Habitat for the Mini Dinos



I did this for the Dinos, not because we are trapped in the house.  Covid19 is in Colorado but we are not on lock down, not yet anyway.  I planned on building the Dino habitat sooner but buying a new camera and going out to Denver last weekend just delayed things a bit.

I tried the in camera focus stacking...not so good.  I ended up getting a lot of ghosting.  Think I will stick with the Fuji XT3 for macro focus stacking and merge them Affinity Photo.  I really need to get out of the house and try some landscape focus stacking.  Just waiting for the weather.

I finally got a good shot of the Stegosaurus, he just came out all wonkey in the studio shots. I think he is happier in his new home.

Camera: Olympus OMD EM1 Mark III






We got another bouquet of flowers too - these are handheld shot wither Olympus.

Grand Teton and Yellowstone - Wyoming!

The second road trip of the year we headed to northern Wyoming to visit the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone.  We stayed in Colter Bay, a village in the Grand Tetons, renting a rustic cabin for 4 nights.  This was the home base for our adventures of exploration in the parks. We had a bit of weather the first two days, after all it is Wyoming and you always have to be prepared for anything.  It was quite cold, around the lower 40s in the day time , cloudy and rainy.  We bring our 'Wyoming Bag' on every road trip (gloves, beanies, and 32 degree jackets). This is not great weather for photography, but we pushed through. We brought the IR converted Lumix cameras just for fun. We did some cool stuff in infrared in the Badlands two weeks ago and wanted to keep the trend going.   Camera: FujiFilm XT5, Lumix LX 100, iPhone  Grand Tetons in Infrared  We started the trip in Cody, Wyoming over the weekend intending to avoid the weekenders in the parks.  We strol...

Road Trip Home

  I am ready for the pandemic to be over so I can get back to world travel. What I am really missing is traveling with a tour company where they plan everything and all I have to do is show up. For this trip we took two weeks vacation and drove out to the San Francisco Bay Area with a few stops here and there. It was time to see the family - it has been a while. Cameras: Fujifilm XT4; Lumix LX100 IR Conversion Suisun City Waterfront, California Utah Salt Lake City is a good halfway point from Denver.  For the Utah stop,  I chose Antelope Island to search for Ibis to photograph. That meant that we would need to bring the big glass, so needless to say, again, we had a bunch of gear with us.  Antelope Island State Park is actually within the Great Salt Lake and there were buffalo!  The website mentioned buffalo on the island, but my luck of never seeing them where the websites say they are,  I was not expecting to see any.  The buffalo were roaming free o...

Knosos - Crete

The big archaeologic site on Crete is Knosos.  According to Greek mythology, the palace was designed by famed architect Dedalos with such complexity that no one could ever find its exit once inside. King Minos who commissioned the palace kept the architect prisoner to ensure that he would not reveal the palace plan to anyone. Dedalos, a great inventor, built two sets of wings so he and his son Ikaros could fly off the island, and so they did. On their way out, Dedalos warned his son not to fly too close to the sun because the wax that held the wings together would melt. The son flew too high and fell to his death in the Aegean.  Camera: Fuji XT20 The Minoans were a peaceful peopled put all their energy into innovations.  They has sewer systems and brought in clean drinking water that they piped to the site from the river and underground springs.  The river no longer exists today but Crete has an underground aquifer and is largely self sufficient...
