My drum corps history started with 5 years of playing Euphonium/Soprano in DCI Div III. After returning to teach for a few years, I took a short break from the activity and now play Bari/Euph with 2 DCA Alumni Corps and the current DCA Brass Ensemble champions.

I also take action photos at many marching arts events (DCI/DCA/NECGC/LMBA/etc) in the WNY/PA/OH regions. They're all available for free on Flickr, so check it out to see if I've caught any of you.

Well, it looks like Bluesky doesn't want me posting on their service. It's too bad, as there are many interesting people on there that aren't on Mastodon.
Whoever named "Inspiration Point" at #Letchworth knew what they were talking about. It's beautiful, especially at this time of the year. I wish the same person had named the park's waterfalls. "Upper Falls", "Middle Falls", and "Lower Falls" just don't awaken one's imagination in the same way. #waterfall #fall #oversaturated
I never realized until last week that a double rainbow has reversed colors. Vib G. Yor. Here's a few of my pics as proof, and there's an explanation at https://science.howstuffworks.com/nature/climate-weather/atmospheric/double-rainbows-rare.htm #waterfall #rainbow #doublerainbow
How rare are double rainbows?

A double rainbow, man! Just the sight of one can send us babbling into happiness. And why not? Rainbows are beautiful. And two rainbows at the same time? Even better. But just how rare are these colorful arcs?

I bought this 16 CD set from the Buffalo Library's book sale last year, and tonight seems like a good time to start enjoying it. The force was strong with this one.

There are only 2 corps in the world that have 10 of these trophies to line up in a row, and I'm glad I got to see this today. The 2024 season hasn't even started yet and I'm already missing the Cadets.

The Buccaneers kept saying they "can't stop", then their show ended and they stopped. Luckily I get to see them one more time tonight. #dca2023 #DrumCorps #ReadingBuccaneers (My spellchecker just tried to type "Reading Rainbow", and it was a good show too)
I'm not sure why Caballeros put some of their best performers in the end zone, but maybe that's because they're all great? #dca2023 #DrumCorps #HawthorneCaballeros
Tonight, I'm going to pay more attention to the background when I zoom in. I'll have to crop many of last night's Bushwackers pictures because the guard was standing in front of the 1st two letters of "Hollywood" #dca2023 #DrumCorps #Bushwackers
The front row behind the DM stand wasn't the best spot to watch Atlanta CV's show from, but I still enjoyed their show this year. #dca2023 #DrumCorps #AtlantaCV
