18 Dec 2024 Theme Holiday: Barbara
Barbara has been busy lately and just returned to San Diego on Dec 18th from a Mexican cruise. She was able to upload a few images from her arrival and an early day walk. They seem to fit the “Holiday” theme since she was on holiday.
20 Nov 2024 Themes Planes, Trains, Automobiles; Birds: Barbara
Barbara shared some transportation themed images and bird photos taken during a San Diego River Trail walk. She was lucky the burrowing owl was out of its burrow and just hanging out, snoozing. I’ve tried finding this owl and wasn’t lucky. Barbara uses an Om Systems micro-four thirds camera so her 50-150mm f2.8 lens is effectively a 75-300mm focal range. The advantage of using micro-four thirds cameras is they have a 2x crop – great for birds and wildlife.

Barbara participated on the Sept 17th full moon meetup at Ski Beach on Mission Bay. She shared some great shots of the moon rising over USD.

Her bee photos were added during our meeting’s discussion of Gary’s bee photos which he presented for the below eye-level theme.
