San Juan's Final Resting Place

I’ve posted a few pictures from this cemetery in the past.  This is the Capilla del Cementerio Santa Maria in old San Juan Puerto Rico.  I’m not ready for this spot to be my home yet, but when the time comes….this might be a great location.  It has beautiful architecture, great history, a Spanish fort and an ocean view.   Wow….

Navy Yard

Today’s photo is from the Navy Yard area of Washington DC.  I took this last August, while MJ and I were there for some work meetings.  We met our friend Nick for dinner at this nice restaurant called Due South.  You can’t really see it in this photo, it’s behind the trees in the background of the pic.

10 Yard Line

Tonight’s post is a photo I took inside Ford Field prior to the Lions vs. Steelers game.  I explored the stadium for hours before they let the fans into the facility.  I had a wonderful time just taking it all in….

Focus Stacking

I’ve been playing with my macro lens recently in my yard.  I haven’t used this lens much over the years and I sort of forgot how narrow the depth of field is with it.  Which means that you can’t get the entire flower in focus, unless you use the magic of focus stacking.  So that’s what I did.  This photo is made from 7 photos focused at different spots and then I blended them together for this complete in focus photo of these flower buds.  This Focus Stacking technique creates some amazing detail.  Take a look at all the detail on the buds and the plant

2nd Yard Flower

Here is another photo from our yard.  I posted a flower photo from the yard a couple days ago.  We have a few rose bushes in our yard and therefore we have some great roses (this year) to go along with all the other flowers.   Last year (our first in this house), I trimmed them too short in the spring, thus we didn’t get any roses.  This spring, I left them alone (lesson learned).

Yard Flower

We did some work in our yard the last few weekends, including yesterday.  So today of course, we didn’t work in the yard…. We cleaned the screen porch instead.  After cleaning that area and the deck, Blair and I took some macro flower photos around the yard.  This was one of the first ones I captured.  I have no idea what type of flower this is….. so we’ll just call it Yard Flower

Machu Picchu's Back Yard

I realize this picture is basically of nothing, but I like it.  This is the backside of Machu Picchu looking down the mountain behind the back city wall.  You can see numerous Inca terraces cascading down the mountain.   Other that the terraces, its just a long long drop to the valley floor below.
