Passing Robots

In the past 24 hours I've passed by three different types of autonomous robots: many Waymo cars, Coco delivery vehicles and WHILL autonomous wheel chairs at LAX.

As much as the humanoid automatons have been hyped, like the Optimus from Tesla, robots are filling more and more rolls in our everyday lives. Slowly, but su

Snowy Egret Gliding Past A Watery Abstract

Another photos from a fine morning birding at Ballona Creek. It's been rainy in LA these last few days, less than ideal for more birding. We'll see what next week brings.

Weird Things In The Atmosphere

Sometimes a phone is all you need when trying for an abstract.

In reality, this is a bit of a wind-blown contrail from a jet, presumably, next to the sun.
