We had to get Koa ready for Easter Sunday so a little dog polo and a mango scented bath was called for.
A few portraits after her spa treatment.
Koa’s Spa Day
Coot Wars
Sat out this morning coffee in one hand 7D2 in the other. Not a big fan of coots but they were very active. It must be mating season. So do they fly or walk on water?
Cormorant poop @ 10fps
Its so easy to shoot burds in our backyard. Cormorants are playful and very active. They are either diving for fish or spreading the wings in the sun
My Sony A6000 can capture 10fps (frames per second) I’ll spare you all the poop shots but I knew he would do this, the bastard.

Shanky
When we dined at Bodega Bay I had a great Lamb Shank dish. I liked it so much I did my best to duplicate it.
I have to say it came out great I think I nailed it. Braised in a whole bottle if Zin and 2.5 hrs later.
Birthday Lunch 2015
This year I wanted to do something different for my birthday. I wanted to relive the living under one roof, rent-a-house (Half Moon Bay) in Italy type thing. Well that didn’t quite work out so we decided on lunch instead. Luckily Rick’s friend, Francisco owns Flavors in HMB so off we went. Food was excellent, received some lovely gifts but my birthday was upstaged by Cait & Matt’s announcement. I hope to shoot engagement fotos soon.
Yes this is a composite so don’t look too closely.
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.
Birthday 2015
This year for my birthday Sandy made reservations at the Bodega Bay Lodge. We could only stay 1 day but it was so relaxing. Their restaurant, the Duck Club was excellent. I had a superb lamb shank and Sandy had the sole in parchment paper, neither of which gave us diarrhea. The next morning we made a very slow drive down highway 1 through Point Reyes and Stinson Beach. What a wonderful way to spend a birthday.
Samage
Just on a whim I asked if I could shoot Sam. Bill quickly brought him over.
