Excavator at Sunset Jacksonville, Florida


Canon 20D, Canon 100-400L IS @105mm f/5.6 1/1600

Chiaroscuro and I returned late Sunday night from a visit
to my parents in Jacksonville, Florida. We had a nice time,
and enjoyed the spring-like weather. The azaleas, which we
won't see in Baltimore for another two months, were
already blooming, and we could venture out without coats.

Late one afternoon, we visited a construction site
and some small sand dunes nearby. (The 'soil' in
Jacksonville is mostly sand.) We took quite a few shots
of the ripple patterns created by the wind. Chiaroscuro's
are better than mine, and she will probably post at least
one.

The sunset was beautiful, and I took this image of an
excavator on a small hill silhouetted against the sky.

Hey, nice shot. Chiaroscuro? Is this a competitive relationship? "I get the first shot." "No its mine, I saw it first!" "Oh real mature. Out of the way, its mine." "No, mine."

Hey look at those two over there. We should go get a picture of 'em wrastling over the best shot.

But alas, I project my own immaturity on you. I'm certain you handle it with maturity and grace.
