Re: PEso: Mystery MOuntain

John - keep reading the thread... :-)  answer there and a nice link

I knew exactly where i was but not the name of individual peaks in the 
range. .. and I always do keep ALL the frames when I was shooting 
chromes , even if they are lemons, for the reason you mentioned.. in 
addition to extensive notes ... because i was shooting a lot for stock 
and I had to submit all info...


Dan and an Ansel Adams photo I saw on line got me a suitable answer..

You and I both often answer the original post, rather than the replies 
that people make who saw the post before we did...  I can tell or

you wouldn't have asked the question :-)

Not a distraction though ..

When I'm trying to figure out where I took a photograph and don't have 
the info at hand it sometimes helps if I can figure out where the 
images before and after were taken and see what Google maps will tell 
me about how to get from the "before" location to the "after" location.


It will often spark a memory.

I hope this helps and is not just a distraction.

Re: Peso-Mystery Duck

[John]

Might also be a hybrid with a domestic duck someone abandoned to the
wild. I've seen that around here with Mallards.

Someone gets their kids ducklings for Easter & by mid-summer they've
released them on one of the local flood control lakes.

By the next summer, the domestic ducks have taken up with local Mallards
that stay here year round & there will be ducklings that almost look
like Mallards.

color.
Is the bill really that bright blue,l or is that reflection from the water?

Very nice and sharp capture.

It looks like some type of Scaup to me, but it differs enough from the

Well, my first guess is if it's not in Birds of North America, it might

Maybe you've discovered a new species, or it's an artificial organism

Re: Peso: Mystery Canyon

[Jack Davis]

I believe you're right, John. Among the images I had given the drugstore to 
scan, was one I know was a smallish Yellowstone waterfall shot 
(not the repeatedly seen Grand Canyon of Yellowstone falls). That may be in 
Yellowstone. Been several years since last being in any part of
Yellowstone.

It's not the Grand Canyon. Too many trees down near the river & the
walls aren't steep enough.

I see some odd shades which I tend to attribute to the very small drugstore 
scan. It's really not one
that I'm driven to have rescanned.
Thanks for commenting, Christine.

I'm considering a full res scan if I can come up with the negative.

Re: Peso: Mystery Canyon

[Attila Boros]

I like the placement of the tree on the right and the river flowing
through the frame. It has a painterly feel and a lot of potential to
be developed into a great photo. You can mine for negatives next
time:)

When the "local" Air Force Base here has an open house they usually 
bring in a C-5B for the static display. Just let down the front and rear 
ramps and there's no waiting in line.


The cargo bay on the C-5 could hold 6 Greyhound/Trailways buses.

It's like walking through a tunnel on the Blue Ridge Parkyway, only 
slightly more roomy & no worries about traffic. But I don't think the 
C-17 has the tilt up nose to make that possible.

Yeah, since the RAAF bought a few of these they regularly fly in and out
of Richmond RAAF base about 10 km away.  So far none have flown directly
over our house (as the C130s do often) but one did do a low pass over
the Windsor golf course about a year ago while I was teeing off.  Made a
right mess of that shot, although I wished I had something similar I
could have blamed for messing up the other 90 or so shots

You're the closest... it's the cargo door of a C-17 Globemaster III.

I've put some extra photos up on the same page.

http://www.multi.net.nz/mystery/

During summer the US Antarctic Program uses one of these planes to ferry people 
and supplies from their base at Christchurch Airport down to Antarctica.  They 
held an open day on Saturday to let the public have a look at the plane.  It 
was very popular and we had to queue for ages.  The line was moving very slowly 
and we only got halfway through the cargo hold before we had to turn back and 
leave to make a lunch appointment.

They did a low flyover almost right over my house on Friday.  It makes quite a 
noise... I wouldn't mind seeing it take off.

"Crested pelican" didn't work, but "horned pelican" did.
"American white pelican, in spring, a thin, flat horn forms temporarily on the 
beak of adult birds of both sexes. It is shed after the eggs are laid."

