She moved out to Silicon Valley, knocked on doors, answered Craig's list adds, chased referral from friend for nine-months and finally landed with LinkedIn. A week later, Cisco gave her a new offer. She's now with Uber. I think that being there was key to landing a position.

I PMed you, best to take this out of the thread.

Great shot! I was fascinated with tiles when I saw the Endeavour last year.

Midday winter sun up here north.

Itsed65 · 01-25-2015, 11:30 AM

I've spent some time in Norway in the winter. Beautiful, but cold, so cold

Itsed65 · 01-25-2015, 11:46 AM

Heard a noise that I hadn't heard in quite a while while I was at the park yesterday. Looked up and saw these flying over at pretty low altitude. Probably heading to Travis AFB from across the pond.

Ed, finally saw a harrier again yesterday and good day of shooting the hunt.

Sweet! (Well maybe not for the mouse or vole!)

Itsed65 · 01-25-2015, 07:55 PM

I caught these two in a bit of a disagreement today

Son, have you had enough? by dcstep, on Flickr

M_Six · 01-26-2015, 02:52 PM

Perfect timing, DC.

BTW, there are about 26 million folks in the Northeast who are envious of your weather right about now.

Thanks Mark. 10-fps and taking 600-shots makes "timing" much easier. (Glad I'm not paying for film)

I'm itching to get out. 66-degrees and not a cloud in the sky. Here I come harriers...

Some pics from Iceland. I cannot take credit for any these, but thought you guys would appreciate them. Some of these look like they may be computer generated, but I'm not sure.

Thanks, very nice.

They are indeed a bit over sharpened for my tastes, but that's what sells.

Itsed65 · 01-27-2015, 07:42 PM

Nice work on both of the above Dave.

Itsed65 · 01-27-2015, 08:19 PM

The old 1D4 auto focus tracking is still pretty darn good. This is even at f8 with a TC.

Amazing. Until you've tried it, it's hard to appreciate how hard those shots can be.

Gibbous Waxing Moon 01-27-2015 by dcstep, on Flickr

Hand held, out the car window. Only 500mm, with a big crop and lots of noise reduction for the sky.

Itsed65 · 01-28-2015, 10:02 PM

Nice detail in that one.
