I took this while out in Moss Landing, CA. It was making continuous sorties from this perch. It was entertaining to watch.
I have to thank Digital Art by Shari for the ID! Thank you!

Polaroid announced this week a new camera the Z340. The Z340 is a 14-megapixel digital camera with a Zink printer inside. You take a picture and the digital file is stored in the camera’s memory, as with any digital camera. But if you push the “print” button, the Zink printer spits out a four by three photograph in about 45 seconds.Read the whole thing here.
Over at the Bistro a Nikon Users Group in the flickr community you’ll find lots of talented people. One of those people whom I admire is Linda Clower. She’s not only a talented photographer, but a very creative artist too. Her creativity shines in this abstract titled
“Circles of Color” that I’ve selected to add to this week’s Gallery.

I am deeply honored to have been asked to reprise my role as the Curator of the Bistro Gallery. The Gallery is a weekly feature of the The Bistro a Nikon photography group in the flickr community. For one week I will select photographs that represent the “Best of the Bistro” taken by members of The Bistro. Like this wonderful photograph of a young Buck taken by John C. aka jc-pics

I rose pretty early this morning to make the hour drive to this location to meet my friend Andy aka Stargazer to shoot the Moonset.
He checked and double checked the webcams in the area hoping for no fog. We did have a fog bank sitting right where we hoped to shoot the setting Moon, but we got lucky; it peeked out enough to make a pretty picture, and the color! It really was this color! It was gorgeous. Worth getting up at 3AM for.
We have rain in the forecast tomorrow, but if we get a break and no fog in the morning we may try it again.
Andy has his photo up from this morning please check it out. It’s awesome!

Continuing with my study of Impressionist Photography and movement I have been using my Camellia Bush which is in full bloom at the moment as a subject. This is one of 2 dozen photographs I’ve taken in the last few days that I like. I used both defocusing and panning to achieve this look. A tip from my good friend Penny was to slow down the shutter speed. That was a big help! I also used a 50mm lens so I could get closer. I plan to stick an extension tube on and get even closer the next time I try it with flowers.
