Paris. April 2025. This was an accident. I intended to shot the building behind the couple but sneezed and hit the shutter release. Straightened and cropped in post. Taken with the #nikonz8 and the 24-70 2.8/S. #photography #streeetphotography #paris #france #travelphotography #nikonshooter #photo

Travel day. See y'all tomorrow.

Just can't put that phone down. Show with the #nikonz8 and the 24-70 2.8/S. #photography #travelphotography#plazamayor #madrid #spain #espana

Still lifes are notin my wheelhouse but sometimes an opportunity just pops up in front of you. I could have improved this. Shot with a #nikonz8 and the 24-70 2.8/s. #photography #travelphotography #stilllife

Men At Work, Stucco Department. He is applying a fresh coat of traditional, native American stucco at Taos Pueblo. Note the straw colored flecks of, well, straw. Shot with a #nikonz8 and the 24-70 2.8/S. #photography #taos #taospueblo #menatwork #nikonshooter #travelphotography #blueskyphotography

Great Sand Dunes National Park. Yeah. I get around. Those are the Sangre de Cristo mountains, a subrange of the Rockies. Shot with a #nikonz8 and 24-7- 2.8/S. #photography #blueskyphotography #landscapephotography #nationalparks #greatsanddunes #travelphotography #nikonshooter #mountain

Holding hands. Shot with a Nikon Z7 and the 24-70 2.8/S. #photography #blueskyphotography #couples #streetphotography #travelphotography #nikonz7 #nikonshooter #granada #spain #espana #granada

Granada street. There are about 200 people behind me and here are two lonely figures. Shot with a Nikon Z7 and the 24-70 2.8/S. #photography #blueskyphotography #granada #spain #espana #streetphotography #nikonshooter #nikonz7 #nikonphotography #travelphotography

Just a peaceful sunrise. #photgraphy #sunrise #beachphotography #majorica #spain #espana #nikonshooter #nikonz7

One of the things I enjoyed most about Spain was the outdoor spaces. Great places for #streetphotoghraphy. I was sitting down enjoying an ice cream when this guy came across the square. Shot with a Nikon Z7 and the 24-70 2.8/S. #photography #granada #alhambra #spain #espana #nikonshooter #nikonz7

A Segway tour is something I had not seen before or since. The lady with the red shirt was the guide. Near Iglesia de San Jerónimo el Real.Shot with a Nikon Z7 and my favorite lens, the 24-70 2.8/S. #photography #streetphotography #madrid #spain #espana #travelphotography #nikonshooter #nikonz7

Perusing the layout. The Museo Nacional Del Prado in Madrid has 102 rooms! It's a good idea to make sure you know what you want to see. Shot with a Nikon Z7 and the 24-200. #photography #streetphotography #travelphotography #nikonshooter #museodelprado #spain #madrid #nikonz7 #espana

This beautiful old truck was at the same car show as the MG. It was debadged and the owner wasn't around so your guess is as good as mine. Yes, I know he was advertising a business. #photography #carphotography #classictruck #classiccar #carshow #nikonz8 #nikonshooter

A little British action. That bird on the fender is a reflection of the car next to it. Should I have removed it? #photography #carphotography #classiccars #vintagemg #mg #britishautomobile #automotivephotography #nikonshooter #nikonz8

Hot green. Spotted at a local car show. He didn't win anything but I liked it. It wouldn't be much of a hobby if we all liked the same thing. #photography #autophotography #carphotography #classiccar #carshow #nikonshooter #nikonz8

A Ford Model 'A'. I believe it's a 27 but I'm not an expert and the owner wasn't around. Beautiful car though. Shot with a Nikon Z8 and the 24-70 2.8/S plus a Kase CPL. #photography #carphotography #autophotography #ford #classiccar #classicford #fordmodela #modela #nikonshooter #nikonz8

How about a 57 T-Bird? It belongs to a buddy and this is its debut. #photography #carphotograhy #autophotography #classcars #classicford #thunderbird #57thunderbird #classicthunderbird #nikonshooter #nikonz8

Small town USA. This is the Juvenile Shoe Corporation building in Carthage, MO. Built in 1914 it has had several occupants, the current being a boutique shop. #photography #streetphotography #oldbuildings #nikonz8 #nikonshooter #carthagemo #carthagemissouri #ozarks

What's behind that sign? Oh crap! Caught again! Carthage, Missouri. That's a 1948 Ford Super Deluxe. Shot with a Nikon Z8 and my favorite 24-70 2.8/S. #carthage #missouri #carthagemo #missouriozarks #ozarks #classiccars #police #nikonshooter #nikonz8 #classicford #forddeluxe

Scammers have made it over to Bluesky now. I've already been hit on twice (No, I didn't fall for it). Once it starts it will snowball. Beware.

I've been pretty busy and now I got a jury duty summons for this week. It doesn't suck. I consider it to be one of the duties a good citizen has to do, but this is the seventh time I've been called. When is it someone else's turn?

Inside the Chihuly Garden and Glass. The amount of detail and work that went into these is staggering. Shot with a Nikon Z8 and the 24-70 2.8/S. #photography #photo #nikonshooter #nikonz8 #chihuly #chihulygardenandglass #Seattle #art #artphotography #travelphotography

The spaghetti monster? Nope. A Dale Chihuly work. The Chihuly Garden and Museum is a spot you need to see. Shot with a Nikon Z8 and the 24-70 2.8/S. #photography #artphotography #chihuly #chihulymuseumandgarden #seattle #art #nikonshooter #nikonz8

A twofer. An unusual shaped building and a reflection. Downtown Seattle. Shot with a Nikon Z8 and the 24-70 2.8/S. #photography #streetphotography #architecturalphotography #seattle #nikonshooter #nikonz8

Is it a barn quilt? Looks like one but that isn't a barn. An older building, sure, but not a barn. Then again a barn quilt is not a quilt. Shot with a Nikon Z8 and the 24-70 2.8/S. #photography #architecturephotography #architecture #nikonshooter #mountainview #arkansas #ozarks

A final busker. Until my next trip. Which is soon. A piano busker. How does he carry that thing around? Shot with a Nikon Z8 and the 85mm/1.8S. #photography #busker #busking #seattle #pikeplacemarket #streetphotography

ANOTHER busker busking. Not many fiddlers out there. But wait for the next one. Shot with a Nikon Z8 and the 85MM/1.8S. #photography #streetphotography #busker #busking #seattle #nikonshooter

Sealife. By Dale Chihuly. It was built in place. It took three months to makes all the pieces and another month to assemble. An amazing piece of art and just about impossible to photograph in a very dark room. #photography #art #chihuly #glass #sculpture

Man At Work. Mailman at work. I didn't see that little girl giving me the stink eye. Shot with a Ricoh GRiii Street version. #photography #menatwork #streetphotography #seattle

Another busker busking. Because busking is what buskers do. Do buskers count as a Men At Work? Still with the Nikon Z8 and the 85mm/1.8S. #photography #streetphotography #busker #busking #seattle #nikonshooter #nikonz8
