Picture-A-Week 2024 - Week 30


Recommended Posts

Pictures taken between Monday, July 22 and Sunday, July 28.

 

Things change quickly!

 

Best grab some photos of as is before it becomes as was.

 

And, of course, share them here.

 

 

Rules: See above

That's it. This isn't a contest.

All photos taken this week are welcome (not just cruising).

Prizes will not be awarded. Discovering the joy of photography is the prize.

The idea is to get folks out using their cameras for more than vacations and toddler birthdays.

Post one. Post many. Up to you.

Have fun with your camera and share your fun with others!

A trip to the Butterfly House. It feels great in this very warm, climate controlled environment in the winter. Not so comfortable when it's 90 degrees outside. Not sure how hot it is inside the dome.untitled-10001925.thumb.jpg.3f225e58848d02a6ffe1ae189212af24.jpg

I bought an a6700 with the 70-350 zoom last week and have been practicing with shots around the house.  Yesterday we took a road trip to the Oregon Sea Lion Caves.

From Friday through Sunday, we left summer behind and sat in an artificial winter watching the ISI World Ice Skating Championships in San Jose, CA. I got the impression that anyone could sign up, pay the fee and compete, so it was more of a structured competition with many levels and competitors from as far away as Indonesia. Jackie was entered in four events including two individual and two group competitions. Again, I will mention that at her level, there is no set age range. She just turned 8 and regularly competes against skaters 4-7 years older. This trip netted her a 1st place, a 2nd place and two 3rd place medals. This week's photo was from her 2nd place finish against seven 11–13-year-olds. She continues to amaze me.
