I was privileged to photograph at the Cherrylane Horse Trials yesterday. The Knox family put on another great event this year.
Even though the rain came down hard at times, the riders showed their determination in competition.

Butterflies always fascinate me that even when their wings are torn, the fly with grace and determination.
We organized a casting competition for our awesome guides in Punta Allen Mexico last year. This is one of them. They are all absolutely amazing casters.

Just finished taking some autumn colors one fine cold morning when I saw this guy running from the opposite direction.. fortunately, I still had the camera in my hand, so quickly turned around as soon as he passed by me... didn't have quite the time I would've liked to compose it, so quickly took this shot.
Its an uncropped photo, just resized to post on Flickr.. so viewing it on large would be encouraged!!
Despite of the bright spots on the top, I like it for I wish I had the determination to get up run... something I've always wanted to do..
Thank you all for your comments and favs.

This was Mt.Baker standing tall in the distance with last bit of sunset colors still left on the sky. Thick clouds were moving around in the valley below and everything was snow covered around me. This is an image that I would have missed if I didn't push myself to the limit during the hike up and I am glad I did.
We started our hike at around 9-10am down from trailhead. It was a group of 5-6 people and we determined to snowshoe up to the ridge with nice view of Mt.Baker and overnight there. A couple of days before the hike, it snowed a lot and now trail was literally gone and we had to break our own way up. Generally people take turns to break the trail because it is really tiring to be on the front line . We did the same at the beginning, but soon realized our pace was not good enough to make to the ridge before dark. I was feeling good that day and volunteered to break the majority of trail for my group. Maybe I pushed myself too hard during this process and my leg started to feel cramped when we were almost to the camp. I tried to just embrace all the pains and kept going with my last bit of energy. Finally we made it to the ridge a little bit after sunset and while everyone was setting up tents and preparing for a hot dinner, I grabbed this shot to remember the scenery we worked so hard for.
Hi
We have been meeting up with Jan's Sister on A Saturday mornings for a little walk. Sandra don't go anywhere without Brodie. I was lucky enough to capture this moment on one of those walks.

My brother in law John running a half-marathon on his 76th birthday in memory of his youngest brother who sadly passed away just a few months ago from Motor Neurone Disease.
The aim, to raise money to fund research and a possible treatment for this debilitating disease which currently has no cure.
Total so far ... £1300!
Not an ideal day for photography or running, cold, wet and windy. So well done John, nailed it in just over 2 hours!
Happy Birthday!
Explore April 25/09...Dropped....Bald Eagle. View Large On Black Just taking off with a eye for something on the ground. Too close to get all the eagle in the photo. The average lifespan of Bald Eagles in the wild is around 20 years, with the oldest living to be about 30. In captivity, they often live somewhat longer. In one instance, a captive individual in New York lived for nearly 50 years. As with size, the average lifespan of an eagle population appears to be influenced by its location.

Un escursionista solitario si incammina, a piedi, per la magnifica ma desolata landa della Valle della Morte, California. Se non è determinazione quella... :)

A skilled young lady imposes her will on a wave at Huntington Beach, California. Huntington Beach is also known as Surf City, USA and the US Open of Surfing is held there each July. The town is located about 36 miles south from downtown Los Angles and while it is a beautiful retreat today, the internet has photos of the beach littered with oil wells during the not too distant past.
I've seen photographers on the beach with tripods and long lenses. This photo was captured from the pier with a hand held 70-200 at 200 mm. It is cropped pretty heavily though.
