Random Photo thread

Did he give out the Barker bark? I have watched almost every video from that Dre Designs person and she loves to capture that
Yah, That DRE Design is quite a ship watcher. Lives on a channel, and has gotten to know some captains and crew members. And travels around to Soo Locks and other places to greet the ships.
Yah, THe Barker Bark (as some ship watchers call it) is remarkable for how loud and how low of a tone the horn is. That is from the James R Barker (1976, 1004ft). SOmewhere I saw the horn is acatually two horns
The Best and Loudest Boat Horn on the Great Lakes - James R Barker #shorts - YouTube.
I have not expereinced it.
My pic is of the Kaye E Barker (1952, 766ft) comming into GRand Haven here.
And that is about as large of a ship that can make it thru the turns in the river channel here.
ANd there is a third Barker ship, Mark W Barker (2022, 639ft).

Maybe more for "random photo".....
Had a great time at grandson 3yo birthday party.
At first he was shy about everybody looking at him while we all were singing Happy Birthday.
I noticed that I could step behind him and get a shot to document everyone there (and they all looking that direction), so I did.
But later, looking at the other g'mas vidio, I see that his reaction to it all was quite significant.
At first he was quite shy, but then he was looking at individual persons, and look at the cake, and then look at more of each individual person. He made so many happy expressions.
I found it quite moving to see him so happy.
I took snagged screen shots from gma vidio and added them around my shot. Purposly Made the happy-face-screen-shots the attention point, and my photo just for supplemetary documentation.
My cut-n-paste (just PaintDotNet) is kinda crude (I know, I should learn more about the Affinity package I have.) but I really like this composite for the remeberance and the significance of the event.
On a minor note: Some of you may recgonize Jay RedmanSIL on far left, and Justin RedmanSon on far right.

For my prior corporate sins, I now work in the community recycling/reuse sector in NZ. One of the sites rents space and gifts materials to upcyclers, repairers and artists. This the work of one of the artists.

Steampunk meets Harley? What ever they are i like both of them .
image by Scott Marvin, on Flickr Taken less than 2 miles from home this afternoon. First Pair I have seen outside the Land Between the Lakes.
Went again this afternoon and they were back. Same tree.
Might be on a recon mission for a nest site. Or food (most likely) There is a nest about 2 miles from my house and the pair had a duck lunch in my back yard.
That's pretty cool. We frequently have eagles and falcons nesting in skyscrapers in Manhattan. They usually pick ritzy fifth avenue locales, then the tenants argue with each other over destroying the nests. I guess they're worried about the pigeon population? :-k

Out early enough that catwalk lights still on, and beacon lights still flashing (takes some effort to catch both on at same time).
Two pics this morning.
Less than a minute apart, and maybe 5 steps apart.
32degF, quite windy, sleet-snow.
It was a short walk this morning.

Nice scene. Sunrize color in the west!
I noticed some of that (but much less) yesterday here.
.... Been busy, but stingy with sharing. I'm broke AF and am approaching my free space limit on Flickr. Time to check out alternates.

Some 15yo juvenile delinquent getting a autograph from non other than Rodger DeCoster.
This was at the 1980 Trans-Am Motocross race at Mid-Ohio.