Now everyone can sleep tonight. =)

It's frogspawn coral shot through algae that had been gone over by a
snail. When the snail eats, it only harvests about half the algae in
almost a checkerboard pattern, which I guess means that the algae
grows back a lot faster than if the snail ate a continuous strip.

I liked the patterns that the snail eats into the algae, and the color
of the frogspawn coral behind it.  I need to try it sometime with

It's one of three things:

Food (shrimp, chicken?) that is being breaded in a plastic bag.

A dozen neckid oiled up dancers trying to squish the poor guy on the

PESO: Mystery Blossoms

[Jack Davis]

While visiting our daughter and family a few days ago, I got to photo poking 
around their property. Daughter didn't remember the name of the pictured 
blossoms, but the combination of colors are intriguing to the point I, 
obviously, thought I'd post a shot.
Any comments certainly welcome and will be grateful if someone can identify the 
plant.
I realize that the plain of focus falls somewhere in the center of the branch. 
I AE-locked on one of the blossoms near the top.

[Alastair Robertson]

Well you guys came up with some great captions for this shot - very
witty - I think my favourites are Paul's lost trousers, Bob W's lost
Englishmen, and Stan's aperture simulator sighting!I can now
reveal the real answer - Ken was on the right track - this is New
Zealand's famous hotwater beach where at low tide you can dig a hole
in the sand and hot springs bubble up.  You can read about it here -
http://www.mercurybay.co.nz/activities/hotwaterbeach.php.  I went
there when I was a kid and I think we were the only ones there.  Now
it's in all the guides books and as you can see it's now hard to stake
a claim - it's like the old gold rush days!

I have just a noticed there's a problem with the homepage on our
soilbugs site (soilbugs.massey.ac.nz) - sorry if you had problems
getting there - should be fixed tomorrow.

Alastair,
Welcome to the list.  We visited your fair country in Oct/Nov.
It was as spectacular as Dave Mann's photos promised.
Can't wait to get back...

Hi Alastair.

"The highlight of the summer in one of the more remote coastal villages of NZ 
is the 'Bury Dad up to his neck on the beach' competition.  The winter 
equivalent 'Carry a snowflake 100yards in your bare hands without it melting' 
was abandoned last year due to global warming"

They're English people who went on holiday to Rhyl. They decided to
dig their way through to Australia, and are now looking confused and
just a little bit miffed to discover that they missed, and arrived in
New Zealand instead.

Welcome. Fun pic, nicely composed and rendered. I'd guess that the guy 
in the foreground lost his trousers, and everyone is trying to help him 
find them:-).

PESO - mystery picture and a re-intoduction (I can now post threads again)

[Alastair Robertson]

Hi all

I've been at best a part-time list member and long-time digest reader.
 In the past my work email was overwhelmed by the volume of mail on
the list and I had to cancel subscription.  Now with a new GMail
account, I have plenty of storage in the inbox and can subscribe
again. And after a hitch with rich text format destroying my attempts
at posting a thread (sorted with the help of Doug), I can finally
launch my own threads.

This list has provided me with a wealth of information over the years
- there's so much collective knowledge and great photogs too.

My gear.  I have had a bunch of pentax bodies over the years staring
with a ME Super, Program A and Super A, MZ5N, *istD, and since last
month a K10D.  Primes include K24/3.5, M35/3.5, M50/1.4, A50/1.7,
FA100/2.8, A*200/2.8, Sigma APO 300/4, zooms 18-35FAJ, FA24-90/4,
FA28-70/4, F70-210. Several teleconverters, AF280T, AF140c, AF360FGZ.

Mostly I take nature photographs for work - see
http://soilbugs.massey.ac.nz for examples of this stuff (macro shots
of New Zealand soil invertebrates that my wife put together - I take
the photos).

Thought I would start with a PESO -
http://www.pbase.com/kiwibiologist/image/72906411 and a bit of mystery
one - you suggest a caption or explanation and we will see whether any
knows what's going on in this shot. Just a snap really, but I liked
the perverse scene.
