This is likely my only (huge) February 2024 gallery. Most of the noteworthy shots here are from a trip to the Oregon coast: a new Short-billed Gull lifer, some nice sparrow shots, sea lions, and the sunset.

The above hashes-<date>.txt
file contains SHA-256 hashes of all the photos
from this shoot. The hashes-<date>.txt.sig
is a signature of that hashes
file, created with my PGP key. The signature file
itself was written to both the Bitcoin Cash and Algorand blockchains, in the
OP RETURN
and Note
fields respectively, using the transactions below.
In short, this proves that these photos and the signature both existed at the time the
transactions were written to the Bitcoin Cash and Algorand blockchains.
This blog post has more details.

Song SparrowYou can see how the original shot in camera had the sparrow really close to the right side of the frame. I used Photoshop to extend the image with another shot. It didn't turn out that great, but at a small size like the thumbnail here it looks ok.

I used Photoshop's generative fill feature to paint over a small ship on the horizon. I left the ship in some other shots. I'm not sure whether these images look better with or without the ship.

I used Photoshop's generative fill feature to paint over a small ship on the horizon in this image as well, and also to fix some small areas that looked a bit odd from Lightroom Classics's panorama merging.
