    Bruneau River Canyon

    I've been off to Nebraska and Colorado for a couple of weeks doing some turkey hunting, fishing and metal detecting. I just got home on Sunday and yesterday I finished processing my last photo from out in the desert. I head over to Oregon on the 7th, mainly as a working trip, but I hope to get...

    Through the Door of Time

    I walked in to an old homestead yesterday and took this shot through the front door. It looks like when they abandoned the place they left behind all their belongings.

    Lunar Eclipse - April 4th

    I spent last night in the desert watching and photographing the lunar eclipse. The skies were mostly clear, but there was a strong wind which caused my lens to move slightly and with long exposure time that equals blurriness. I got a few keepers, but nothing like I'd hoped for. This one is as...

    High Desert Springtime

    These are the last photos from the batch I took while camping last week. I'm going back out on the 3rd to try and shoot the moonrise and later in the morning on the 4th, the lunar eclipse. We're supposed to have partly cloudy skies, so I'm hoping everything works out. We'll get to see the...

    Some New Backyard Visitors

    It's a little early for most of our birds, but I put my feeders out this week anyway. These two are some of the more common feeder birds we get around here. The first is an American Goldfinch and the second one is a Common Redpoll. I'm really anxious for the Western Tanagers to come back. I...

    California Quail

    These are wild gamebirds, but the ones that hang around town eventually become fairly tame. I have a small group that comes by, almost like clockwork, every morning to look for the cracked corn that I spread out in my backyard for them. I like to sit on my deck while I'm drinking my coffee and...

    Push Me Pull You

    I stalked these sandhill cranes for over an hour and they never would let me get close. It was getting late in the day and I was loosing light so I ran the lens wide open to pick up as much light as I could to help with the camera shake. The shallow DOF caused the distant bird (the female) to...

    Nighttime on the Border

    I went camping along the Idaho-Nevada border for a few days this week. Last night was perfectly clear so I thought I'd practice my night photography. I took quite a few shots, but liked this one the best. It's not really that hard, but not being able to see the camera controls makes its seem...

    Sunlit Mountain

    I figure since everyone is so sick of the snow, I'd post a photo that's full to the brim with it. Actually we're having warm, sunny days in Idaho and while I enjoy the weather, it's not very productive for photography so I'm running out of files. But the good news is I'm catching up on...

    Silver Falls, Oregon

    I visited a friend in Oregon in November and hiked in the Silver Falls State Park, a beautiful and amazing spot with about 8 or 9 falls in a four mile hiking loop. This is one of the smaller ones, but I think the drop is about 89 feet. I misplaced the memory card with the photos, but I was...

    Bennett Mountain

    This mountain is just a few miles outside of my town. I can see it from my living room window. We've had a cold wind this week and I haven't gotten any photos around town, so I've been working on some of the ones I took last week.

    My old friend...isn't she beautiful

    Kelley asked for some shots from around my town and this is the first thing I noticed. The biggest and best kept flag in the town. [url=https://flic.kr/p/r7ycVx]

    Flickr Test

    Just trying to see if I can post images from a hosting site without having to resize them.

    Photo posting question

    Kelley, Can findmall accept off-site photo hosting images? I'm talking about bringing in links from places like Photobucket or Flickr. I usually share my images on three different photo sites I visit and the size restrictions are unique to each one. I'm trying to simplify the process, so...

    Old Homestead

    After weeks of great weather I decided to go out and camp for a few days, only to have a snowstorm blow in on the second day and I had to head back to the house. This is not a place you want to get stranded in as it's some of the most remote country left in the continental US. I've been to...

    Water Breaks Rock

    At least it does when it turns to ice. Another one I took a few weeks ago and just processed this morning. I liked the colors of lichen on the rocks at first, but when I saw the ice I knew I wanted to work it into the composition. The overall dull lighting gave the whole scene more of a soft...

    Edge of the Storm

    I took this photo about 3 weeks ago and finally got it processed. It was just after a storm was ending and we had about 6 inches of new snow. The sky was completely overcast, but from somewhere the sun broke through and highlighted that single hill.

    Little Redfish Lake, Idaho

    I shot this photo in late October and finally got around to processing the files. I think this was the best of the bunch. I was awake and on the road a couple of hours before sunrise to get to this spot I'd scoped out the day before. I wish the clouds had been a little thicker, but the...

    I got a new camera

    In the past I've been using a Nikon D5100. I love this camera, but it's a DX sensor. I decided to move up to a full frame format so I picked up a D810 a few months ago. We have some really good light and cloud formations this time of year in Idaho and I went out a couple of evenings ago to...

    6000 Mile Search for a LC was Successful

    A few months ago I made a post advertising my intent to travel back east from Idaho with two goals in mind: find my first Large Cent and visit the last nine of our fifty states I've never been to. I'm pleased to report that both goals were accomplished. Here are some statistics from my...
