Road Life (279/365)
The older I get, the more I loathe hotel gyms. Glad I got them, but ugh, they can be depressing. Sometimes there just isn’t a good place to walk or hike. Come to think of it, I need to start packing a jump rope.

Life Within The Rocks (278/365)
Quick desert walk today and found these flowers among the rocks.
In The Glass (277/365)
Sometimes you get happy accidents.
Moon Shot (276/365)
Well, we’re back on the moon. After that afternoon’s handheld shot of the moon, I wanted to do more. Got the tripod out last night for this night shot. 400mm lens, 1.25x TC, MFT OM-1.

Sun Kissed (274/365)
Here is the same shot in color.
Which do you prefer?
Blue Moon (273/365)
Just for an experiment, I put a 300mm lens on my Olympus OM-1 with a 1.4x teleconverter, walked outside, and hand-held a shot of the moon. Just crazy how well it turned out. The stabilization inside these cameras never ceases to amaze me.
A 300mm lens with a 1.4x converter is 420mm. On the Micro Four Thirds camera, the crop factor is 2x, so the 35mm-equivalent field of view is 840mm.
Silent Sunday (271/365)
Shot 20+ photos today with the iPhone and my Olympus, looking for todayβs daily photo.
Itβs funny, some shots you know will be alright, some shots you think will be great are just, meh. Others have hope, or you wouldnβt have even taken it, but they turn out fantastic. Today was like that. I didnβt have that much hope for this shot, but after processing, it turned out really nice.
Shot and processed entirely in the iPhone.
