This was fun. First time flown a tail dragger and now understand why they zig-zag as they taxi. The only way to see a straight line when taxing is to move the engine cowling left and right.

Freezer block or cleaning solution?
Here is one from my garden a few days back. Shot on a proper camera for a change!
Uptown Butte Montana from my backyard last night.
A new bottle of Windex that I had bought the other day....and when I had it out again on the counter got to looking at it and thinking, "hm....." so grabbed the iPhone!
A zebra swallowtail landed in the yard this morning. He was kind enough to wait and let me get my camera (with the wrong lens at the ready
) before he flew away (got a few iPhone shots too). I've never seen this type of swallowtail before.

I have been a fan and supporter of the Raspberry Pi computers when they first came out, buying them for my grandsons, godsons and their classmates. A great learning tool for them and this old student. They just came out with an update camera attachment for the Pi. I have it on order and wondered if any you have worked with photography and the Pi? Below is a short article about it.
"The Raspberry Pi Foundation have slipped out a new product, a $50 camera module with a larger sensor that increases the resolution from the 8 megapixels of its predecessor to a Sony IMX477R stacked, back-illuminated 12.3 megapixel sensor, and most interestingly adds a mounting ring for a C mount lens (the kind used with CCTV equipment) in place of the tiny fixed focus lenses of past Pi cameras. In addition there is a standard threaded tripod mount on the module, and an adapter ring for CS mount lens types. The camera cannot be used without a lens, but there are a few options available when ordering, like 16mm telephoto or 6mm wide angle lenses, if you do not already have a suitable lens on hand."

That is one huge smile! You can definitely see the eagerness to get to you & the resultant pulling along of your daughter! ?
