This is an actual functioning slide rule to multiply, divide, find squares and roots. Ctrl-F to show sliding scale D, then move window bottom up until scale D meets scale C, then move window sides to slide scale D along scale C to multiply & divide. Read squares and roots directly from scales B and C. Works best at higher screen resolutions; toolbars set for no tabs on top and 100 pixels of header showing.

I captured this male osprey delivering a fish to the nest where the female and two chicks anxiously awaited their breakfast. They built their nest atop a pole erected by conservationists for this purpose in the waters of the Severn River near Annapolis, Maryland, USA. I was told they winter in South America from November to March each year. I added a rotated copy of the male bird to the right side to fit the space, leaving his feet in the original image to show the fish he was carrying.

Rotated photo I took on a beautiful but breezy moonlit night at the ocean (Outer Banks, NC) when my son tossed a firecracker into our fire on the beach, sending embers and sparks flying into the air. The wind blew them directly towards my camera (and missing it, but not by much), which was mounted on a tripod and set for a 4 second manual exposure at f/8, ISO-400, 24mm. I call it "Sparks Fly" because it reminds me of that great song by Taylor Swift. This was the last shot I took on our vacation and the one I liked the most. I felt lucky to capture this, because I doubt that we could ever do it again.
