My flight home tonight was a bit turbulent. At one point my iWatch popped up to congratulate me for meeting my activity goal for the day.

Ever seen a hurricane test of a window? An air cannon launches a 2x4 at 35mph at the window, which has to stop it and reject it.

They’re all great, John.
There’s “someone’s tumbleweed isn’t coming home tonight.”
“I hope the mast isn’t too tall to get under this bridge.”
From the cockpit, “Brace for impact!”
“Which way is up?”
“My feet are cold and wet, but it was worth it.”
“A stroll on the boardwalk.”
“Cool. Too bad rain doesn’t come in colors.”
A lonely flower waiting to dance with a bee.

@carlprothman There’s a place for both perspectives. A tv can display wonderful things “from afar”, but some times it’s fun to magnify the screen and see the RGB pixels too - especially thru a small drop of water.

@JadeHelmReports Conservation of energy says that you can’t get more power/energy from the hydrogen than the battery that sorted it. So, just use the battery and skip the hydrogen part.

@Dan_Kinghorn77 What do I say? Forget focus: How the hell did you fill the frame without cropping on a flying bird? 🤣

@carlprothman This one is almost too colorful. Contrasts “old and weary” with “bright and cheerful”

If you have time, I would love to see this in sepia.

@carlprothman Old leaky wood barns are also a favorite subject for me.
In this instance you featured the barn’s old tired condition (up close) verses the loneliness of the prairie (as in your pic of a barn from a distance). Each perspective has merit.

@kmabecky This was all in one morning walk? My walks don’t look like that-a lot more concrete!

@carlprothman @aestheticspost_ Were there campers on the snow slopes too? This pic creates lost to questions in my mind. Nice.

[AggieEngineer @AggieEngineer1]

@aestheticspost_ Very nice.

@AgathaChocolats You did what with that popsicle?

[AggieEngineer @AggieEngineer1]

Sound like you are having some fun with the iPhone. A while back I switched to 17ProMax, which was a substantial camera upgrade.

One trick learned is that during long exposures, include a stationary object in the field of view. The camera logic seems to use it as a reference point to adjust for movement. Then the stars are dots, not blurs, even handheld.

Here is a Northern Lights pic in Iceland. I used some ground lights on the horizon and captured the sky and my wife in near darkness. This is about 3 seconds handheld.

@Dan_Kinghorn77 Incredible timing and focus.
