Happy #WorldPhotographyDay! Here are two of my favorite photos I took while in the #Midwest. A small lake with a deer drinking from it called Midge Lake in #Minnesota and Root Beer Falls in #Michigan More of my photography at ScottWGonzalez.com

A small lake in the woods seen from an opening in the thin trees in the foreground. The foreground is a grassy area with white flowers, dappled sunlight, and a few trees. The midground is the lake that is reflecting the blue sky with white clouds and the dense woods on the other side of the lake. The sky above is blue with white clouds.

A waterfall scene. The exposure is long so the waterfall and the bubbles from it are milky white blurs. The water in the river that fills the lower part of the frame is a root beer color. There are multiple gray rocks in the river. Where the waterfall is falling the rocks are wet and have various spots of green moss on them. Above and beyond the waterfall a forest of green trees can be seen.

Sounds about the same as my experience in Vegas Doc. At least had a good conversation with a friend.

Hey Brett this is the first I am hearing of this event. It might be interesting. Personally if I was going to Big Bear I would probably just sit in my Dad's yard to watch meteors with my camera hooked up to a remote. That is what I did last December for the Geminids. The skies there are pretty dark.

Well I am back from my #Midwest trip. Over 1300 miles, 5 states (3 new), 13+ #waterfalls, 2 Great Lakes, countless lesser #lakes, and god only knows how many miles of hiking. Pictures are up at ScottWGonzalez.com as well as a taste here. DM for prints. #photography #travel #EastCoastKin

A forest scene with a waterfall that is composed of many thin streams of water falling over a ledge. Where the water hits the rock below the area of wear is obvious because of the color difference in the stone and the lack of vegetation. Where the water is not running there is an abundance of greenery including trees above the waterfall. A wooden bridge is above the stream that leads to the waterfall. .

A cascade waterfall seen head on from the stream that it leads to. There are fallen logs that are in the stream which might have contributed to the levels of the cascade. The canyon walls on the left and right are covered with green vegetation and trees. The water that is moving is a cottony white because of the longer exposure.

While planning my trip to #Wisconsin, #Minnesota, #Iowa, and #Illinois I realized that lighting bugs or fireflies are a thing there. Looking for info about when and where to see them. I have never seen one before to my knowledge.

I have heard some BS come out of some nurses mouths. Not defending that or the writer. I have called out nurses prejudices in my 16 years as a nurse. Mostly it was misgendering, there have been cases of the Q word though. Curiously what year is the book set in?

No drawing sorry. I have been told I do photography rather well. I had someone compare a recent photo of mine to Peter Lik's photography.

The show is good a little out there. I was not expecting to see David Duchovny in drag or to learn the whole song Mairzy Doats and Dozey Doats because of it. The waterfall was impressive; wish I could have gotten closer. youtu.be/esYkEX6q-R8?...

I was going to quote post it with mine, you have them disabled. I would be in Washington in the 90s. It is a rather trippy show.

Thank you for the recommendations. The Vanguard looks interesting. I thought Kopps was a chain at first because of the multiple locations. After looking deeper I see it is not. I should pass by one of them and I will see what the flavor of the day is.

Excellent for you. I love those little birds, always a pleasant surprise to see them. Recently I had a first for my backyard (kind of) a Western Flycatcher. Previous years they were a Pacific slope Flycatchers which I had seen multiple times in my yard.

Having a bad time with #photography. I have entered my work into a 100ish contests, and the closest I got to winning was being a semi finalists. It really feels bad when one of the winning ones is a bland pic. Maybe I take meh pictures, or maybe I just don't hit on what judges like. #EastCoastKin

A natural pool between red sandstone outcroppings. The water is still and reflects the cliffs and rocks very well. There is some floating debris in the water. The top quarter of the frame forms a rough bowl shape of sky that is a pale bright blue with brilliant white clouds, a darker mirror image in reflected in the pool on the bottom quarter of the frame. The red sandstone has layers of depth, on sandstone on the right is a black patch and above it about mid distance in the frame is a patch of dormant vegetation.

A photo of the Luxor pyramid in Las Vegas at night. Three lines leading down from the top point of the pyramid are visible (two on the left and one on the right) with green dashes of light going down them. The white light that emits a beam into the sky takes up the top of the pyramid. The light is roughly the width of the full Moon which is directly in the path of the beam. The full Moon has a circular glow around it.

A mountain below a partially cloudy sky, it is at sunset so some of the clouds are pinks and reds while others are gray and white. The exposure is long enough to make the clouds into a slight blur of motion. The sky is white in the middle right of the frame and graduates to a deep blue on the top left, a few stars can been seen on the left of the frame above the mountain. The mountain is a chestnut color with snow in the valleys and crevices including a glacier in the largest valley on the right. The foreground is trees and bushes that are nearly in silhouette that frame the bottom and the sides about halfway up the frame.

A male Ruddy Duck in breeding plumage. Its bill is baby blue leading to a half oval of white on its head, the rest of the head is black. The body is a chestnut color and the upright tail is black. It is swimming in smooth water that is a blue gray color and is reflected quite clearly.

Curiously do any other #healthcare workers or #nurses try to see if they can do a task with their non dominant hand? Years ago I gave myself stitches with my left hand (the injury was on my right hand) and today I successfully did venipuncture with my left hand. I wanna hear stories horror or not.

#BirdOfTheDay theme #PassportPhoto. Here are two. First is one of my favorite desert birds the Phainopepla, if you see desert mistletoe it was probably from a Phainopepla. The other is a Burrowing Owl, a small owl (less than a foot tall) that is often up during the day. #EastCoastKin #Photography

A male Phainopepla perched in a tree facing the camera. It is a shiny black bird with a mohawk and red eyes. The bird is sunlit from the left side of the frame leaving the half of the bird lit and half in shadow. There are several branches that are blurry and in the foreground, in the background there are a couple of larger branches going from the right of the frame to the left in an upward angle.

A Burrowing Owl looking straight at the camera. It is behind a log and is looking over it. The owl has large yellow eyes with medium sized round pupils that are black. Its feathers are a sandy tan and white.

If not for #PeterDinklage in Toxic Avenger I would not know to put shredded cheese on the outside of my grilled cheese sandwiches.

A grilled pepperoni and cheese sandwich with melted shredded cheese on the outside on a small purple plate. The sandwich is cut in half from corner to corner and slightly pulled apart. The orientation of the sandwich makes it diamond shaped.

In the Army I took a combat life saver course (an Army EMT), and I kept asking questions to get more details. The instructor told me to stop because I was going outside of the training and said go to college to get more info. I cut myself on a beer bottle and gave myself 2 stitches. Currently an RN

Happy #StunDay! Here is #Snoqualmie Falls. It was a sight to see and I am glad I went. Still working on pictures from the #Seattle trip, I did put up several new ones at ScottWGonzalez.com in the PNW folder. Check them out! DM for prints. #EastCoastKin #Photography #Art #nature

Snoqualamie Falls seen from a distance and slightly above. The sky above the scene is slightly warm white clouds. There is a cliff where the water is falling from a river. The waterfall is broken in two at the top and join towards the middle of the descent. The exposure is long so the falling and moving water are a feathery white from blur. The water is falling from such a height that there is mist to the right and at the bottom of the fall. There is a lodge on the left side of the frame and waterfall that is brown and white. On the right side of the river and waterfall is a small forest of pine or fir trees, there are a couple of building that can be seen between the trees. Below the trees is a grey and brown cliff face leading to the water below. The water is a dark green and leads out of the frame on the bottom right. In the foreground on the bottom left is an outcropping of land that has green vegetation on it.
