Danno's Here and There With the Z6 for 2020 as They may Come

Just kind of a little different start this year. A PSA for bicyclists... I know there are some out there.

The road I live on is just a little to wide or just a bit to narrow and just a bit to nice to deter cyclist... This was a capture yesterday coming out of a blind turn going into a blind turn. It was a combination of a foolish driver and some cyclists that preferred not to ride single file. Both parties were blessed that the Boy Racer that lives on this road was not coming home at the time. To be fair it is not always bicyclists. In that little series of turns there are dump trucks coming from the River 5 or more times a day and Boy Racers in Cars and on Motorcycles, and the older person that just does not know how wide their car is... and I almost forgot the School Bus... Hmmm I might just do a bit of porch sitting and see what excitement I can catch this year.

Went down to get the mail yesterday and saw a black buzzard had laid claim to the abandoned home across the road. It was a first for me. I did not really have the right lens with me so I had to crop quite a bit, but just to ID the buzzard. I could not get much detail.

Pat and I got out a bit for her birthday today. MUCH better than last year!!! Had some fun in Lexington and on the way home I got a chance to take some photos. Our new theme song is an old Beatles song for the next year or two...;)

Just a beautiful day today. Pat and I just went out for a ride on the back roads. I was just looking for barns and such, but the Yard Birds showed up. Oh, I missed a wild turkey by THAT much today when he took off across the road in front of us.

This photo was an experiment. It is the first "Focus Shift" that I have taken with my Z6. It is 30 shots combined at 1" increments.

I shot this at f2 so each shot had this shallow depth of field. It was kind of fun to see how this process worked and it was easy. I plugged in the increments and the camera and PS did the rest.

The one thing I learned is my monitor is really in need of a cleaning and so is my coffee cup. I could also make out the text of the Bible.
