I haven't posted for a while.

I had cataract surgery about a week ago, and I've been taking it easy since then. I've been giving my eyeballs a rest, and haven't shot anything. Here are some older pics that I felt like posting, other "reflection" shots that I could have entered in the last contest.

I may be sitting out the next contest. I've been living in Southern California for nearly fifty years, and don't have many good autumn shots.

More Maui Pics

Here are a few more pics from our recent trip to Maui. Some of these were shot by my lovely wife Legger. There are still a few more to come.

We just spent a week in Maui.

More to come.

Spoiler alert: This was the best shot of the week IMHO.

About Grumpy Old Guy

Thank you Democratic Underground for keeping me sane for the last four years. I think I was probably the longest lurker here. I started following DU during the Dubya administration. I was first attracted to the "Top Ten Conservative Idiots of the Week." I've been following along ever since. I always felt guilty for not participating, but refrained from doing so because I already spend way too much time online. However, after recent events, I just can't sit back any longer. I had to log on and thank you folks for all that you do. I'm a retired TV newscast director with forty years experience and more than eighteen thousand broadcasts under my belt, most of them live. I now travel the country (when I can) shooting landscape, astro and wildlife photography. You can see some of my photos at Ross-Kestin.Pixels.com or on Instagram at @oldguywithacamera. Thanks again!
