Excited to see exactly how the Democrats caused this shut down.

Potential 2025 Shutdown:

• Senate Majority: GOP✔️
• House Majority: GOP✔️

2018-2019 Shutdown:
• White House: Donald Trump✔️
• Senate Majority: GOP✔️
• House Majority: GOP✔️

Well, that was fun while it lasted. #laidoff

Tragic news about the artist Starcadian. Rest in space.

A great blue heron soaring in the sky with wings up and spread.

Managed to get out for some birding on Saturday. The Lake Renwick Preserve has changed in the last few years. Cormorants are taking over and now outnumber the Herons and Egrets, probably 8 to 1. Still nice to see a few birds up close. #canonphotography #birding #heron #rf200800

Just incredible

No crop, still can’t believe I caught this one. Loving the RF200-800.

Vintage Leica lens on a Canon R5. Love it. This is my dog Monte.

Arlington Cemetery website scrubs links about Black and female veterans — The Washington Post Pentagon leaders have ordered that their websites and social media pages remove articles and images that “promote” DEI.

This is disgraceful

I'm devastated.

Just got a new 16" MacBook Pro M4. Impressed. So far have only used it for photo editing. Never heard the CPU fan on my M1 MacBook Pro so this was a big surprise when I heard this one. I'm re-organizing an out of control 5TB photo library with LR so this not normal use but I'm slightly concerned.

He flies. #mydogmonte

We thoroughly enjoyed it. Be prepared to buy a Helios lens after watching. ;)

Honest. Decent. Principled. A Lifetime of Selfless Service.

Just when things couldn’t get worse.

On foggy days like today in Chicago, the view above the low-lying fog can be magical. Fog is not unusual in December. Here it is again but on this day back in 2018. It felt like another world above the city for this Monday Moment.

Go Navy.

LED bulbs. I want something with good color that is dimmable and feels like an incandescent. What is your favorite brand?

Made in America.

The dialog isolation feature of Davinci Resolve is better than any of the dedicated audio tools I tried. Absolutely incredible results. #davinciresolve #audioediting
