Another image inspired from recently reading Michael Crichton's book, "Micro".

Constructive critiques welcome.

ODC - Dream

As the cold deepens in Alaska - one of the first chores each morning is to light the wood stove. We no longer chop kindling to get a fire started. Good old "fat wood" is the secret to get your fire roaring quickly.

(I got this shot of Doc as he was lighting the three fat wood sticks that ignite the logs.)

I figured the scariest Halloween image I could come up with was my own physiognomy. Of course, I did have to give myself a bit of a run through Photoshop Elements and load a bunch of layers and stuff on top of it, and at no time did I have any idea what the final product would look like; and the only reason I quit was because I ran out of time, or who knows what this would have ended up looking like? Anyway, it was fun, and that's all I care about.

A variation on a previous image ...

I found a bunch of starlings today. They seemed to like me.

This spacey abstract started out as a snapshot of a sea star in the waterfront sidewalk window of the Seattle Aquarium.

Not my best, but ideal to have a bit of fun in Photoshop.

Just could not resist it.

Thanks for looking

In my dreams, I can be other people. I have dreamt myself to be a different female with a different life than my own, a ten-year-old boy swimming in a lake, middle-aged male fighting zombies. To name the few people I've become in my dream. I have no control in who I become in these dreams. I merge into a new, different person in these dreams with different lives.

Often when I dream about being someone else in my dreams they are somewhat lucid. I am more able to recognizes I am dreaming so than I can control my action in my dreams. Whenever I have dreamed as someone else, I do not read into the meaning of those dreams. I enjoy most of my dream as they are entertaining or thrilling.

Illustration 2

This is a composite image. I captured the image of the Red-tailed Hawk yesterday morning, and the sky (background) about a month ago. The feathering took a bit of time, and it isn't perfect, but I do like the way it turned out. As with all my images, don't hesitate to give me any constructive critique. That is one of the best ways to grow as a photographer.

A few years ago, in early spring, Doc and I were travelling in the Yukon, before the campgrounds and RV Parks had opened. When mid-afternoon arrived we decided that we had better grab a motel room for the night. On the outskirts of Whitehorse, we found a well maintained little place, and checked in with the owners. With our key in hand, we arrived at the door and opened it, expecting to see the usual bedroom and bath layout. Instead, it looked like we had entered someone's kitchen! We didn't know whether to go in - or back out. We checked the key number and the door number and they matched - so in we went. To our surprise - (and for the usual low nightly fee) - we had a full bath - complete kitchen, and a full bedroom with two double beds! It was as if we had rented a small apartment, Needless to say, we quickly booked two more nights, and enjoyed all of the sights and sounds of the city of Whitehorse, as well as the surrounding wilderness - while also enjoying all of the comforts of home. HSS!

Re-worked an old image I like by replacing the plain negative space.
