Makes me twitch

Makes me twitch, it does. Most of the pictures I took on this outing with Kate & Terry are lousy. Somehow I lost my focus and got the exposures all wrong. Bah! There is so so much to learn about this DSLR photography stuff. This Great Blue Heron posed with great patience and I messed up. Guess I won't be putting heron pictures from this outing up here after all.

What I've Learned

Such delicate goods as justice, love, honor and courtesy, and indeed all the things we care for, are valid everywhere but they are variously molded and often differently handled and sometimes nearly unrecognizable if you meet them in a foreign land, and the art of learning fundamental common values is perhaps the greatest gain of travel to those who wish to live at ease with their fellows.

The Middle of Everywhere, Freya Stark quoted by Mary Pipher, pg 339
