Lock Out (#117)

A nice, friendly boardwalk to the beach.



Oops, NOT! It's so much easier to blockade the end of a broken boardwalk than to fix it.

Good Omen (#115)

Southwest Florida has had a few years of moderate drought, and March is usually one of the dry months.



Hopefully, this is a good omen.

Backlighting (#113)

Shooting toward the sun can be fun if you can keep the sun behind something ans minimize flare.

The Airport (#112)

I believe that San Diego International Airport is the busiest one-runway airport in the U.S. It is downtown. RIGHT downtown. Planes seem to weave through high buildings on their landing approach.

Bob

The Arrow (#91)

Upon approaching a lock in the Panama Canal, the skipper of a large ship must await directions as to which “lane” to use, port or starboard. Can this schmaltzy neon-lit arrow really play a serious rode in decision making?



It looks like it was stolen from an “Eat At Joe’s” sign on a diner in Brooklyn.

Bob

Close! (#90)



These ships pass close!

Bob

Panamax (#89)

This Panamax ship is in the Gatun Lock of the Panama Canal. Ships built to Panamax standards are 106 feet wide, just “small” enough to squeeze through the Panama Canal.



The locks are double wide, there are effectively two lanes of traffic. In the morning, both lanes take traffic in the same direction.

More Green Flash Follies (#76)

The composition is lacking, but I like how the foam leading lines work.



A few more tries and I might have something.

Some kind of swallow maybe?
