Woody negotiates the rock piles of Gird Point at sundown.
Gird Point Lookout. Bitterroot National Forest, Montana.
This is a section of Wreck Beach near the University of British Columbia. It's secluded which accounts for it being a favorite among nudist. I visited it fully clothed in winter.
I like this in a geeky kind of way because both the foreground and background elements appear in focus. It's also very different than the beaches back home in Florida. Sometimes I post photos just for the scenery and memory, and I suppose this is one of those.
Thank goodness for old photos, I would forget so much without them. There is so much going on in the present, that the past gets crowded out. Not that I want to live in the past, but pictures pull together things I've done and places I've been which helps provide the backstory to where I am today.
Trying to be arty with the Disney Bottling Co building, one wall is covered with corrugated steel filled with lit Chinese graphics. Reflected against the window I rather liked the effect, especially with the waitress behind doing her job.

This is a long exposure panorama of three separate images; the exposure is about ten-seconds. Now that cooler weather is on the way I think its time to get out and enjoy. Not that I need an excuse. More: goo.gl/rpQ9CQ
On Monday I noticed a sunrise taking shape as I drove home from the gym. I grabbed my gear and headed across the river to capture the colors as they lite the sky. I barely made it on account of all the traffic, most people were driving to work. By the time I finished and headed back over the bridge the roads were clogged. I was late for work. But you know? Getting a nice photo makes it all worth while. More on the blog: goo.gl/4xS8Zs
The photo was taken as a RAW file by my DJI Phantom Pro 3 drone. I used Photomatix Pro to HDR post process the photo and Photoshop to mask through an extra glowing of the active white water. I also used Photoshop to mask out the houses above the falls.
Abandoned school. I was out all day with John Shillaw
( www.flickr.com/photos/jshillaw/favorites/ ) and another photographer friend of ours, John Knorr. We had a great day shooting things that I would not normally shoot (rusted structures etc.). We ended the day looking for a ghost town, but we ran out of daylight before ever finding it. John & John were mostly shooting film.
I processed this with the new Aurora HDR software. Awesome software! #AuroraHDR
Visit to Concrete City with fellow photographers: Curtis Solanick, Brian Bukeavich, Lewis De Joseph, Marty Straub and Dave Cohen.
Since purchasing MacPhun's new HDR software, AuroraHDR Pro over the holidays, I made sure to capture plenty of bracketed exposures to jump head-first into the program (I've used HDRsoft's Photomatix Pro dating back to late 2006)

When I hear the word dune, I think of the desert, but these along the Florida beach are a different variety. Unlike the shifting sands of the Sahara, these are covered with plants and are meant to hold their shape in a storm. They are what keeps us from being washed away completely.
If you look carefully through the top of the dune, you'll see orange tape marking a sea turtle nest. Scores of volunteers comb the beach for nests, erect barriers, and take careful notes over the incubation period. Once hatched, they'll dash for the water so as not to be eaten by birds. Only a few survive to adulthood; it's a rough start to what will hopefully become a long life in the sea.
Nothing is permanent, yet everything is trying to hold on. The dunes and turtles are both pitted against the forces of nature. Perhaps the tension in the environment is what produces the beauty on earth. It seems that elemental pressures are a creative force. Without them, we'd all be washed away and overrun with too many sea turtles. On second thought, you can never have too many sea turtles.
