Short Walk in Omaha / The Rest of the Daily Shots | February 26, 2025
iPhone 16 ProMax shot/processed (shot in RAW)
Spent some time “Chatting with my highlights” in Readwise. I really like this feature. I have highlights from over 1000 books now so it’s really interesting to have a more focused knowledge base to ask questions from. This feature may alter which things I highlight in the future. 🧐

Ever seen the inside a Saguaro cactus (Carnegiea gigantea)?
The woody skeleton inside the saguaro gives a framework of interconnected, woody ribs that provide structural support, enabling the cactus to reach heights of up to 40–50 feet.

More experimentation today. Not happy with anything, but learning has occurred. ☺️

Here are the others from the day I shot and had to choose from. Would you have picked a different one for your daily shot?
Inspired by @maique@social.lol, who posted some rainy-day windshield shots, I thought it was perfect that it was raining in BNA.
This is how we used to change a nose tire on the Twin Otter; this technique is probably frowned upon today 😆
I spent many hours working and flying on ol' 100AP; I miss that plane.

Exposed to Light | 02 - Hippo Love by Unknown
Photographer: Unknown.
Camera: Unknown.
Title: Unknown; I’m calling it Hippo Love.
Link: Unknown.
I have two desktop screens. One’s background picture constantly changes; the other has this, which never changes. The love, care, and trust that this picture imparts makes me smile every day. I would love to know the background of this shot. I would love to talk to this man and find out about his relationship with this hippo. What is the hippo’s name? How long was he a part of this hippo’s life? Was this a daily ritual? How long did they sit there? Who took the picture?
I love the working-class feel of the picture. I had that lunch box for a while growing up. I love the tape on it. Mostly, I love the hippos' look of complete security and peace. No matter what was going on in this hippo’s life, at this moment, all was well with the world.
When I look at this picture first thing in the morning when the computer whirls to life and the screens pop on, all is right in my world, too.
