Noticed a sow bug on the ground while I was working in the yard… So I shot em. I can’t tell you how difficult this is. The front element of my lens (M-PE 65mm) is so close and every time it moves, I have to shift the tray then refocus. It’s a pain in the …

Tamron 150-600mm
I get most all my lenses used via Ebay and this Tamron 150-600mm is no exception. I’ve only had one opportunity to use it but shows promise. Of course when I use this on my 7D2 it has a 240-960mm equivalent.
Samage
Just on a whim I asked if I could shoot Sam. Bill quickly brought him over.
Canine Model Shoot
Did our regular thing. Got Koa, lather rinse repeat, pick up her crap & shoot portraits. I wanted to get some grossly distorted wide angle shots, but she had other things on the agenda. She’s such a princess.
Buggy
I’ve been sick all week and I’m going crazy with nothing to do… Got some bugs from the backyard an asked if I could shoot a few portraits of them. They graciously agreed. This is so hard to get sharp focus as my eyesight is horrible these days.
Koa Portraits
During a Koa dogsitting adventure I decided to test my 2 new cameras. The photo on the left is from the Canon G7X and the photo on the right is from the Sony A6000.
Jenn & Dodger
I haven’t shot a portrait in awhile so what better time than now! Luckily our neighbor Jennifer was willing and I asked her bring Dodger. I couldn’t have chosen a worse day. The wind prevented me from using any light modifiers on my speedlites. I was just about to send her a text message to …
Middle-aged burd
I spotted this burd as I dropped Sandy off at the ferry terminal. I raced back home and grabbed my camera & much to my surprise it hadn’t moved an inch. I waited for the sun to come up and shot him. He has this middle-aged balding man hairdo kinda thing going on.
Pelicans
I was reviewing some photos for a posting when I came across these unpublished works from a cloudy day in August.
Finally Humphrey
Up until recently I just had my camera handy near the back door in case Humphrey came along to feed. In an effort to elevate my photography, I started to light my Humphrey shots. Well of course when I set up my scene he never comes or decides to go elsewhere in the yard. Well …
