Marty’s photo of the day #4681: Deb and I have been hearing saw-whet owls in the forest surrounding our house during the past few weeks. That sent me digging into my photo files to find this cute saw-whet owl that paid us a visit—landing on our front deck steps—in the summer of 2021.
Marty’s photo of the day #4680: Nellie, ears flapping! She’s now damn close to being just as fast as she was pre-bionic left-rear leg (surgery to remove her cranial cruciate ligament, refit the bone in her knee—all held together with a metal plate and six screws). I still cringe when she makes sharp cuts to […]
Marty’s photo of the day #4675: I probably don’t need to tell anyone where I shot this photo, but then, I live in a country where large numbers of people believe that vaccines are harmful and Derek Chauvin and Donald Trump are innocent. So for those people, here’s a photo of “Venus.”
Marty’s photo of the day #4670: Now that Nellie’s bionic left-rear leg is totally healed, we are back to all our old pre-surgery routines. One of those routines is a vigorous game of keep-away each morning, where Nellie will grab a stick and run at me full speed, only to dodge my grasp for the […]

Marty’s photo of the day #4664: I photographed this elephant while backpacking across Mana Pools National Park in Zimbabwe. Yeah, I used a telephoto lens.
Marty’s photo of the day #4664: This is Lake Superior, with Duluth, Minnesota far in the distance. When I was growing up in Duluth, photography wasn’t something I put much thought into. Someday, I’d like to go back and photograph the lake when the ice buckles and starts piling up along the shore. It can […]
Marty’s photo of the day #4663: “Come on Dad! My bionic leg feels great. Let’s play!” *For those that don’t know about Nellie’s bionic leg: She had TPLO surgery to remove the cranial cruciate ligament in her left-rear leg, refit the bone in her knee, and hold everything together with a metal plate and six […]
