25077 Steps in Thee Days

The little app that I have on my phone is far more accurate than I thought that it would be. However, there is no question that with that amount of walking and watching what I eat has dropped the pounds on a steady basis. The most surprising thing about that little app is that I am not tired afterwards and I sleep like a baby.  

Saturday was a day of 9,940 steps.Sunday was the peak at 10,168 steps (that is the recommended number of steps per day) and today was a late start; an accident with my camera that is going to require a visit to the camera shop, although, I did switch to a lesser focal length (which I needed to do anyway with spring popping out all over). Those three days of walking covered 10.67 miles with a month-to-date calorie burn of 1,145.8 calories gone bye-bye. 

Those three days of shooting on foot generated 147 images on Saturday; 163 images on Sunday and 21 images today. 

A couple of years back, I had ask myself the question: "What area of the wagon wheel does the majority of my image sales come from?" The answer was surprising. Within 5-miles of home. Of course, the key word here is majority.  That does not say that no sales have come from the full scope of the area covered in the whole of the wagon wheel target area. Never-the-less, it has given me even a better health condition overall,both as a photographer and as images are concerned.

That does not say that the past three days are all finished work. I still have 331 images to edit and the clock is ticking to get some of them to market. Others, will fall into the cogwheel as it goes around its circle.The last of the sunshine  will be short tomorrow as a series of fronts ride the Southern Jet Stream from California to the Northeastern part of the US. So, the timing to edit will fall just at the right time when the workflow will mostly get done. 

Here are a few shots. I just went outside to shoot a full moon rising in a haze in the Eastern night sky. Then, Murphy's Law struck. Battery Empty flashes on the screen. It is now on the charge waiting to give the "blue light" that I have a full battery pack again. I should have put it on charge last night but I didn't. Before I went out today, I checked it and I had about a quarter of a battery left.
