Day 194

Friday, July 15, 2016

Well, here are some nice fireworks photos from the Great Falls City Display, only 11 days after Independence Day!  These were all taken on my Canon M2, which is not necessarily the best fireworks camera I have decided. A Happy, if somewhat belated, Independence Day to you! ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 191

Monday, July 4, 2016

Out on the River this morning, playing around with the M2 and the 400mm telephoto.  Looks pretty funny.  Works pretty good!

Day 189

Sunday, July 3, 2016

Mrs. Mallard’s Dirty Duck(ling)s. No, I don’t know what that scum is, and I don’t want to.  This is the Missouri River.  It is probably composed of everything dumped into it upstream, including whatever three major cities contribute.  Yuck. ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>
