Into The Forest

I've been thinking about an image that I wanted to create for awhile. I would try process a file and always end up tossing the results. Finally I ran across the right composition combined with the right light and managed to figure out the right processing.... and it only took 6 months. Now on to image #2

Sunset On The Sound

I managed to get down to the nearest beach to meet up with a couple of local photographers for sunset yesterday. It was low tide and the stream had recently carved a bend through the sand right as it entered the Puget Sound...something I had never seen there before. I love how you can visit a spot 20 or 30 times and it is never quite the same.

5 Minutes At Picnic Point

The storms were rolling through the Pacific Northwest earlier in the week but I was lucky enough to score a 30 minute dry stretch on Tuesday morning. It was just enough time to squeeze off a few 5 minute exposures of the wind-driven skies and water.

Lake Cushman

I usually avoid visiting reservoirs late in the year. The water levels are drawn down exposing a muddy dirty shoreline. Lake Cushman on the Olympic Peninsula changed my opinion. The water was low but it revealed a wonderland of gnarled stumps and cool rock formations.

Twilight Over Hood Canal

My son and I hung out yesterday along Hood Canal. We logged over 12 hours on the road, 250 miles in the car, 10 photo stops, a couple of short hikes, a ferry ride home, and the obligatory pancake dinner. Not once did he utter a single complaint (pretty amazing for a 6 year old). We scored some beautiful still water and a steely blue sky at the last stop. It would have been the perfect way to end the day but what he said as day slid into night was even better, "Dad....Best road trip...EVER!" I'm a happy papa right now :)

Endless Expanse

"Endless Expanse"

Autumn is here, winter is around the corner and the storms in the Pacific Northwest are frequent visitors now. Some may prefer to spend the next 6 months enjoying inside pursuits, but I look forward to heading to the beach and wandering the empty shorelines.

Overhaul Of Website...And Some Leaves

I have some great news but first I should talk about the photo...

Autumn leaves....enough said...now onto the best stuff...

After way too many hours in front of the monitor, I have finally finished overhauling my website. Gone is the use of flash (so it should run better on Apple products) and I think the site is a little easier to navigate. Feel free to drop by and take a look
