Yesterday I posted a photo from an Icelandic turf church. That photo was taken a few miles down the road from the hotel (Hofsstaðir Guesthouse) we used. Behind the hotel is a beautiful valley and fjord called Skagafjörður. I took this photo the morning we checked out looking over Skagafjörður.
My Super Bowl Selection
As you’ve probably noticed on my blog before, I’m a Tom Brady fan from his days at the University of Michigan. Plus, my Detroit Lions never win, so I have always needed a back up team. When Brady was in New England, I’d cheer from them. Now I’m cheering for Tampa Bay in tonight’s Super Bowl. I’m assuming the Chiefs will win, but I’ll still cheer for the GOAT quarterback to win….
I took this photo of him back in 2016, when the Patriots were at Heinz Field.
Bonaire Wind Surfing
I’ve never tried this and probably never will. But I can capture a good photo of someone else doing it while I stand on solid land.
SF Fog
I hope you have a great weekend. We don’t plan to do much, which is going to be a good thing.
Tonight’s photo is from my last trip to San Francisco. I know they get fog all the time, but I felt lucky to experience it while I was there. As you can see, it was just starting to roll into the bay from the Pacific Ocean.

Glory Dusk
Another short blog post for you tonight. Here is a photo I took on the Carnival Glory at dusk. I love the blue colors on the deck and the orange colors in the background just after sunset. This was also taken in Montego Bay Jamaica.

Jamaican Sunset
I took this from our cabin balcony while we (Carnival Glory) were docked in Montego Bay Jamaica. Pretty hard to beat this setting!!

Montego Bay
We had a great time sailing and snorkeling around Montego Bay, Jamaica. We didn’t see much of the rest of the island, but this spot was great. I captured the Carnival Glory in the marina with my drone before we left for the next stop.

Windsurfing
I’ve been playing with the new Sony camera gear. Here is a quick shot I captured in Lac Bay on the island of Bonaire. This place was packed with Windsurfers. Earlier in the day (on the other side of the island) we saw dozens of Kite Surfers

Bay of Kotor
Here is another photo from a past Europe trip where MJ and I ate to much gelato. I don’t know what it is about Europe, but we eat to much of it on every one of our trips to that area. We don’t routinely eat ice cream at home or on any other trips….. but Europe is gelato country for us.
Anyway, this is the Bay of Kotor with the city of Kotor, which is located in the country of Montenegro. Beautiful little country. This city is a fortified town on Montenegro’s Adriatic coast surrounded by limestone cliffs of Mt. Lovcen. The city goes back to the medieval times and probably earlier.

Buccaneers
I covered the Steelers’ first pre-season game of the year last night against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The game wasn’t super exciting and I had some rust that needs to be shaken off before the regular season starts. That being said, I got some good photos. Since it was a preseason game and most of the starters didn’t play, I spent some time capturing elements around the game like this helmet. I need to remember to take more shots of things like this vs. just live action shots of the players.
Scroll down to see a photo of me on the field last night.

Me…. photo by Jason Pohuski
Great Bay
It has been a few years since my last visit to St. Martin. I took this photo on the beach looking out at the Great Bay. Amazing location!! I’ve had this photo processed and sitting on my hard drive for a long time…. It was just waiting for it’s time… Guess what? It is time.

Another Golden Gate Bridge Photo
If you were making a list of the most photographed sites in the world, I’d bet this bridge would be in the top ten list. I’ve posted a number of photos of this bridge in the past, including one less then a month ago.
I took this photo in early June from a hiking path near the Golden Gate Welcome Center on a very cold day for that time of the year.

Cobb
It’s time for an NFL photo. So, I present to you this photo I took of Randall Cobb ( @rcobb18 ) last season. I’m not a Packers fan, but it was fun to photograph them from the sideline and see this fine organization up close.

Hout Bay
It’s been a little while since I posted a South Africa photo. And as you all know, I loved that trip. Anyway, here’s a panorama photo looking over Hout Bay towards Harbour Heights on Cape Peninsula in the Western Cape region of the country….. Just beautiful. In case you didn’t know, this is in the Southwestern corner on the country on the Atlantic Ocean side of the continent.

Grand Harbour
It has been a while since I posted a photo from Europe. Tonight’s the night….so here is a photo of the Grand Harbour in Valletta Malta. This was such an amazing looking city. Of all the European cities we visited, this is one spot I want to return to again. I’ll just say it’s back on our bucket list again.

Hout Bay
Here is another South Africa photo and this one doesn’t include an animal. This is Hout Bay which is south of Cape Town on the Cape Peninsula. We had a nice time exploring this area and as you can see the location is beautiful. Frankly, there was lots of beautiful locations in the country, even if an animal wasn’t in the foreground.

Simpson Bay Sunset
Today’s blog post if of a sunset from Simpson’s Bay in St. Martin. We had a wonderful time traveling to this island with a few family members. Mother nature treated us to a week full of wonderful sunsets like this one. I took this photo from the beach at our resort. I like the moody feel of this photo and it takes me right back to our time sitting on the beach watching this unfold. Good times, great location.

Simpson Bay Sunset
Simpson Bay
Tonight’s post is a sunset from Simpson Bay in St. Maarten. I attended a sunset cocktail party on the rooftop of our hotel. That gave me an opportunity to capture this great scene as it happened. I’m ready to go back to the Caribbean. At this point, I don’t have any future trips booked. That will have to change soon.

St. Maarten Rooftopping
When we visited St. Maartin, we stayed at the Simpson Bay Resort and Marina. The resort has a wonderful roof access that allows for a beautiful 180 degree view of the famous Simpson Bay. So I took advantage of this and took a ton of photos of the bay. But to be honest, this photo I took looking straight down at the resort pool was one of my favorites from this location.

Shirt Tail
I will be photographing the Pittsburgh Steelers vs. San Francisco 49ers this weekend at Heinz Field. I’ve had a rough week physically with some minor issues, so I hope I feel better by Sunday. Regardless, I’ll go and have a great time watching two great teams fight it out.
So thinking about the upcoming weekend got me thinking about the last game I shot, which was the Steelers vs. the Packers. So I decided to post a photo from that game. I love this photo and processed it a little different then normal. I converted everything to black and white except of #27 Eddie Lacy and the Steelers defensive player who has him by the Shirt Tail.
