kianta > 13Jan2009 - Day 13 Yesterday I spotted the very first California Poppy of the season and had to get down to the dirt to capture it from its own level and perspective. I would have liked to yell that 'Spring is here!' but that would be like yelling 'Fire!' in a movie theater even though there is no fire. Dang! ... that is really a bad analogy.... nevermind! *** I'll work on that for a later posting, in a meanwhile: Have a Safe and Happy Tuesday! [Posting early and going to bed.... good nite!]
kianta > 25Jan2009 - Day 25 Spending another Sunday off work, so you could say I'm on "A train to nowhere" Edit: There is a wind farm on the top of the hill - one of the many in the Altamont Pass.
kianta > 07Mar2009 - Day 66 "Anna's Hummingbird" [Calypte anna] This is the very first hummingbird that I have ever captured in close-to-perfect focus. I am not sure if I have identified it correctly, so I'll leave it to the masters to correct this observation. Took a whole bunch of photos of different animals on the same trip - here is the link http://kianta.smugmug.com/gallery/7532785_TjS9n#486483470_noRCS
kianta > 19Feb2009 - Day 50 'Rottie reflecting on the back yard activities of the sunny days long past' That sums up the recent rain-soaked days - we haven't been able to get out to 'mingle' with the backyard critters. Update: This is Elli holding still (even if she needed a little aiding) ... perhaps you can see the knuckles of the hand on the lower right in the reflection against the lighter colored backyard - I was helping her hold her muzzle still for the shot. :D Camera was on a tripod.
kianta > 16Mar2009 - Day 75 'Nectarine Flowers' Thank you very much for all of your comments on the photo yesterday!
kianta > 13Mar2009 - Day 72 "Sittin' on the dock of the Bay" Update: This seagull was sitting on the dock near the Ferry Building in San Francisco when I 'captured' it. In the background you can see lights from Alameda below the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge. I have darkened the photo just a bit so that the color of the sky is more vibrant.
kianta > 21Mar2009 - Day 80 'Morning over San Francisco Bay' On the left is Yerba Buena Island with San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge connecting it to San Francisco.
kianta > 22Mar2009 - Day 81 'House Finch' [Carpodacus mexicanus] I've been trying to capture this little bird for a while and finally today my luck changed for the better.
kianta > 25Mar2009 - Day 84 'Fort Snelling National Cemetery' Even the sky was crying on this day over these hallowed grounds http://www.cem.va.gov/cems/nchp/ftsnelling.asp
