Autumn is underway in Alaska. Hunting camps have opened - the State Fair has opened - schools have reopened - road construction is winding down, boats are being pulled from the waterfront and stored in backyards until next spring, and tourists in RV's are fleeing our state in great numbers. All of this activity takes place in the space of about two weeks.
In this image you see a hunting camp that is road accessible. From here you can either fly to your favorite hunting spot, or go by horseback. It is an area with abundant wildlife, and spectacular scenery. If you run into some miserable weather - the cabin will wrap you in it's warmth and comfort, while you enjoy a "mug up".
"Where is that pesky updraft," asks Gregory Golden Eagle. This last weekend, I got cross-eyed at all the retouching and went for a stroll down to the the McIntosh Lake loop trail from the Agricultural Heritage Center, The Lohr McIntosh Farm, but saw the growing sky to the west. The previous shot was from last autumn. eDDie stopped by from his trek and we chewed some fat (no carbs). However, when I swung away from the MAC parking lot, I headed out across the farm when I saw the old windmill against the clouds in this sky and needed to shoot it yet again. What else is left to find? I needed to shoot this sky first. Is there another view against this interesting sky if I crop in tight? We could use some serious clouding around here, PLEASE!
There is always something at McIntosh. I couldn't help myself and had to throw up another sky over the Dickens farm house. I think that sky sets off the windmill at the McIntosh Agricultural Museum. I tried to keep the tones as they were.
This is the McIntosh-Lohr Farm Agricultural Museum on Highway #66, (not the same as Route #66) It goes up to Estes Park and mostly ends @ east Flatteville and Hwy. #66. I dropped my intended walk when I saw this clouding that really popped the windmill.
this is a classic bald eagle hunting scene but something seems wrong?!? instead of water there is grass...when out in the field while shooting i just noticed something diving out of the sky and the fox which was feeding on its kill disappeared in its den and the eagle took the prey, that all happened within a few seconds...
My first successful encounter with a pygmy owl was incredible, yet flawed. Twenty feet off the road and at shoulder height, the owl stood atop the branch of an old snag. It was hunting in a snowstorm. I wasn’t the only visitor to stop. A dozen other passers-by were mesmerized at the flurry of activity so close to the road. It might have been the best morning of a hundred visits to the park but for the fact that I had not driven alone. For on this occasion I had come with a coach and there was no place for the driver to park. A ranger showed up quickly, angrily threatening to ticket everyone involved. The hunting gaze of the owl made me feel twice as threatened. It was a great few moments and dozen snaps but I can’t help thinking of the opportunity lost.

Zebras are several species of African equids (horse family) united by their distinctive black-and-white striped coats. Their stripes come in different patterns, unique to each individual. They are generally social animals that live in small harems to large herds. Unlike their closest relatives, horses and donkeys, zebras have never been truly domesticated. There are three species of zebras: the plains zebra, the mountain zebra and the Grévy's zebra. The plains zebra and the mountain zebra belong to the subgenus Hippotigris, while Grévy's zebra is the sole species of subgenus Dolichohippus. The latter resembles an ass, to which zebras are closely related, while the former two look more horse-like. All three belong to the genus Equus, along with other living equids. The unique stripes of zebras make them one of the animals most familiar to people. They occur in a variety of habitats, such as grasslands, savannas, woodlands, thorny scrublands, mountains, and coastal hills. Various anthropogenic factors have had a severe impact on zebra populations, in particular hunting for skins and habitat destruction. Grévy's zebra and the mountain zebra are endangered. While plains zebras are much more plentiful, one subspecies, the quagga, became extinct in the late 19th century – though there is currently a plan, called the Quagga Project, that aims to breed zebras that are phenotypically similar to the quagga in a process called breeding back.

Owls have feathers with fringes on their edges which help them fly silently through the air when hunting for prey.

Were a number of these hunting over a marsh..this one put on a great show, as it landed on a perch, the ground and eye level flybys 15 ft away.
I often take so many frames that I don't know what to do with them all, so, like this one, they sit unattended on an external hard drive until I pull them up and see something I might not have seen before. Here, in an image taken at Hunting Island in South Carolina, I saw this magnificent cloud structure. What seemed ordinary to me when I took the picture now seemed very inviting, given that I am landlocked in the swamp without much of graphic interest to photograph. By this I mean for my own style of photography; others here do wonderful things with old buildings, macro, and flower pictures. I prefer the wide-open space, like the tidal marsh above.
