Diana's Grove is a tranquil wooded area situated near to Blair Castle within the grounds of Atholl Estates. Diana's Grove is named after the Roman Goddess of Hunting. Blair Castle is the ancestral home of the Dukes of Atholl, known as the 'Planting Dukes' in the 18th & 19th centuries, by 1830 the family had planted over 27 million trees within the Atholl Glens.
Took this shot in Longview, WA last year. I was actually back here today, dropping off an empty trailer at Keystone Paper. We haul large rolls of paper to companies that use it to make corrugated cardboard boxes. (8 rolls weight over 40,000 LBS, which is enough to fill our 53' trailers.) When trees are logged, places like this is where they start the process of becoming all the many things we use wood for.

The driver taking forward the 12.44pm Carlisle Yard - Chirk Kronospan log train (6J37), waits patiently for the arriving driver to collect his belongings from the cab at Warrington's Bank Quay station. Colas unit 56105 is doing the honours.
An image not previously uploaded but one I thought deserved a run-out, not least for die-hard 'Grid' fans. This was one of the last railway shots I took with the part-frame EOS 7D before upgrading to the full-frame 5D, a move I've never regretted (it's still my main camera with no current plans to replace).
I had little luck processing this one at the time, but today's software has rendered it more than passable - technically if not artistically.

Built sometime around 1900 this log barn was used to shelter the horses that pull the stagecoach from Penticton to Princeton, British Columbia. This was the first stop after the stagecoach left Penticton and the passengers would stay in the hotel across the road. It took four days to travel the 120 km (75 miles) to Princeton. Today, the trip takes about an 1 hour 15 minutes.

Captain's log, stardate 6102.1. While investigating a distress call from a star cluster in the Protari system our ship, the U.S.S. Constitution and its crew, were pulled into a mysterious tractor beam. All data shows that we've somehow been transported to another dimension.
Myself, Captain Jezebel Kraai along with Science Officer Cidni Starchild, Chief Engineer Harper Blackwood, and Lieutenant Moran have set foot on what appears to be a post apocalyptic world. The surface appears to be like our own Earth and so far we're reading no life forms.
Could this be Earth and could we have somehow traveled back in time? Is this the year 2231, just after the first nuclear strikes of World War III? I will update when we have more data. Kraai out.
I appreciate these wonderful ladies and fellow artist for helping me out on this one. It's been a long time coming as this shot was actually taken this past May.
I was sort of baffled about what I wanted to do with this capture then decided to do a fantasy composite with it. So this is my first try at this sort of thing. I hope you guys find it at least adequate. Thanks!♥
This the 4th capure I inducted to the In Good Company Erotica Gallery for their October show.
The gallery is owned and operated by my friend Marcus Strong. Thank you so much Marcus for the oppotunity.♥
Captain's logs star date Sept 2022.- winding through route 99 and making another stop for eye popping scenery. No wonder the 7 hour trip took 13 hours.
Another way of seeing the countryside is using these log rafts. I think that the canoes were a little better though - rather more maneuverable through the rapids
Finnish Sauna
Sauna finlandais : 30 mn dans la vapeur à 90°C du sauna, puis quelques secondes dans la rivière à travers un trou dans la glace (... en bas à droite).
Le plus dur : descendre pieds nus (... le reste aussi quasiment ...) jusqu'à la rivière sur une pente glacée ...
I never paid much attention to this old log barn until now, but it stands out beautifully against the frosty trees. I wonder why it was built using vertical logs. Every year we have a few days when heavy fog freezes, creating beautiful frosty scenery.
Silver birch deadfall caught on the rocks. A focus stack of three images.
PLEASE: Do not post any comment graphics, they will be deleted. See info in my bio.
Another shot from Lost Maples SP... the tree fell at some point and has become a welcoming host for the moss growing here.

A Portland and Western train sits crewless on the siding at Linton, just a few miles west of Portland along the Columbia River. Behind the lead GP39-2 is a long cut of log flatcars.
