Satou Sabally completing a 3-point play against Air Force

@OregonWBB #ncaaW #GoDucks @pac12 #SatouSabally

Tonight the Ducks take on Washington in Eugene for their first Pac-12 contest of the 2018-2019 season. This year the Pac-12 is loaded as five (or six depending on the poll) teams are in the top 25. The Ducks, at #5, are ranked at the top of those five teams.

20-photo photomerge of Sedona’s Fay Canyon

@ArizonaTourism @SedonaAZ #sedona #arizona #landscapes

Today’s image is a bit distorted as it is a composite of 20 photos (all shot vertical, 10 across the top and 10 along the bottom). In real life, the scene on the left would require you to turn your head a bit to the left, and the view on the right would require a slight head turn to the right. In total, this is probably 200+ degrees as you look out Fay Canyon.

A “normal” photo from this spot looks more like this.

This looked so amazing. Unfortunately, everything was fully booked once we tried to do a day of reservation. We should have planned ahead. Next time…

The offseason is too long … and too cold.

And since I didn’t do one of these in 2017, a couple of favorites from late in 2017:

Pagan Altar, The Room of Shadows

Satyricon, Deep Calleth Upon Deep

For 2019 I’m really looking forward to new Tool and Rammstein (and seeing both bands too).
