And another #superbOwl
Eastern Screech Owl. December 2025

Closeup photo of an Eastern Screech Owl sitting on a gloved human hand. Mottled brown and tan feathers, dark background. This little one is a rescue at the Northern Colorado Raptor rehab center, recovering from injuries sustained being hit by a car, a common occurrence for raptors of all sizes. Although fully recovered she cannot be returned to the wild because her injuries mean she can’t fly well enough to survive. Instead she’s an ambassador, and goes on field trips with the rescue crew when …

a red dahlia flower seen from behind, in front of a varied background mostly consisting of green foliage, with the dahlia illuminated by dappled light much more brightly than her surroundings
the same flower as in the previous image, but now seen from the front and zoomed in more closely, surrounded by her own plant's foliage
closeup of a red nasturtium flower seen in profile, with its head bowing down, in diffuse overcast daylight, in front of an out of focus background of green grass and foliage. the image focuses on the transition from the yellow center of the flower to its red petals, and the patterns of the veins on those petals

After printing a tool for respooling filament and printing a tighter closing extruder lever, I am now able to print the LAYWOO-D3 Wood Filament, famous to produce a temperature-dependent wood grain texture (github.com/MoonCactus/gcode_po

Fine tuning the Lego spectrometer more.
Using a maglite as the source eliminates the need for a separate collimating lens.
I also switched away from the very flaky variable slit made of a sliding brick that wouldn't stay in place if you looked at it wrong.
After some failed experiments with aluminum foil, I discovered that the round tree trunk Duplo brick was a tiny bit smaller than a nominal square 2x2 brick. When placed next to a square brick and locked in place with …

Overview of the new spectrometer setup: a mag lite sits in the groove between two studs with bricks on either side to keep it from rolling, then has a single stud gap before the slit for inserting the sample into

Water Lily. August 2018

Closeup photo of a water lily blossom seen at about a 45° angle. A brightly sunlit starburst of white petals (about 25-30 of them, hard to tell) surrounds the yellow pistils and stamens standing up in the center of the flower. Behind it are large dark green leaves spread out on the water. At the bottom of the frame, there are petals reflected in the dark, perfectly still water. The sunlight makes the white petals stand out starkly against the dark green leaves and darker water. The reflected pe…

#bloomScrolling #begonia #orange

closeup of a variegated orange begonia flower on a short stem, leaves removed, standing in a small dark grey glass vase on a wooden background, seen in warm artificial indoor light making the overall tone of the whole photo very warm and yellowish
a similar view as in the previous picture, but the vase has been turned, and the photo focuses on a different part of the flower
again the vase has been turned, with the main flower taking up more of the picture space now than in the previous images. it is lit brightly on the left side but the right is in shadow.

These are the photos for my 2026 calendar. Got the proofs today. Should have the hard copies in 2 weeks. Always agonizing to pick 13 of my photos for the next one. The last few years I’ve had to use older ones too. I don’t get out to shoot as much anymore. I’m hoping that will improve. I’ve volunteered to be a photographer for the city park dept. I’ll take pics of people engaged in the parks and activities, and whatever else I see.

Composite of 12 photos I’ve selected for my 2026 calendar. In order the pictures are:
January - a house finch in a tree
February - a coyote standing looking at the photographer (me)
March - sunrise over mountains
April - 3 days-old goslings in weeds
May - a catbird in a tree
June - scenic view of mountains, clouds, rain, and sunlight
July - closeup of a Mariposa Lily
August - closeup of a prickly poppy
September - head and shoulders of an elk cow
October - a blue heron taking flight
November - …
