extend from the Colorado Rocky Mountains, almost all the way to Hawaii. The cluster of buildings standing alone on the mesa is the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR).
