I started out the day working on removing the sediment for about an hour on the old well.
Trail work
And then thought I’d ride the quad runner up into the hills and work on a trail so I got my tools and rode on up into the hills to work on a trail. I parked in this spot and hiked up to the trail to do some work getting across a ditch.
Picture problems
When I tried to download today’s pictures the one above was the only one that I could get. The storage card said no data available and it said the storage device needed formatted so I lost most of todays pictures for some unknown reason.
Anyway I worked on making a trail across the ditch for a couple hours and tired myself out nicely before returning home for a nap.
Eating cherries
I forgot to mention I ate a bunch of cherries this morning and every other chance I got to eat them throughout the day. I decided maybe I don’t need any dinner today and ate some more cherries. Yummy. You have to eat them when you have them and before the birds eat them first.
More old well work
I finished out the day working on the old well sediment removal some more and that pretty much was my day.
There are over a hundred pictures that are served up randomly every time you visit or change pages. They are of earlier pictures of interest and also some just to remind me of things.
A Sony AX33 4K, a video camera that takes stills too. What am I doing with that? I take pictures from my Kayak a lot. I found I was missing interesting shots, because my pic was being processed in my camera, before it would let me take another pic. Since I like to take what I call action stills, I bought this camera to take videos, that I could make stills out of, but, as a bonus, this camera also came with buttons to just take stills and that's what I mostly do, unless something is real interesting or too far away for my still zooms. My digilat zoom setting for video goes to two hundred x, and sometimes I need that, but usually, I only use the 10x lens zoom. Because this camera is HD and 4K, the quality has to be real good and it has a lot of stabilizers on it which really helps out a lot for taking pics on the water.
The other thing it has that is a must is a view finder and I had to buy Sony's top of the line cam to get it. This is a must for taking pics on the water, as you must hold the camera as still as posible and putting that eye piece to the eye forms a tripod with your arms that helps a lot. The eye piece is also a must as it works way better than a LED screen to see what you are taking a picture of in the daylight as the LED screens wash out easily in sunlight.
I also have another video camera, a Canon VIXIA G30. I use them both to mostly take stills. The Sony takes higher resolution stills than the G30. That was a bit of a disappointment as I bought the G30 to replace an older camera I dunked in the river, but then had to buy the Sony to get higher still picture resolution that the G30 was lacking.
