I couldn’t decide between the two, so I’m posting both. I’m just a fan of the low-contrast ’70s-style look right now.

Fluid Dynamics & Art (6/365)
Tuesday, January 6, 2026
Stripped of color, wing, and fuselage, the wingtip becomes pure geometry. Every curve exists for a reason, yet, in black and white, to this photographer’s eye, the engineering reads as sculpture first, performance second.
Some technical info just because:
Typical numbers:
- Induced drag reduction: ~ 4–6%
- Fuel burn reduction: ~ 1.5–2.5% on average missions
- Range increase: ~ 100–200 NM
- Climb performance: Improved, especially hot-and-high
Key aerodynamic goals:
- Slow down the spanwise flow of air toward the tip
- Weaken the vortex
- Spread pressure recovery over distance instead of dumping it all at the tip

Daisy Girl Taking Point and Leading the Pack (2/365)
Off to work tomorrow so wanted to get as much hiking in as possible.
Welcome to 2026 (1/365)
Started the new year off right with a early morning hike. The sun rays coming through the clouds was most excellent. iPhone shot and processed.
2025 was my first year doing a 365 blog. It took a while to get into the swing; I missed 63 days. It has been a lot of fun, and I’m energized to start 2026 with new photography habits and flows to have a better year and reduce that missed-day count.
Take more pictures!
