August 24, 2018 – Day 298 – iPhone 7 Plus Daily B/W Photo Challenge – Aunt Chrystal! – My niece Chrystal surprised Elaina, Jayden and Damion yesterday when she walked in the door for their karate practice! She lives in Chicago and when she showed up you could hear plain as day Aunt Chrystal as the three of them rushed to give her a hug! I expected this to happen and was ready with my iPhone when she came in the door. Being prepared is always good, but still I got a bit of movement from being in the lower light of the indoors. However, I’ll take a little blur as this is a moment that makes it worth it!

August 22, 2018 – This 600mm long lens shot shows RJ Corman’s 3805 as it lopes along through a tunnel of trees, at about 10mph, as it makes its way east on the Memphis Turn, approaching the Hampton Station Road Crossing, outside of Clarksville, Tennessee on the afternoon return to the yard at Guthrie, Kentucky. A big shout out to Cooper Smith for helping me get ahead of this move!
