HBD Ken, you are a baja legend!
when you have time i'd love to see more of your old flying pix. Even if you have to scan prints to upload.

Definitely not a legend Mike. But I'm sitting here looking at a 6-ft long shelf of albums with photos (prints) from Baja flying trips from the late 70s through the late 80s (when I switched to slides). I have GOT to get off my burro and scan some of those! Did I ever show you my beautiful old Baron??


BAJACAT - 2-10-2013 at 02:22 PM

happy BirthDay Ken, love your Baja Pix...thanks for sharing does with us.

Man, I just love that photo! I remember it well.... Bob H

David K - 2-10-2013 at 06:28 PM

It was featured in a past Baja Calendar... as I recall, it was a blue whale, and just north of Bahia de los Angeles??? Ken, did I get that right?

Ken Bondy - 2-10-2013 at 06:32 PM

Close David! It is a blue, but it was just south of Loreto off of Puerto Escondido. We went out with Leon at Baja Outpost in Loreto. Edit, I googled them and they are still there!++Ken++

Thanks for the clarification Ken... that is a rugged coastline, indeed! You must have been thrilled to snap that one, with the water flowing so evenly off its tail!

Happy Birthday, Seņor...

windgrrl - 2-10-2013 at 07:43 PM

...and many more. Your nutibranch pix rule.

It was fantastic seeing them David. That is one of my favorite photos ever. I probably took 200 images that day but everything fell into place for that one, the water sheeting off the flukes, background, etc.

bajadogs - 2-10-2013 at 09:17 PM

Dog piling on you Ken! Happy belated B-day. There are only a handful of folks who make this whole thing legit. Period! (exclamation point!) !

Iflyfish - 2-11-2013 at 12:01 AM

God bless you Ken Bondy :bounce::bounce::bounce: :spingrin::spingrin::spingrin:

I have appreciated the wonderful photos you have shared with us, some of the best I have ever seen of underwater creatures. I also appreciate your wit and intelligence. Have a great ride around the sun this year amigo!
