Day 48

Thursday, February 17, 2022

The Dailywife saw that the hummingbird that has buzzed me occasionally is making a nest in the tree between our trailer and Robyn and Walters.  This is an Anna’s Hummingbird. You can see her tongue arcing out of the end of her beak. ~Curtis in /-\riZona! {!-{>

Day 45

Wednesday, February 16, 2022

We went back up to Sedona the next morning to see the sunrise light on the red rocks.  Still cloudy over Sedona, but clear west.  Here is the Moon setting in a one photo panorama. When I was sending Walter a copy of this, Messenger had it compressed sideways while uploading.  I though that was […]

Day 42

Wednesday, February 16, 2022

Walter and I went up to Sedona to find a spot with the full Moon coming over the red rocks in the sunlight.  It clouded up and was a no-go.  I got this nice five photo panorama though! ~Curtis in /-\riZona! {!-{>

Bonus! Day 347, 2010!

Wednesday, February 16, 2022

Day 347, 2010… Coming home on Tuesday presented me with an interesting atmospheric phenomenon:  Anticrepuscular Rays.  The beams of sunlight you see during a sunset (and sunrise, too, I presume) are Crepuscular Rays.  Anticrepuscular rays are the same sunbeams of light, on the opposite side of the horizon from the sunset.  Despite the apparent fanning effect, […]

Day 41

Saturday, February 12, 2022

Running a view days behind… I decided to try my hand at a Moon photo with the new camera and my best lens, the Canon 400mm f5.6 L.  It is a bit strange down here in Arizona: we are in a “Dark Skies” area and there are few street lights, and you can see the […]

Day 40

Saturday, February 12, 2022

Running a couple days behind… The Dailylife Grandpa has the ‘Rona!  He thinks he might have got it from his Mrs…she was sick, then he got sick, and after about a week of coughing, feeling bad and being weak, he spent the day at the Hospital and after 8 hours of tests they decided he […]
