Friday Fotos! – spew

Paper mill smokestacks.
I posted this picture on a local Facebook page, and some of the locals who are pro-mill said that it is only water vapor.
So, they’re “Cloud Makers.” Hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide clouds with a little methane, carbon monoxide and a few heavy metals thrown in.

These stacks spew 24/7, and another paper mill is within a mile of this one.

The island is so beautiful overall but it’s not without its ugliness too. Thanks for stopping by, Chris

Happy SUNday!

The ‘Magic Kingdom’.
The blossom, ant, and a hidden face.
“Amelia’s Mermaids’. A local statue here at the beach and a perfect place to test cameras and lenses.

Happy SUNday! – a sharp Panasonic Lumix from 2008

Here is another super nice digital camera from Panasonic – the Lumix DMC-FZ28.

Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ28. A 10-megapixel bridge camera with an 18x optical zoom lens from Leica.
It is fun to use a digicam with a sharp CCD sensor for film-like images.
It has excellent macro capabilities.
The Leica lens has a zoom range of 27 to 486mm (35mm equivalent).
Super telephoto image at 486mm.
Wide-angle at 27mm.
Complete image stabilization in addition to the 18x zoom.

This fantastic camera is available in my camera shop at http://www.ccstudio2380.com.

Mint condition and thoroughly tested.

Thanks for stopping by, Chris

Happy SUNday!

A wood stork is getting some late-night shopping at my local Harris Teeter grocery store in Northeast Florida.

He kept tripping the doors as he debated whether or not to go inside.
Stare down.
Stay in the crosswalk!

Thanks for stopping by, and have a great day, Chris.

radioactive raccoon

This cute adolescent raccoon awaited a handout in a local grocery store parking lot. A reminder not to use the flash on my camera phone when photographing wildlife.
