I'm lovin' the birds... Juncos are cuties and that first one is I think
the sweetest one of the lot but but then I saw the stellar STellar's
Jay shots..
LIke all four but the particularly like that first one on the fence post.

A few days back I saw 9 juncos in my side yard, where I scatter seed. A couple
of them let me get within 10 feet of them and I was able to get some decent
shots.

A few years ago Michael Gaither did a show with my friend Michelle and really
liked some of the photos I got of him. He asked me to photograph him at an
outdoor socially distanced show at a local winery last Friday. The one
downside was that I didn’t have a designated driver so I couldn’t really
capitalize on the very nice wine that was available.
There was a bougainvillea off to the side of the stage that ended up making a
very nice backdrop:

Every venue has a few interesting pitfalls that are an opportunity for
education. This one was lit by strings of lights, LEDs that it turns out
flicker pretty strongly at, I’d guess 120 Hz. If you get the shutter speed
wrong, bands of light and dark. If you use auto exposure, and it reads the
exposure at the wrong part of the cycle, the whole thing is way over or way
under exposed. If I go back, I’ll definitely bring some of my stage lights.
He had Lauren Wahl come along to do a short set with her band, and she joined
him on stage for quite a few songs. In addition to having a wonderful voice,
she’s one of those people who seems to get along real well with cameras.

If you’re interested in Americana music, do check them out. I really like his
song Starlight Drive In Saturday night

I even played a bit with video on my K-1 with the 43 ltd, here is a couple
minutes Micheal, his friend Adam, and Lauren doing a cover of Wagon Wheel:
