We decided to visit the church we like a lot on the day before Christmas. It was pretty cold and sunny outside. Some minutes of photography and that's it, we want a cup of hot tea and warm our hands up. We were kindly invited to the church, where had an interesting conversation to a good key keeper. The church, that is lost in the woods, has not many visitors as we know. So every Christian is welcomed here...

A local guard (the protection) who was more than happy to pose by the beautiful mountainous landscape we were hiking through.
I had been watching the weather reports for Yosemite Valley for over a week in anticipation of a Winter Storm that was due to arrive last Wednesday night. I had been hoping for an opportunity to drive up to the park and grab a shot of a clearing rainstorm with low clouds scattered across the valley floor. I've shot from the tunnel several times, but I have never been able to get a shot with steamy low clouds rolling through the trees.
So early last Thursday morning, I made what was going to be a 12 hour, 3 tank full gamble to make a one day dash up to the park trying to make it to the tunnel just as a break in the clouds was due to arrive. I drove through scattered rain showers on my way up hwy 99, and by the time I arrived in Oakhurst at 1:30, low clouds had moved in over the Sierras and it looked like I might have wasted an entire day trying to get my shot. But after driving up hwy 140 for a while, the clouds broke up and suddenly I began to worry that ALL of the clouds would be gone and I would be left with just another cloudless afternoon up at the tunnel.
But as I entered the park, the low clouds moved in again and it began to rain in earnest. As I arrived at the tunnel, there was a small but determined group of photographers camped out hoping that the clouds would lift and that the rain would let up. I took a spin around the park just to pass the time, and by the time I had returned, the rain had stopped, the clouds were breaking up, and there was only one photographer left. And best of all...my low clouds were scattered across the valley floor! The lone photographer (Dave) and I shot for about 90 minutes straight before it started raining again. People came and went, but as it began to pour and the clouds moved in again, I was the last photographer to head back to my car. The above shot was taken in the pouring rain just as the rain clouds began to turn orange behind me. I kept shooting as the end of the valley lit up in a bright topaz blue before all the light was gone.
After stopping to see some friends of mine in Mariposa, it was time for the long drive back, which was not without its own adventures. I hit some serious fog just outside of Bakersfield and you literally couldn't see two feet in front of the car. After the fog broke up, I made it through the grapevine only to discover that the entire Southbound 5 freeway was closed due to construction and had to take a detour through downtown LA. I didn't get home until 1:30 AM. All in all, a very crazy day and a bit of a gamble...but I will definitely be trying that again.
During the autumn the deer "rut" (breeding season) takes place. The Red stags and Fallow bucks compete for females.
The males roar, bark and clash antlers to fight off rivals and attract as many females as possible.
Do not touch, feed or photograph the deer at close range.
The above was extracted from the Richmond Park website.
I shot this deer before the morning mist had cleared and the deer's breath formed clouds around it.

Another image from a summer trip up to the North Cascades. I really was hoping for a few colorful sunsrises/ sets, but only found a bit of color. No matter, it was great to be back in one of my favorite ranges in the lower 48's.

Temple Concord's roots reach back over one hundred years to the first Jewish organization in this area. The original Jewish settlers in Binghamton organized the Hebrew Benevolent Society, founded in 1862. Subsequently, they created a number of Jewish organizations and religious societies. Temple Concord was incorporated in November, 1950, and in February 1951 regular services were instituted in the Kilmer Mansion. The historic mansion now houses our Hebrew and Judaic schools as well as a library.
Some moments are wonderful because they come and go in a flash. The changing sky, a wind that ripples the water, a passing cloud, a fish that jumps and is gone, or the quiet sound of your paddle tipping the surface of an alpine lake. This great spot in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California is near 7,000 feet and if you catch a trout great but you will treasure you day for years to come. Get out in nature even if just to step outside and breath some fresh air.

