An image of downtown Seattle just before sunset.

     Bastards cutting down more trees by my house.

     Around the Sound Band performing September 6th, 2015 at the Ballard Locks.  The flutist at the center with the long brown hair is my wife, Tina.

     I got little in the way of good photographs of the eclipse.  But I learned some photographic lessons from my mistakes.

     1) Remember to turn the image stabilization OFF when using a tripod.

     2) Remember the moon is MOVING with respect to the Earth and so long exposures don’t produce crisp images.  Use a wider F-stop and/or higher ISO if necessary.

     And… Bring a blanket or something…  It was COLD up on that hill last night.

I took a walk and explored the King’s Garden campus while I was waiting for tires to be replaced on my car. Some really nice architecture there.

Some people in the park practicing acrobatics.

Eclipsed moon, not quite in totality just after it got dark enough to see.
