Another POTN Emigrant

[sparker1]

Howdy from Arizona, USA. Long time member of POTN, I'm Stan Parker or sparker1. I'm very much into wildlife, particularly birds, and travel. Unfortunately, health issues have limited my travel for the past couple years, but I'm hoping to resume in 2024. In truth, I don't post much anymore, but I do maintain a gallery at www.pbase.com/sparker1 and two blogs. One blog pertains to travel (http://stanstravelogues.blogspot.com/), the other is limited to Arizona photos, mostly birds (https://arizonaphotos.blogspot.com/). Anyone interested in getting notices of updates can let me know at stanparker99@gmail.com.

Welcome aboard, Stan! Hope you like the forum and looking forward to seeing your desert Southwest photos, even if infrequent. A region of the country I love very much.

Hey Stan...welcome.

Undortunaley for me health issues and mobility issues have to be taken into consideration when I travel these days. Just can't do things the way I used to. Used to be we'd leave a hotel in a city at 9 am and walk around all day until maybe 4 pm. Just can't do that anymore. But Uber is your friend!

Thanks, Phil. My favorite places are in the wilderness, no Uber there. Actually, driving is not a problem, walking any distance is the issue. I do bring an E-bike to use where appropriate.

Well, howdy, stranger!! It's so good to see you here. See, this place is why I have no time for anything else at the moment. Your blogs are wonderful. I hope you will post a few of your images here too. Welcome to Focus on Photography, Stan!

Thanks, Levina. I can see why you are so busy. That's great, a new hobby/passion for you. I just posted a shot of Miller Canyon for Sam's benefit. I have a lot going on, too, so I'm not sure how much posting I'll do.
