Nice shots Sandy, and congratulations on the award.

Great shots you guys, you've definitely have been a busy lot. Love following the photo a day series Bob.

You should be playing, LOL...Glen and I joined the forum at Cameraderie.org, and they have a lot of things going on. Also, a fairly strong mu43 section.

This challenge we are doing is their Single Lens 30 Day Challenge, which only happens every nine months.
We had to pick one lens/camera setup to use everyday for 30 days.
I am using my GX85 w/Canon FD 50mm f/1.4
And I believe Glen is using his new, (correction edit), GM-1, with a Panasonic 14mm f/2.5

Bob, its the tiny GM 1, and your old 14mm prime lens. Its turning out to be a fun little unit despite not having the tilt screen.

Of course....duh. I knew I had it wrong.

Yeah, I looked over there when you mentioned it to Glen. Looks like a pretty good bunch and have to check it out further. Thanks for that. I like the idea of the challenge. Reminds me of one we did years ago with a camera club where we would pick a spot in the bush about 50 feet square and shoot there or picked a certain city block. Committing to shooting and posting everyday for a month would not work me. Heck, half of that time we'd out in the boonies with no wifi and quite often no cell service.

Just got home from spending few days in Utah. Man, now the desert in New mexico seems really bland. Utah is gorgeous!

You guys with the mad photo skillz could really have fun there.

Oh, I think you got a pretty good handle on collecting photons yourself....

Thanks, Bob. I really wish I'd brought a real camera, but the four year old cellphone did an OK job.

If you've never been, I'd highly recommend a visit to Moab.

Moab area, one of our all time favourite places. Been there many times. Biking, motorcycling, hiking, canoeing etc.

Just got back from a week of Boy Scout Camp with my younger son, his and my last. He will age out next June. Camp Rodney in North East, MD is in its 99th year of operation. I didn’t take the good camera but still have a few pics that I think are worth sharing.

First pic is from opening night campfire. Camp Rodney has a great stage for this, the backdrop being the sun setting over the Chesapeake Bay. Tuesday night’s storm felled a tree that took out the stage and lots of benches. Lots of damage all over camp but the amazing camp staff worked hard all night so that programming could continue as normal.

Tuesday after the storm. Like it never happened.

Stage Destroyed

Great pics, captures the best of what Scout camp is about. Dad was an assistant leader of a Troop in the Early 1960's, I have a few memories of being around them.

Had something of a fun photo outing this morning.

Didnt really get anything too great, a little disappointing, but still was good in that wife and I had something of a good outing.
