The instructions on this blueberry pie I got from @IKEA

@petertellone No first time I visited was prob 2017. Everrtime I go keep expecting the hillsides to grow back but recovery seems very slow

[Stephen Bay @stephen_bay]

@petertellone Is that what burned all the trees near lake cutamaca?

[Stephen Bay @stephen_bay]

@rwongphoto The only photogs I know who do get the license are real estate or staff photographers.

[Stephen Bay @stephen_bay]

@rwongphoto Most landscape photogs I know don't have the 107 license. Some of them are pro / semi-pros so should have it as you state. Others are recreational but would still sell the picture if they were asked.

[Stephen Bay @stephen_bay]

@rwongphoto Yeah definitely. I also worry about rattlesnakes, have so many of them here and run into them all the time

[Stephen Bay @stephen_bay]

@rwongphoto Haven't seen one in person but they are always around here. I try t to avoid doing night photography alone

[Stephen Bay @stephen_bay]

@BenHorne But one has the high ground!

[Stephen Bay @stephen_bay]

Sorry for the vertical, took the wrong lens tonight. And I wasn't going to hike back down to get the right one. Anyway this is tonight's space-x launch viewed from the top of Cowles mt.

[Stephen Bay @stephen_bay]

@rwongphoto Is that your primary lab? Or a test?

[Stephen Bay @stephen_bay]

@petertellone I have the same problem with my p800. Not every print but enough that it's annoying. Sometimes I reverse curl the edge before printing but would rather epson just make printer with a good paper feed.

[Stephen Bay @stephen_bay]

@petertellone Hope your recovery goes well and is speedy

Fiesta Island in mission bay is teaming with flowers. Thats the Immaculata church tower on U of San Diego campus in the distance

@petertellone How's June wash right now?

[Stephen Bay @stephen_bay]

@MattPaynePhoto @shikha_shrivas I think for artists that have career ambitions it makes perfect sense, but I know quite a few photographers that just want to have fun / enjoyable hobby and working on a website is a distraction to them.

[Stephen Bay @stephen_bay]

@rwongphoto Yeah that's a problem. I hope this is temporary until they can figure something out. There has to be a solution that's somewhere in between completely closed and free-for-all

[Stephen Bay @stephen_bay]

@rwongphoto Was just thinking of making a trip there as it's pretty close to me. Hope they come up with some way to sustainably open up to visitors during blooms.
