Looks like we made it!

Howdy, howdy! Made it through BCT and about to do my ceremony tomorrow! Hoping to get caught up over the weekend but I wanted to pop in and say thank you for the prayers and well-wishers. It's my pleasure to serve and I can't wait for this opportunity to serve.

Lancaster, OH

Stepping out of my comfort zone and posting a panorama (sorry, no clouds that day.) I was surprised by how well LR stitched all my shots together. My computer almost crashed, but it obviously didn't since I have the results! It was a rather humid day, so I had to doctor it up quite a bit (again, awesome LR!) I'll try not to complain about the the new Google+ here, but it took me awhile to find my circle streams :/

Peek-a-Boo!

Even though wrens are territorial which means you'll only have one family per yard, they are still tons of fun to watch!

Posted using the new Google+. Not sure yet what I think of it, so far mostly positive.

It's Friday Again, and #FridaysAreBokehlicious!

Not being one to be left out, I thought I'd join in with the #toybokeh  fun! Hope y'all have a kicked-back weekend! I'm moving in, so it won't be that way for me. Couple more days ad it will be back to normal for me (for a couple weeks that is)

This one was well aged in the archives, so hopefully that did it well! I believe this was taken over 5 years ago with my bridge camera, so hopefully my post-processing skills have gotten good enough to veil the imperfections that come with a bridge camera lol!

Party time for all of us #bokeholics:

Change

And quite a big change at that! Somehow I didn't post to my profile that I joined the military 3 months ago as a 94M (Radar Repair) and today I am shipping out to begin basic. Soooo, social media has been back burner and will be really quiet until after I get out of Basic 2 1/2 months roughly. So I'll miss y'all and my favorite social media platform!

This is not a great image by any stretch of the imagination, but with #bokehballs like this, who could resist? Plus, the zoom feature is gone so no one will ever see the horrible quality muahaha! Unless you have a giant 4k monitor. Or download it full resolution. But I digress, happy Friday y'all, enjoy it!

For Whom the Bell Tolls

No bell ya say? Ah well, maybe true but that was the first thing that came into my head, so I'm sticking with it! This is one of the cool clocks they had in the downtown of most cities/towns in Oklahoma.

So this shot is a little bit on the fly since I'm doing it from my laptop in a car on my way to Oklahoma. Hope y'all are having a great weekend and boy have I been swamped recently!

A Bee Shot, Because Why Not?

Haven't posted to my insect collection in awhile, so here is one to catch up. Not exactly sure what the plant is that this bee is feeding on, but then again, do I ever? Hehehe
