I went back to the car to change lenses and when I was about to go back I was taken back by the beauty of this view.
There were hundreds of folks out there digging for razor clams and we all saw this... It was quite incredible!

On 7th January 17 people started digging on the site next to Carter's House at the entrance to the Valley of the Kings. They are involved in the important task of preserving the tombs in the Theban Necropolis. An exact facsimile of the tomb of Tutankhamun will open to visitors next spring.
The project has been funded by Factum Foundation.

Two projects in one! My instant picture project and my chinese lantern project. This one is still hanging on and in fact is digging a little hole where the wind blows it around. If we get much more snow it will be buried however.
For the Now You Digging Deeper workshop. Playing around with props! An umbrella on a cold rainy day.
I've been digging up the stumps left over from the hedge I cut down over Spring Break. Unfortunately it's more difficult to dig out the stumps than it was to take down the hedge.
This bear seemed to be distracted by something to its left quite a few times as it was digging for food.
The proper hole for a new tree should be as deep as the distance from the root flare to the bottom of the root ball, but at least twice as wide. This is wider and shallower than you probably thought.
18/52: Bren and his partner in crime, Liza, have completely dug up and destroyed a planting bed which I had covered in lava rock - hence the red color of the telltale nose...

This is the only bit of "garden" that we have. My hubby and the girls did some digging this afternoon ready for some plants to go in soon.
in Freyja's words (age 6)
you dig a hole in the ground and put small sticks of wood in.
then you place a piece of meat, preferably grilled lamb, and some more sticks.
then you just wait for snow to cover the hole
the fox will fall in and not be able to get out!
The guys cut an access into the crawlspace from the basement in basically the only spot it would work, given all the plumbing and heating constraints down there. The concrete floor is poured now. As an aside, you can see orange cones out in the street, where the county spent the early part of the summer redoing a lot of concrete and assuring that we had extravagant amounts of dirt and filth from that work as well as our own.
Jeju is one of only a few traditionally matriarchal societies, with women bringing home the bacon (or abalone in this instance) while most men were in charge of raising the children and keeping the house. This is thanks to the haenyeo, or diving women, of the island. This is a rapidly disappearing field with most women keeping this tradition alive today aging well into their sixties. The women are free divers, sometimes diving to depths over 20 meters without any air. It was very interesting to be able to experience a bit of the history of this wonderful place.
Docks Unlimited owner works late and is rewarded with this view from his floating office. This was taken on Paugus Bay
Another one from the photo walk of the other night. When we came across this digger we all got a little shutter-happy, but I just to take it a little further by sticking my camera to a nearby roadsign with the GorillaPod and then messing about with my two speedlights.
Much as I like Nikon CLS, I have to say that it let me down here. I'm really beginning to see the point of radio triggers. Not that I can afford Pocket Wizards. Roll on RadioPoppers!
(CLS is still great for indoors and/or close range.)
Lit with one bare SB600 on the ground in front of the digger, fired by CLS, and one SB800 behind the digger's cab, not fired by Nikon CLS.
On February 3, 2011, after one of the worst snow storms to ever hit the area subsided, two of my favorite neighbors dig out.
I put away the wide angle lens and spent a few hours on the parkway today looking for the birds and the bees. :-D
10 minutes into snowblowing the driveway, the snowblower's auger drive belt broke, so I had to resort to hand shoveling. Uggh! 14 inches of snow and a very big driveway.
