I’ve not been out taking pictures, so here’s another cormorant from the sequence I shot a few days ago.

oh waauw! How many shots do you have to take before having one like this? (that is: with such wings and its eyes open and perfect composition)

I remember the debate around the beer bar. Do you use digital? Do you think it will ever replace film?

This would have been in Santa Monica, CA in the late 1990s.

I used to print photos, back when I was a bachelor. Stayed in the dark room for hours. Loved sharing that space with others. So loaded with potential energy.

Nowadays the only photography I do is taking iPhone shots of the San Gabriels during the morning and afternoon drives.

We still have wine.

Might that beautiful cormorant ever “look back” and feel nostalgia for this moment?

What a way to live.
