I must say that I am not used to aircraft that can be towed by a golf cart. But this all looks fun! At Crystalaire airport in Llano in the high desert of Los Angeles.

Pretzel Baconator

Yesterday Facebook decided my photograph for National Toilet Paper Day was too revealing. So today I give you something even more decadent… The “Pretzel Baconator,” a unique creation from Wendy’s, showcases the restaurant’s signature approach to indulgent fast food. Founded by Dave Thomas in 1969, Wendy’s has grown to become the third-largest hamburger chain globally, boasting over 6,700 locations. This photograph captures the decadent layers of the Pretzel Baconator, featuring a soft pretzel bun, savory beef patties, crispy bacon, melted cheese, and tangy condiments, epitomizing Wendy’s innovative spirit and commitment to flavor.

Happy National Burger Day, UK! ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง


Letโ€™s celebrate with a throwback to a true classicโ€”the Jumbo Jack from Jack In The Box. ๐Ÿ” Introduced in 1971 to rival the Big Mac, this massive burger quickly made its mark in the fast food world. Fun fact: the only major change since then was swapping out Jackโ€™s Secret Sauce for ketchup in 1999!

I just photographed these fresh out of the bag, capturing the essence of this iconic burger. Craving more? Check out my food photography at http://SecondFocus.com you might just find something delicious! ๐Ÿ˜‹

National Aviation Day

It is National Aviation Day, August 19th. Established by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1939. While I wasnโ€™t around back then (lol), at 9 years old, I was already building model airplanes and hanging them from my bedroom ceiling. Fast forward, and Iโ€™ve had the incredible opportunity to fly in all kinds of World War II warbirds, biplanes, a jet fighter trainer, and both military and civilian helicopters. Aviation has truly been an amazing part of my life journey!
