    Today was a very fun day starting at the airport restaurant for ice tea (coffee machine was broken) with Rich and Brian before they headed out for Fresno. Got a couple hundred photos of them taking off and doing a low pass down the runway and they turned out well. Then a little work on my ship and home for some photo work and outing with One. Back to the airport at 2P for a photo shoot of an incredibly beautiful Beech Baron … another 350 shots. Didn’t realize it, but One hitched a ride up to the airport with me and when we were all congratulating ourselves on a job well done she snuck into the Baron, closed it up, cranked the engines and headed down the runway before we realized what had happened.

    I did get a shot of her though and as busy as she was with takeoff, she did glance over at me before she rotated … haven’t heard from her yet so no idea where she went … if you see her fueling up somewhere please let her know that there is some great salmon waiting for her if she comes back … and I’ll be off the hook for a very expensive remodeled twin!!! She seemed to heading towards Las Vegas, Nevada.

    A photo tip for you if you find yourself shooting prop planes … keep the shutter speed low, usually anything under 1/320th of a second works well as blurred propellers look better than props stopped by high shutter speeds.

    After the shoot this afternoon I stopped at Basha’s to pick up a few things … couldn’t resist getting two apple fritters, but when I got home I discovered they hadn’t packed them. So what to do? $3.00 worth of gas to retrieve $1.50 worth of fritters … it was 6P by the time I got back there … they couldn’t find the apple fritters, but late in the day they mark stuff down so I got six fritters for another 50 cents, huge smiles … not only that, but the late hour was an excuse to stop at Wildflower bakery and pick up a Reuben sandwich and a large sugar free vanilla latte … think they only put two shots of espresso in them, but I had already had 10 shots in the morning.  

    Been fun working on photos tonight listening to Neil Sedaka and Phil Collins … brings back a lot of good memories and they made good music.

    Wrapping a little early as I have a lot of images to go through and process later today … airplane stuff though so it will be fun.

    Have a beautiful day … keep breathing and enjoying each moment you live … your family and friends will appreciate that.

    Cheers

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
