… and Lenny Bruce is not afraid.
Now that I have that earworm firmly established, let’s get to the pics.
A few days back we got a ton of water dumped on us here in central NC, like most of the country I believe, right after temperatures had gotten above 25°c, then dropped precipitously (sorry) during and after the rains. Yesterday, with the sun out and the temperature

It’s a little disturbing to discover that this was taken four-and-a-half years ago, since I wouldn’t have said that much time had passed, but here we are. This came from a inadvertently brief trip to Jekyll Island, Georgia we’d planned to be down there for a week, hopefully catch a sea
Boy, this took too damn long…
I’ve had the video clips for several days now, and largely edited together for over a day. It took a lot longer than anticipated to get the voiceover done, but the real delay was in the rendering. The first version seemed a little large to me and I’d prefer to upload leaner, less space-consuming videos if I can, but Kdenlive just couldn’t handle
Been a little busy this week, without much time to even consider the blog, but that will change shortly – I have some video clips of cool stuff to edit together, and when I say they’re cool stuff, well, you’ve been warned…
Meanwhile, storms rolled in last night and the lightning tracker began going off, so I set up to see what would happen, which unfortunately wasn’t
Once again, something that I noticed while doing the sorting of images from the initial unloading folders into the proper categories of stock (or, as it may be, simply deleting them as not being worthwhile – shocking as it may seem, it happens every once in a great while.) While checking the images from this past

For a couple of months in 2001 I lived in Spring, Texas, a suburb of Houston, though while there, I did almost no photography. This is one of the few exceptions, the first wild gecko I’d seen, much less photographed, but I was cheating: I’d captured it almost as soon as I spotted it, knowing
Today, March 31st 2023, is the 100th anniversary of the untimely death of one of the first serious wildlife photographers, Jamfer von Schnocklefausen, a true pioneer in the field. Schnocklefausen was trained to be a goat polisher, but as photography was becoming more popular in the late 1800s, he soon gravitated to the field because, as he succinctly put it, “Ziegen sind Arschlöcher.”
Yes, another month is kaput, and that means a photo dedicated solely to this, because it’s a tradition on the blog now and we all know how important such things are. That’s right, not at all even slightly a little bit. But we’re still gonna do it, as if extra-terrestrials aren’t watching us and shaking their cephalothoraxes.
Yeah, we’ve had similar before,
Finally getting around to posting the pics from Skyfest NC this past Saturday, part of the delay being, there really wasn’t a lot to see for this one, which I made worse by leaving early (there was, at least, a helicopter rappelling demo that was scheduled.) Pictured above and below are four members of the Full
I’ve mentioned before, perhaps too many times, about getting involved in 3D printing, but it’s served to keep me busy during the lean winter months, and I’m slowly picking up some design skills. I’ve joined a few online repositories for such things and have uploaded a handful of designs, such
