For a TL cleanse, this Oceania Cruises MS Marina ship that passed by the house tonight at sunset is a boutique luxury ship with a weight and passenger load roughly a third of a typical large cruise ship – but still impressive! Tap for full size. I hope you have had a great day!

Happy Tuesday! Today's sunrise was basic but pretty as seen here. I used the Styles tool in my iPhone 18 to control the saturation when shooting to prevent detail blowout which was always a challenge with my iPhone 15. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

My music shuffle just went from The Last Trip to Tulsa by Neil Young to Rocky Raccoon by The Beatles (below) and it was a perfect transition, taking me right back to my days as a Progressive Radio DJ where our choice of song sequencing was as important as our voice and delivery.

Happy Monday! It's a new week! We had overcast skies this morning so here's another shot from yesterday's sunrise after the sun had broken through the horizon. Tap for full size, particularly since it's a vertical. I hope you have a great day!

Among other cool things about being in Lambertville, NJ yesterday is that it was their annual Porchfest when anyone could set up a free concert on their porch, driveway or lawn. There were 18 registered, and here's a sampling from one of them. Tap + horizontal for full screen.

For a timeline cleanse, I used Apple's macro and focus tracking feature on the iPhone 18 to allow the camera to keep this bumblebee close and sharp as it executed its pollination duties on this dahlia flower. Tap for full size. I hope you are having a great day!

Happy Sunday! We had a full cloud layer today with several opening slivers so I was very optimistic for some pre-sunrise backlighting – and sure enough it delivered, filling the entire iPhone 18 1X camera frame. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

For a timeline cleanse, I used the Styles tool in the iPhone 18 photo app to goose the saturation to bring in detail of these wildflowers at Solebury Orchards in New Hope today to make the picture look almost like a painting. Tap for full size. I hope you have had a great day!

I was horrified this morning when I went to my favorite coffee joint in Lambertville NJ, Bucks on Bridge, only to find the that it had closed its doors after 17 years. Happily right nearby were both Lambertville Trading Company (L) and Union Coffee (R) to fill the void.

Happy Saturday! It's the weekend! We had total opacity over the sun itself this morning, but still managed some pretty nice spill of cloud patterns and colors to the south. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

For a timeline cleanse, here's a quick shot of a dune on the beach this afternoon. It's no award winner, but we had westerly winds so I was battling sandflies who were out for one of their final kills of the season 😄. Tap for full size. I hope you have had a great day!

Happy Friday! We made it through the week! I overslept today, so the sun was already up as I was getting to the bridge. So I abandoned that idea and instead grabbed this from downtown on the bay side. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

For another timeline cleanse, the summer crowds are definitely gone, but it's nice to still see in some enjoyable outdoor eating, libations, and fellowship at the tiki bar at Bahrs Landing. Tap for full size. I hope you have had a great day!

For a midday timeline cleanse, I came across this young (2-3 years) eastern box turtle today hanging out in the grass. I used focus tracking on the iPhone 18 so it would stay in focus as my figured out the best framing. Tap for full size. I hope you are having a great day!

For a TL cleanse, I tested my new iPhone 18 here (North Tower of our lighthouse) taking the 12 MP 8X optical zoom and digitally (hurts quality) tripling it right in camera to 24X! Yet it holds up reasonably well, even if you tap and pinch out. I hope you are having a great day!

Happy…Wednesday? Let me know if I have it right! We had a rough sunrise opportunity today because of low clouds, but once the sun got over them, we got a little bit of color and shimmer. Tap for full size, particularly because it's a vertical. I hope you have a great day!

For a timeline cleanse, here's a sparrow I passed on my way to the coffee shop today in the morning sun. Like the rest of us, he was rather perplexed at what this big yellow ball was in the sky after six straight days of rain. Tap for full size. I hope you are having a great day!

Happy Monday! It's a new week – and amazingly the sun actually came out after almost a week away. I took advantage of my new iPhone's 48 MP ultra-wide sensor to fit all of the clouds in this morning. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

Happy Monday! It's a new week with old weather – the wind has abated, but the rain keeps coming. So here is a still from yesterday. The rain will be stopping later today, so I'll have a chance to survey the area. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

Happy Sunday! The nor'easter I thought was finished came back crazy overnight. Today, the rain stopped long enough to get this video, and despite 46+ MPH winds, note that there's no wind noise on the iPhone 18! Tap and turn horizontal for full screen. I hope you have a great day!

Happy Saturday! The worst of the nor'easter seems to have passed us. Downtown was flooded and the Hook was closed with zero visibility this morning, but here's how it looks I from the house now and things seem pretty stable. Tap for full size. I hope you are having a great day!

For a TL cleanse, here is honeysuckle taken yesterday with my new iPhone. This was my first chance to see focus tracking at work, which in addition to accommodating a windy moving subject added more smooth background blur. Tap for full size. I hope you are having a great day!

Happy Tuesday! We are in the final hours of summer 😢. During the equinox the sun rises exactly halfway between its summer and winter extremes, coming straight up my beach path. It's cloudy this year so here's how it looked in 2023. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

Happy Thursday! We are almost through the week! I slept in so here is the second place vote-getter from yesterday's sunrise. It's straightforward but the shimmer, shoreline wave patterns, and pencil-thin cloud separator work well. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!

Happy Wednesday! We're halfway through the week! I was late so the sun was already rising before I got to the bridge so I got this rather artsy treatment, complemented by the sun's Omega effect where the sun "sticks" to the horizon. Tap for full size. I hope you have a great day!
