Taking a break...

God's Creation is awesome! I capture slices of it here.
Our annual fall photo explore went well in Western Colorado. Photos to soon be posted. Got Crystal Mill which you will recognize because it's been shot about 5 million times. But, that didn't matter to me. Honestly, this fall's shots lacked the dramatic snow on the mountains as we had in 2022 & '23, but we found new vistas, which kept the trip fresh.
We did it! Nearly 5000 miles on a grand road trip in July to Olympic and Mt. Rainier National Parks. The photo workshop at Olympic with Andy Cook (www.Rockymtnrefl.com) provided many diverse photo opps. Then we drove south, avoiding wildfires and capturing impressive waterfalls in Washington & Oregon. It's officially the "year of the waterfall"!
Check the new "Waterfall" & "Seascape" pages for new images and our first video from our trip. Whew! We thank God for a safe trip!
Watch our YouTube videos by clicking on the YouTube icon at the bottom of any page. The latest video is my trip to the Bisti Badlands of New Mexico. Talk about unusual..... I've added Instagram & Facebook, too. I've started posting photos on them. This is what happens when a retired person has too much time on his hands.

Oh those Instagrammers.......
I've accepted that they are part of the fabric weaved into "photography" these days. During our big trip, I often waited for them to do their thing before I shot a scene. I know I could edit them out of the image, but sometimes I'd just wait them out. The surprising thing was the chances they took to get "the selfie" like climbing up a sea stack. I guess when I was in my 20's, I thought I was "bullet proof" too.
It was refreshing to visit out of the way places that were uncrowded.
Thank you!
