After climbing up Soroti rock, we made our way back down and around the base clockwise (I'm not sure which direction it was) and there were a bunch of goats rock hoppin'. There was a storm brewing so it was a little dark and a lot of my handheld shots were blurry (at 1/40. Who did I think I was?)

Happy Friday. Eat something you don't normally. You know? Like goats do!

Sometimes I laugh at how ridiculous a child is at having their photograph taken. I think I have everything set and then their face looks like it's in a wind tunnel. Children in Uganda are no different.

In the first frame, how unfortunate it is that the baby's hands are blocking its face. In the second, what's up with your eye little girl? Oh well. Together you get enough of an idea to enjoy it.

What makes the eyes so captivating isn't done by any editing on my part. We were in shade up against a hut when these were taken. With me occupying the center of the reflection, that leaves two large catchlights on either side of my silhouette. Look it up in the original file.

...We Come To Rest.

This is a star trail I took this past weekend up north along the Pine River. Some clouds started rolling in at the bottom of the frame towards the end of the exposures which, I think, adds some to the composite.

Here, here, and here are some other recent ones in case you missed them. Oh, and set this as your background!

Sometimes I like minimalism.

While I was taking a short photography-focused walk this past weekend along the Pine River, I came to this bridge (The Hoxeyville High Bridge) looked up, and saw a desktop wallpaper for those engineering times when I just want to have something heavily constructed on my computer.

It's all about the diagonals here.

I like that pointer in the background :).
