Smoke a cigar? Baxter had you covered back in Victor's mining days!
We're not in Kansas anymore. The unique terrain of central Utah.
The sun lit this young tree just right. A waterfall in the background will cause the tree to prosper for years.
Factory Butte in Utah. A close-up of interesting ridges.
Somewhere in an Oregon forest....brimming with life.
A meeting of the Goblins....tons of them at Goblin Valley State Park in Utah
This ice-encased twig in the Arkansas River caught my eye on a winter's day.
This was an odd-looking stump at some beach in beautiful Kauai. I took a long exposure to get these smooth blue waves. The stump looks like a sea monster to me. Perhaps, I consumed too much coffee this particular morning!
An endless sea of aspens around Crested Butte, CO. The side-lighting from the left helped give this image depth from the side. The inverted V-shape in the middle (look closely) provided additional depth. It also helped that nobody else was around!
If you are wondering, I simply call this blurred aspens. I swear I was sober as a judge when I took this image.
Great Sand Dunes National Park allows interesting vistas as well as this close-up shot. I think it's hard to tell how far away I was when I got this shot. (Answer: about three feet!)
The red leaves first caught my eye. Then, these white-barked birches (?) made the rest of this composition by providing a vivid contrast. This is around Maggie's Valley, near the Great Smoky Mountain N.P.
Two red leaves.
