The same rules still apply.

I'll start off 2021 with some photos generated from video screen grabs from our hike earlier in the week at the Star Trek Historic File Site (Vasquez Rocks). I'm making a video of this location including scoring the soundtrack with sounds similar to the background music and sound effects but not by copying actual sounds from the episodes of from Star Trek to avoid copyright issues.

This is what I got for the Great Conjunction and the Cold Moon.

No kayaking today

ETA - 17 merged portrait exposures. 72 mb file, resaved at 25mb to get on er.org, but looks compressed

Beautiful pictures thanks for sharing them!

Here are a couple I took on a frosty morning at the ranch. Took with my phone. Lol

I finished the edit late last night of the video of our hike around the iconic Star Trek Historic Film Site. It's good to get away and get fresh air and some solitude. This is a popular location where many feature films have been shot in addition to the many generations of the Star Trek series.

WOW! That is very interesting! That was a great video and I thank you for sharing it.

Last year I submitted a few shots to a small magazine photo contest. Recently they notified me that I had won the Grand Prize and some money! This is the winner: La Salle Falls in Starved Rock State Park, Illinois.

Well, congratulations! That is a great picture.

 

[Ronstar]

Very nice Dr. Roy! I’ve been there probably 100 times and you captured it best.

 

[Ronstar]

Nice photos street! Your ranch is incredible - perfect solitude.

Thanks, Not fun out taking photos in the snow, but the snow/cold has brought back some eagles. This is a juvenile bald eagle.

A sign of the times. Costco is closing all in-store photo centers. Some services will be available online.

Beautiful pictures Ronstar.

I went out yesterday to see if the Goldens where working on the nest but couldn't find them.

 

[Ronstar]

Thanks! Great that you have some Golden nests to check on. I don’t think we have Goldens in the midwest. Some bald eagle nests, but very seldom occupied.

 

[Ronstar]

Saw this bald eagle on this morning's hike
