I Can Definitely See Clearly Now

Had the YAG laser treatment on my left eye today. What a difference - everything is clear and sharp again. Still need readers for near vision, though. My right eye, treated 2 weeks ago, tested at 20/15 today. Will have the small black 'floaters' in the left eye for a few days, but no big deal. I'll be a bit less dependent on autofocus now. Took a photowalk on a small stretch of our property 2 days ago. Got about 3 good shots and ideas for a few more.

Saw my first flying squirrel 3 nights ago when it landed in our window-mounted bird feeder. Got a blurry iPhone pic through the window. It being dark outside, had to turn the flash on which created some reflections. Had never seen it there before. If it becomes a bit of a regular visitor, I'll set up my blind outside with a MIOPS trigger on the camera and some lights. We're into freezing temps here at night, so I'll monitor the situation from inside.

I started back on my rowing machine 2 days after my fall, and it seems to help the mobility. Taking the Concept2 Holiday Challenge to complete 100 km between Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve. Still below the daily average that I need, but should be able to catch up within about a week.

Keep shooting!
