Taking Control… Learning Contentment
Ran across this fellow over in Carlsbad, CA in one of their many lagoons.
The thing is, after we walked past him heading around the lagoon, I realized I had filled up my camera card, with no spare on me. I decided to delete a few photos “just in case”. As we headed back to the car, we noticed had had caught lunch!
Lesson learned: pay attention to how full your camera card is, and don’t leave the extra in the car. 😁

Good you were able to catch these shots Lisa, I always start each adventure with a clean card, that way I don’t get caught with an unexpected surprise😊

Thank you, Ashely! I am usually extra careful (packing extra cards on every trip). Guess I just got carried away with beach photos and filled it up!! 🤣⛱️

Thank you Amy! yes! And funny thing, I’m usually very careful taking extra camera cards on our trips. So I just wasn’t paying attention!

Thank you Aunt Patsy! Maybe 25 or 30 feet? I had a zoom lens so that helped.

Wow, what an action shot! Is that a net around the fish or is that just how it looks?

Awesome shot…I know what that is like …filling up the camera card. Quick thinking on your part to delete a few and make some room.

Thank you! Yes, lesson learned! But I guess sometimes I also need to let myself see something awesome and not need to see it through the camera lens!
