Default Don't you hate that?
I was driving home from work today and saw the best thing ever. I drive past the entrance to a trail head every day. Today, as I'm driving by I see this dog, maybe a black lab mix, in the tall grass, with the golden sun shining down on him, running around in big circles. It was a huge tail wagging joy fest...in beautiful golden light...and I drove by...without a camera. OK, so it was a happy sight and it made me smile. It would've been SO much better if I had been walking, not driving and with, not without my camera.

Oh, I get those moments ALL the time. Something will just strike me as "that would be a great photo"......but I have other things going on at that time.

Two of the biggest cruise ships of the 21st century... The Queen Mary 2 and Queen Elizabeth 2 passing each other in Sydney Harbour, the rarest of maritime occurence with these behemoths... and I just stood there... in awe. Digital camera left in the car, 20 minutes walk/run...



...but on a different time, I was ready for this:

Airbus A380 World's Biggest Passenger Jet Aircraft
