Used one a lot when I was living in Saskatchewan. Photographing birds and mammals from inside a vehicle at -30°C or colder.

Thanks Rob.

It's not been good since she had emergency surgery for a slipped disk pressing on the spinal cord nearly 3 years ago. She's never going to fully recover from the nerve damage and has to have regular medical imaging to check for issues.

I'm surprised meta hasn't morphed their logo into a swastika. I removed every meta app from every device well over a year ago.

Part of my project photographing plants with unusual lenses. In this case a very fast portrait lens wide open.

We had to drive to the city first thing for more medical imaging for Wendy so we're grocery shopping in a snow storm before heading home.

That's good news.

I can never remember if it's belt or band and have to look it up EVERY time.

The male in the rain was published in a birds calendar.

Nice belt of Venus.

Great light
