Grumpy Old Guy's JournalCongratulations to Legger for their successful contest entry.
Legger's very first post on DU was the photograph of the hummingbird, "Coming In For A Landing," in the August photo contest. It was tied for second place with two other great photos.
I've known Legger for thirty eight years. We first met when I dropped off a roll of Tri-X at her family's custom B&W Photo Lab in 1983. Fortunately for me, I had the good sense to marry her! Leslie and I celebrated our thirty sixth anniversary earlier this year. There is absolutely no truth to the rumor that I married her for the free photoprocessing.
Leslie isn't able to start a thread since she is still a new DU member, so she asked me to thank everyone for their support.
Another meteor image
This image is a composite showing several meteors at once. There are three that are very bright, and if you look closely there is at least one that is very faint

I drove two hundred miles and stayed up all night to get this shot. How is this for a "brief moment in time?" Get out there and shoot folks!
In the spirit of the August photo contest...
... and since I can't enter, I thought it would be okay if I shared a few pics of my own. The theme of the contest is "A Brief Moment in Time." Sometimes timing is everything. Thanks for looking. Get out there and shoot!
