iPhone 6 Photos

I’ve had my iPhone 6 since Friday and I’ve been taking pictures and video and am pretty impressed with the camera. It’s still only 8 mega pixels but it’s much better internals to make the camera better. Check out these photos taken with the iPhone 6 over the last few days.

New Bird

Bird #57 for the year is the Black-and-white Warbler. We were taking a walk through the Olmsted Woods at the National Cathedral when I saw this bird and was so excited to snap some pictures of it. I was excited because it makes bird #57 for the year which passes my total for last year of 56. Yay!

Seems Like

It seems like my blog has turned into a video blog. While that may look like the case, it isn’t. My latest hobby is creating videos and posting them to my YouTube Channel. I embed them here so those who don’t go to my YouTube Channel can see the videos.

However, I am still looking for birds, still taking lots of photographs, and still think of things to share on the blog. Just the other day I was at Scotts Run Nature Preserve recording video and taking pictures. One of the pictures I took was of the waterfalls. I slowed down the shutter speed and adjusted the other settings for the light conditions and came up with what I think is an amazing photo. Click the picture to make it bigger to see the detail.

I do have lots to say about the current happenings in the world and the US but I just haven’t spent time to write them down or to even record a video of how I feel about them. Maybe soon I’ll do just that. In the mean time, enjoy the videos and keep checking in. Actually, I don’t even know if anyone is coming to the blog anymore. We’ll see.

Migrating Warblers

This morning I went to Riverbend Park to do some more bird watching. As with other recent park visits, I saw lots and lots of birds I’ve already photographed. I did see two warblers that I’d not seen or photographed before. After doing some research to find out what birds they were, I found that they are both warblers who are migrating north and stop in the park on their way. The new birds are:

#40 Yellow-rumped Warbler
Yellow-rumpedWarbler
#41 Palm Warbler
