What I Would Like in a Camera
In this section I have some things I have written in the past, and am adding one every now and then. A couple short articles I originally wrote for The Washington Birder, a quarterly no longer in print, and a short story written for my granddaughter are from the past.
'Musing Over a Life Bird' was written mostly while on the road in the spring of 2006. Often, when wandering, I find the nights long and wake up in the wee hours unable to fall back to sleep. This is when many of my musings get started. This time I decided to start writing while I still had the thought.
'Musing X Wondering about Hybrids' was similar, in that I started it in the wee hours, but this time I was at home. Probably because it was in November of 2007, a time of year I would stay out only when too far away to go home. I still ponder the question of when is a rare bird a rare bird.
The third offering is a 'tongue in cheek' short story I wrote for my granddaughter during that stage of life youngsters go through. And usually out grow. We hope.
The fourth article is kind of an extended musing. It started out to be one thing and ended up another. The conclusion is one I reach a lot these days. It isn't by intent, it just seems like the phrase "all roads lead to Rome". Where else you going to go?
"Cameras, Lenses and 800lb Gorillas" is some thoughts about the camera industry and where it and myself are headed.
"What I Would Like in a Camera" is just that including some of what I don't like.
