Ash Cave
Hocking Hills State Park
Logan, Ohio
Back in the day when I was shooting film I shot just as much black and white as I did color, i believe this is my first BW digital image I've posted since shooting digital over seven years ago.
But I've just got NIK's Collection with Silver Efex Pro 2 so things may start to change.

Beautiful Ash Cave in Hocking Hills State Park, Ohio The day we were there there was a man sitting up the hill playing beautiful violin music. It was a magical place.
Stacking of a cigarette ash. 1:1
Le stacking est une technique pas toujours facile à effectuer. Pour me faire la main, j'ai pris ce que j'avais à proximité d'assez petit. Je me suis dit que cette cendre de cigarette allait faire l'affaire.
Photographed along the White Pass Highway, Yakima County, Washington. Although I could not find it, I believe there is a nest with young nearby. This bird appeared to be collecting insects to feed its young. About half hour after I took this photo I almost stepped on a coiled rattlesnake. IMG_6006
In 1916 my great grandmother Mary Elizabeth Stanley was living at 85 Ash Grove, Liverpool, England. The address appears on the Attestation Paper of my grandfather Arthur Andrew Stanley (1892-1969) when he joined the Canadian Overseas Expeditionary Force.

I have watched two Ash-throated Flycatchers as they brought food to nestlings in a nestbox a number of days recently. It was an awesome nature experience. I was very impressed with the frequency they brought food and sometimes when I was away from the scene would think that they were STILL searching for and delivering food at that moment. They would land near the nestbox with their prey, then often at length scan the area before flying to the nestbox. This apparent suspicion was part of their pattern before I started to gradually get closer. I really felt that as I stayed still when they approached that they essentially ignored me. Photos were taken on different days with different lighting.
My observation ended in an anticlimactic way. One day I came back and no flycatchers were coming to the nestbox. I did hear one or more in the distance. I hope all the work of the parents was fruitful in producing viable offspring.

The fungus Chalara fraxinea, (Ash dieback) has severely affected other European countries and has now spread to Britain. It kills 90 per cent of the Ash trees it infects. This view could soon be a thing of the past in the UK .....
Ash Cave is named after the huge pile of ashes found under the shelter by early settlers in Ohio. The largest pile was recorded as being 30 metres long, and 1 metre deep. The source of the ashes is unknown but is believed to be from Indian campfires built up over hundreds of years.
A test excavation of the ashes in 1877 revealed sticks, arrows, stalks of coarse grasses, animal bones in great variety, bits of pottery, flints and corn cobs.
The horseshoe-shaped cave is massive; measuring 200 metres from end to end, 30 meters deep from the rear cave wall to its front edge with the rim rising 30 metres high.
Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge, established June 18, 1984, is located approximately 90 miles northwest of Las Vegas in the Amargosa Valley of southern Nye County, Nevada. To date, over 23,000 acres of spring-fed wetlands and alkaline desert uplands are managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The refuge provides habitat for at least 24 plants and animals found nowhere else in the world. Four fish and one plant are currently listed as endangered.
This concentration of indigenous life distinguishes Ash Meadows NWR as having a greater concentration of endemic life than any other local area in the United States and the second greatest in all of North America. Ash Meadows provides a valuable and unprecedented example of desert oases that are now extremely uncommon in the southwestern United States. Credit: Cyndi Souza/USFWS
