David's Images of the Day Photoblog
I originally thought these were Stink Bugs, which also try to come indoors once the temperatures drops outside. They have similar colors, but the Western Conifer Bug is more elongated. I do wonder if the Conifer Bug is the reason many of my pine trees died, and had to be removed. Image taken with a Fuji X-T2 camera and 60 mm f/2.4 macro lens (ISO 200, 60 mm, f/2.4, 1/60 sec) with the pop-up flash.
Claude Monet oil painting in my cabin on the MV World Odyssey. Does anyone know the title? I think I have mentioned that this ship is a bit more opulent than the MV Explorer previously used by Semester at Sea. Image taken with a Leica T camera and 11-23 mm lens (ISO 320, 19 mm, f/4.2, 1/125 sec).
Panorama of the sun rising over the Pacific Ocean from the deck of the MV World Odyssey. Image taken with a Fuji X-T1 camera and 35 mm f/1.4 lens (ISO 200, 35 mm, f/16, 1/250 sec).
Radar Love — You never know who you will find on deck before 06:00. Forward deck of the MV World Odyssey. Fuji X-T1 camera and 35 mm f/1.4 lens (ISO 1600, 35 mm, f/1.4, 1/30 sec).
“If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?” A winter walk at the Sourland Mountain Preserve. Image taken with a Nikon D300 camera and 18-200 mm lens (ISO 200, 90 mm, f/5.6, 1/125 sec).
