For the Nolls

So probably a disappointment that its not a picture of Alaska, but damn -20 is COLD!

I have now done my 5th delivery and have a total of 17 OB patients I'm following now! Not bad for just over two months in practice and no advertising to date. Thats coming very soon.

Look for my website also coming soon

I'm feeling green

OK, this is the picture that should have gone with that last post. I've already blogged the other photo.

If you happened to catch my buddy James, you know that I honestly and truly wish he'd just hurry up and get his wife out of the service and get back to Alaska. -5 degrees staring up at the stars was fun, but it would have been much more fun with a buddy.

I figure that green glow over the top of that mountain just might be what James was eluding to. Too bad he won't see it for a few more years yet.

This photo came courtesy of my new 10-22mm EFs lens. I know, I shouldn't have gotten an EFs lens if I would SOME day switch to full frame. But as I see it, I haven't gotten rid of my Digital Rebel yet (although it will soon be going to my brother-in-law) why would I part ways with the 30D. I'm sure it will work nicely on it for some time to come.

Lastly, why do camera shops insist on berating those of us that don't use cheap UV filters in front of our expensive L glass???? I paid $1200 for my 70-200 2.8L why would I want to put a $30 or $100 dollar piece of glass in front of it?

Until another dark night,

Finally...

It looks like I finally get to start working! I'll be credentialled to start working as of 1 December. It has been great being off for two months, but I'm ready to start practicing again.

Wish me luck!

After several attempts in vain, I have finally figured out how to show off my photos on flickr better.

Only 7 weeks and 5 days left at RAF Lakenheath. Orders aren't in yet, but I'm not particularly worried. We should get everything in on time. Its just a bit over a week until we head out to Alaska for a house hunting trip. Even with the benefit of the internet, its hard buying a house over the net.

Bruce Willis-Die Hard 4.0

I think I'm feeling my inner Papparrazi now. First the Royal Family, then the Harry Potter kids and now Bruce Willis!

OK, so this one wasn't nearly as close as it was taken from the Burger King upper deck some 500 yards away. But with a borrowed (thanks Steve) 100-400mm lens it wasn't a problem. With the great quality of my 30D it cropped out just nicely.

Rupert Grint, James Phelps and Candice

What are the chances, really, of meeting a celebrity while you are out and about? Cinda, Candice and I along with our friends Carri and 2 of her 4 children, Cassi and Mitchell went to London for the day to see Mary Poppins.

A little aside, Mary Poppins is an absolute MUST see when you are in London. Phenomenal isn't enough to explain how good it is.

Anyway, we had talked on the drive down that it would just be so cool to run in to a celeb just walking around London. And sure enough...WE DID! These young men were so nice and gracious to chat for a second and let us get our 15 seconds of standing next to fame. I was amazed at just how normal they could be.

As the count down gets closer, I will miss London an aweful lot.
