On the way to Mt P, the skyview sign you can only get tickets by going on line.
Don't think me n Kookie wanna go back, last time we went over to the side where she pooped and two security guys in a golf cart had to shin their lights so we could find it :(


Forgot the leash so I drove to the back so Kookie could do her thing.

Took a bunch of these guys from the parking lot. Hope some of their fb pals see it n tell em so they can copy it #risingpark


Hanging out with a pal #risingpark



Saw these guys gazing over our turf #risingpark




These guys were at the far end and I can't drive over there now #risingpark



Not sure what this guy was doing with the tripod #risingpark



Paw sanitize station #risingpark



Leaving for home pic at the stop light #risingpark



I like to capture a lighting bug each summer. Haven't been able to catch one this summer but after taking pics at the fairground, loading the Jeep there was one on the winshield.
Riding along at 20 mph he hung on then I got the idea to get a pic of em ok Kookie's nose.. just as I was doing it, one big slurp and he vanished.. n Kookie didn't like the taste #risingpark



Coming up the hill on the way home .. giggity gig #risingpark

Slept about all day, must have been bit by a tsetse fly 
My summer begins when I spot my first lighting but.. got up to take Kookie out and the yard was full of em.. too far to catch one yet but..
Things to do fight the weeds, open presents, admire the girls, gaze over our home turf from Mt P after dark... maybe find a group doing car washes.
I did take a few pics and plotted the sun for a shoot.
My time is  spent... made it.

Capturing a sunrise
Look at the weather forecast for a morning with out lots of clouds.
Find the degrees the sun will come up at sunrise
Add 180 to that number
Go to the top of Mt P and look that direction
Any roof top or place on the ground you can see.. from that point you can see Mt P
More complicated than that but I glued this compass to a fitting that goes over the hot shoe.

To capture the clouds floating over Mt. P, we loaded up the Kookie mobile n set up on the far end of the fairground. Put on the time lapse gadget and took a pic every minute.
It was kind of overcast n didn't work great.
If I get froggy again, we need to come back with blue skies, big puffy clouds and take a pic every 30 secs, maybe use manual settings
#risingpark



Guess I will have to make another stab at capturing the clouds float over Mt. P.
Overcast last time and I need to change the settings to a pic every 30 secs
Lost the lens hood on top last time. If someone finds it they wont know what it is for.
I made it to 2020 .. so

I planned capturing the clouds floating over Mt P for a long time but the conditions too much cloud.
Running out of spunk don't know if I will go back but if you live in Lancaster, I drove to the far side of the fairgrounds and set the camera to take a photo every minute and pasted them together in a time lapse.
The perfect condition Lots of blue sky peppered in big puffy white clouds.


I was standing to the far end of the fairgrounds close to the fence just using a normal lens

This is what I captured

They keep putting stuff in the parking areas to clutter the view but didn't take too much attention

Overcast the whole sky so things did not come out as planned, but took a pic of the barrel riders from Mt. P.
.. picking out the two furthest away.. imagination a guy n his kid visiting thinking about becoming one of em.. making up stuff to fit pics :)

Didn't exercise today had to do a grocery swap so I put the stickers on my license plates, tried to fix a weed trimmer n thought I would practice with the time lapse.
Moved the Jeep into solid shade and shot through the weeds.
I put the timer on delay 15 secs, then take 7 pics with 5 sec delays, then worked on it in pshop a bit.
Gave myself a haircut a couple weeks ago :)
Kookie romping to go so I took her to the park, wished I took the camera.. but I did take a pic of a family with their camera.

Just wanted to make it till this year n have a few more clips I wanna create.
Saw a fb pal n her pup and a guy who has a pup friendly to Kookie..

Me n the pup waiting to catch n release our first lighting bug. But this year we won't let em gang up on us :)
Happy thoughts
