photographing strangers

This is a very nice picture!

[vbs (Bojidar Bojkov)]

@martbetz

that involves just walking up to complete strangers that I find interesting and asking them for a photo. As long as they don’t ask to see the result, I should be fine.

That’s the mood - go for it! Then you will likely convince me to do the same

Last of the spring green? Already??

It seems like it’s barely started but spring appears to being already heading toward sprung where I live. At least here (central Louisiana) it’s forecast to be almost 90F for the next week or so. Maybe it’ll cool down again, but I wouldn’t be surprised… it is May, after all.

Here’s to the last of the spring greenery, before it dulls down slightly to become summer foliage. One lone green tree under the high cirrus skies ahead of coming overcast and rain.

This afternoon in our garden …

A black kite.

Today at my window board, in the sun.

Voigtländer VITOMATIC IIb. Lens Voigtländer COLOR SKOPAR 2.8/50. Don’t know any background. It’s just a nice piece of technique.

And one from outside. Dated first of May. That’s one of my favorite views over river Main and village Mainberg. Here you can see castle Mainberg. The millionaire heir and playboy Gunter Sachs was born in this castle in 1932.

My phone post-processing make the cloud look painted. So I’ll call that one “Happy Little Cloud”.

Just got off the ship from a 15-day Panama Canal transit cruise. Took plenty of pictures, but my tablet is full and I’m having to juggle USB drives to keep redundant backup. So, canal pictures will have to wait a bit. In the meantime, a Grand Cayman beach:

and a near-twilight capture from the balcony:

Managed to take this picture of a female Mallard duck with the nictitating membrane half-drawn across the eye.

[lphilpot (Len Philpot)]

Very nice light, sharpness and bokeh. The membrane is an extra!

Sunday morning ride. Steigerwald, Zabelstein.

The only camera I have been using for the past two years has been from my phone. Blurry and candid. Low-quality resize and no edits.

Those horns are more intimidating than ANY 1970’s mowhawk!
