Great shot.

Feel free to send some of that snow our way! There is much need here in our area of Utah.

Thanks. I've been meaning to get back there and try again now that I have some new ideas on how to use the drone better when there is valley fog is available.

I took my niece out with me on a cold Sep 2020 morning to get some #drone #video and #photography footage at the rest area on Highway #26 near Idaho Falls #Idaho. Below the cliffs is the Snake River, and we got lucky to have some morning fog to fly over.

Day 72 of #365PhotoADay pt 2 - #ScapeFriday

It had rained a good amount the night before our hike through Park Avenue in Arches National Park #Utah, so there were plenty of #reflections in water photo ops to enjoy.

Thank you! I just wish I had follow my instincts when I looked outside an hour before sunset and thought about finding a good body of water in the area to sit at and see if the sunset would develop.

Though with these spiking gas prices we may be camping very close to home.

Same here in Utah. This summer is going to be a tinderbox. I'm sure a lot of our camping trips will be sans firewood and campfires.

Day 72 of #365PhotoADay - #ScapeFriday

Last night's #sunset was a fiery light show! I didn't have time to get the drone in the air, but the #smartphone capture still delivers.

From a trip last year through the Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge #Utah, a capture of a #yellow headed black #bird.

Same. Was surprised that he wasn't hibernating as we still get below freezing at night.

You never know what you'll get for photo opportunities at the local State or County Fair, am I right?

We are already 50 cents higher here. Need to remind all his deplorables that they voted for this.

Making me want to go fly my drone! If only we weren't having 20mph gusts today.

I found one of his feathers in the greenhouse yesterday. Wish he would shed one of those super long tail feathers for me to photograph!

My #pheasant buddy is back again! And its totally because he enjoys our company and not because someone is leaving canned corn in the greenhouse...

They made me sit through the entire garbage bag documentary in order to write a review, so I just kept hitting fast forward until the end.

While it did let me write a review, they aren't letting anyone see what score the film has or what reviews have already been written (of course).

No worries, understandable. There are times when you'll never get that clean no people shot (like in Arches NP and trying to get that shot of Delicate Arch) and you work with what your given.

Day 69 of #365PhotoADay - Happy #RockinTuesday!

Before my mom passed away, I had taken the time to photograph the many rocks in her #rock hound collection. This is a #gemstone called Rhodocrosite and her piece came from Brazil.

Nicely captured!

I don't have that kind of patience and would have taken 4 to 8 shots to use in editing and layer in the image parts needed to remove people.

I will, however, take the time to give it a review...

Though, it looks like the hashtag #wck is used a lot for the charity organization World Central Kitchen (WCK). Think I'll keep typing out WestCoastKin.

They use a horrible compression code here. Anything that has lots of camera movement or action in the video results in horrible artifacts.

It is better to upload to YouTube and then post your YouTube video here. Better image quality without the file size and length restrictions.