By the time the rite was over Carter knew that he was in no region whose place could be told by earth’s geographers, and in no age whose date history could fix. For the nature of what was happening was not wholly unfamiliar to him. There were hints of it in the cryptical Pnakotic fragments, and a whole chapter in the forbidden Necronomicon of the mad Arab Abdul Alhazred had taken on significance when he had deciphered the designs graven on the Silver Key. A gate had been unlocked—not indeed the Ultimate Gate, but one leading from earth and time to that extension of earth which is outside time, and from which in turn the Ultimate Gate leads fearsomely and perilously to the Last Void which is outside all earths, all universes, and all matter.
There would be a Guide—and a very terrible one; a Guide who had been an entity of earth millions of years before, when man was undreamed of, and when forgotten shapes moved on a steaming planet building strange cities among whose last, crumbling ruins the earliest mammals were to play. Carter remembered what the monstrous Necronomicon had vaguely and disconcertingly adumbrated concerning that Guide.
“And while there are those,” the mad Arab had written, “who have dared to seek glimpses beyond the Veil, and to accept HIM as a Guide, they would have been more prudent had they avoided commerce with HIM; for it is written in the Book of Thoth how terrific is the price of a single glimpse. Nor may those who pass ever return, for in the Vastnesses transcending our world are Shapes of darkness that seize and bind. The Affair that shambleth about in the night, the Evil that defieth the Elder Sign, the Herd that stand watch at the secret portal each tomb is known to have, and that thrive on that which groweth out of the tenants within—all these Blacknesses are lesser than HE Who guardeth the Gateway; HE Who will guide the rash one beyond all the worlds into the Abyss of unnamable Devourers. For HE is’UMR AT-TAWIL, the Most Ancient One, which the scribe rendereth as THE PROLONGED OF LIFE.”
Through the Gates of the Silver Key - By H. P. Lovecraft

The jaguar, Panthera onca, is a big cat, a feline in the Panthera genus, and is the only Panthera species found in the Americas. The jaguar is the third-largest feline after the tiger and the lion, and the largest in the Western Hemisphere.
Unfortunately, the jaguar is a near threatened species and its numbers are declining. Threats include loss and fragmentation of habitat.
This one is a wild old male and he was resting in a river bank at Rio Cuibá, Mato Grosso (Pantanal National Park). Very difficult light conditions, handheld and taken from a little boat.

This is located in Bankhead National Forest and is the outflow of Caney Creek Falls. This is one of the most beautiful places I've ever been. Photos of the Falls will follow.
UPDATE: (Aug. 20, 2006) - I submitted this photo, along with two others, to Outdoor Photographer Magazine's online editor and it was selected to be displayed on their site in the Alabama section. You can see it here:

A shot from earlier this summer while up north of the Muskokas of a Black Throated Blue Warbler. This little guy made a brief appearance while I was out on a morning walk and stuck around long enough to snap off this one shot. Luckily for me it turned out to be a decent one because I never saw this fellow again the rest of the week.
Top left Shrewsbury School was founded by Edward VI in 1552 following the dissolution of two ecclesiastical colleges in the town. In its original incarnation the school was sited not outside the loop of the River Severn as it is today, but within its boundary, where it occupied a number of black and white houses.
In marked contrast to this prosperity Shrewsbury’s fortunes were reversed during the civil war period and eighteenth century, with a decrease in pupil numbers. It was not until 1798 and the accession of headmaster Samuel Butler that Shrewsbury’s fortunes were revived. Butler, a renowned classical scholar, founded the classical reputation of the school; although this did not suit a certain pupil named Charles Darwin,
Development of the school site continued throughout the twentieth-century with a boathouse, new library and series of boarding houses amongst the many additions.
The first Pengwern Boathouse was jointly rented with Shrewsbury School on the site of the present school boathouse. The name Pengwern was chosen as a Shrewsbury Rowing Club then existed, but was short-lived, being last recorded in 1876.
The present site of Pengwern's clubhouse was purchased in 1880. The following year a new 3-storey "half-timbered" clubhouse was completed, still the centre part of the existing building, generally accepted as being virtually unrivalled architecturally, and having a superb position opposite the Quarry Park the site of the famous Shrewsbury Flower Show.

I played with this way to long, and now I'm not sure I even like it anymore..;) I finally got in to see the doctor about my toe and he said what everyone said about just buddy tape. I told him that's what everybody said..:) He just laughed..;) I picked up my new hearing aids while I was there. I damaged my ears with canon fire. No one ever said anything about earplugs when I was in the military. It takes longer than I would have thought to get use to them.
It is quite ironic that my Solitude, the flickering loneliness within, seeks and finds lasting camaraderie amongst fleeting elements of the mute canvas outside.

After a slow start Autumn shooting has finally picked up for me. I spent two days this past weekend in the Gorge and they proved to the most productive for me in a long time. I'll probaby be posting a few images in the next week or so. Just hope everyone's not sick of fall colors by then---- I won't!
