One of the reasons I put off buying the Alpinist was the fear that it'd look out of place at work. Looks to me like there's nothing to worry about. #geargeek #watchfam #seiko #strapcode #alpinist #sarb017 #jubilee

There's a glint in this raptor's eye, and I don't know if I want to know what glint means... #wildlifephotography #kerncounty #california #raptorphotography #redtailedhawk

I'm not entirely happy with this shot from a technical perspective (it's a bit fuzzy) but the content is dynamic enough that I think it's worth posting. #wildlifephotography #kerncounty #california #redtailedhawk

I need a new lens. As much as I like this shot, the autofocus on my Nikkor 55-300mm is slow and prone to wigging out, which is why I don't have the follow up shot to this one. #wildlifephotography #kerncounty #california #goldeneagle #raptors #raptorphotography #nikon #nikkor

Getting the evil eye from a turkey vulture is eerie.

This guy's my bud. He didn't fly off until some asshat decided to honk at the guy with a camera.

The TWSBI Eco claimed its first victim. At least the inkstains match the blue accents... #geargeek #penaddict #TWSBI #peakdesign

I find it immensely comforting to know that even redtails don't always have their shit together.

My true calling is taking pictures of birds that really just want me to fuck right off.

If you're wondering, yes, Beth and I have a giant California flag hanging up in our apartment, and no, the cats haven't tried to tear it down yet.

These guys are bigger than you think...especially when they burst out of an orchard you're driving alongside.

Managed to get a few shots of this barn owl after it took off from a nearby tree.

Alright, the time has come to sell a fair chunk of stuff. I have rent to pay, gifts to buy, and review samples to procure, so do me a favor and pick something up. All prices include PP fees and USPS Priority Mail (insured). International buyers are okay, but shipping is on you and it's at your own risk. For every item purchased beyond the first, I'll knock $10 off. Contact me if you have any questions. The only trade I'm looking for is a Seiko Alpinist. Citizen Nighthawk - $150. Worn, few dings on the case, no scratches on the crystal. Comes with original box+paperwork and extra links for the bracelet. Big Idea Design Ti Pocket Pro - $50. Slightly used, little to no visible wear. Comes with box. Great Eastern Cutlery #13 Clerk - $70. User, patina is well developed, but there's no wear that can't be cleaned up, no rust, chips, etc. Ships with black leather CK pocket slip and tube. Great Eastern Cutlery #66 Calf Roper - $85. Used and slightly modified (I filed the kick down on the Sheepsfoot blade to make it ride a bit lower). Ships with tan leather CK pocket slip and tube. Great Eastern Cutlery #15 Little Jack - $80. Only wear is the patina on the blade and on the bolsters, but that can be cleaned easily enough. Ships with tube. Great Eastern Cutlery #18 Beagle - $70. User, patina is well developed, but all the wear is cosmetic. #geargeek #knifenut #flashaholic #penaddict #watchfam #fidgets #usnstagram #knifeclub #edc #everydaycarry #greateasterncutlery #tidioutecutlery #northfieldunxld #bigideadesign #bigidesign #citizen #nighthawk #clerk #littlejack #calfroper #beagle #slipjointparadigm #gearsale #geartrade #knifesale #knifetrade #watchsale #watchswap #watchtrade #knifeswap #gearswap #tipocketpro
