We had a good time on our picnic yesterday. Our internet connection is a lot faster than our old one, and it’s easy to use.
Our old tradition when we got there was to turn on our router, then look at, take a picture of, the gazing ball. Now I can use the router in the modem and won’t have to turn it on.
The gazing ball is within the circle of this picture taken from my iPhone:
Here it is using my Nikon telephoto lens:

A fun and successful trip.

I would never have been able to pick it out; you have fantastic eyes!
No, my eyes aren’t good at all. I was excited the first time I could see the ball without binoculars. The light was wrong Saturday so my naked eyes and my iPhone couldn’t see it, but my telephoto lens could. Last month I could see it without binoculars and my iPhone picked it up on 2X zoom.
amazing…
🙂
I couldn’t spot the gazing ball until you zoomed way in
It’s a tiny pinkish dot in about the center of the second photo. Here’s higher resolution version on Flickr.
My iPhone couldn’t detect it but I knew where to draw the circle.
It’s a tiny pink dot in about the middle of the next-to-last photo. Here’s higher resolution version on Flickr.
It’s always so nice to have a good day…
Yes. 🙂
the view where the gazing ball is is worth a lot of gazing. so very beautiful. glad the wi fi is up and running and running well…..good job on a good day
It was great. 🙂
Well, looking & searching for the g. ball in the next to last image, I still can’t spot it. Glad the Nikon zoom works…”I can see clearly now”!!
Spending a day out on your beautiful land is priceless.

Looks like a perfect postcard day!
Remind me, is the gazing ball made from stainless steel? So then, it’s not susceptible to weather extremes or lightning strikes?
Yes, it’s steel. Very sturdy.
That’s a powerful zoom lens.
We’re impressed. One of the best purchases we’ve ever made.
I meant to look at this on computer last night to see because I sure could not see on my phone…maybe I will remember after while.
It doesn’t matter. The pictures tell the story without you having to look at the details.
