A couple bull elk butt heads, more in play than with serious intent. The bull with the larger rack had a definite advantage. Many of his tines got thru the smaller rack to hit the other's head. But not enough to get them to quit. Was a delight watching their tussle.

Cowpea Aphid (Aphis craccivora)
Just the one spotted on a Jade Flower today.
Happy Beautiful Bug Butt Thursday.
We had a great time on our Coyote Buttes Workshop this past week. Not only did we see some spectacular scenery, but we were treated to great sunrises & sunsets each day we went out! That almost never happens. Here's a shot of one of the workshop participants near the Wave in North Coyote Buttes. The reflected light and color in this channel definitely doesn't look real, but if you've been here, you know how amazing can be at the right time of day.
Our park bench is not really comfortable in the summer but it can be completely assured you will get a COLD butt if you sit on it now. :)
The Butt of Lewis is the most northerly point of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides. The headland, which lies in the North Atlantic, is frequently battered by heavy swells and storms and is marked by the Butt of Lewis Lighthouse. The nearest populated area is the village of Eoropie, about 1 mile to the south.
Rather stormy at the Butt of Lewis but the light was poor when I got there but it shows the big waves hitting land

Giant house spider - Eratigena atrica
.....only 9 days until Arachtober starts. A group where you post pictures of spiders or spider webs in the month of October. It is interesting and fun!
I had a lovely 5 minute photo-session with this guy and his shadow today. I am appreciating the new kitchen worktop in a new way now!!
The Dickies - Gigantor
This is officially the designated makeshift ashtray at the most unofficial and the most inarguably makeshift designated smoking area on the designated premises of my official place of employment.
And my co-workers and I refer to it as heaven.
Sad Story but True Story.
Good stuff.
Good times.
Bad habits.
Addendum: the most entertaining people I work with attend this spot, we're all like the high school kids that smoked right outside the fence and I love it that way.
I have to confess. I haven't taken a photo in the last six weeks. No time. It's amazing how fast my life got sucked back into the world of the job. Fortunately, I do have a healthy archive of photos, and with a little fiddle faddling I can usually cobble something together. This is a picture of a new strand of almond trees. The orchard runs right up to the Sutter Buttes. Named after John Sutter, the buttes are often referred to as, the world's smallest mountain range.
California Central Valley
One thing I've learned about photography, sometimes you have to go off of your gut feelings. Just basically saying, you know what, I'm going out into the field regardless of the outcome. This particular outing with my buddy Paul Rojas, we had plans on heading to central Utah. This was a trip that we had planned months in advance, but had to change our plans at the VERY last minute due to horrible weather conditions in the area. We changed our plans and decided to head Trona Pinnacles.
Here's where the adventure begins. I've driven in adverse conditions before, but this....this was some other level stuff. The minute I hit the park boundary of Death Valley heading to Trona, it was a torrential downpour. The roads were starting to flood the further into the valley I went. I was hydroplaning all over the place. I had my windshield wipers going at the highest speed and it wasn't doing a damn thing. At this point I contemplated turning around several times, and starting questioning myself, what the hell am I doing driving in the middle of the desert, in a storm, at 3am? Who does that? And to further clarify my statements about the torrential rain, this was the weekend that Death Valley got hit with all the flash floods.
By time I arrived at Trona, my brain was completely fried from all the white knuckle driving I had been doing for the past 2 1/2 hours. When it was all said and done, In the end we were blessed with a Toyota 4 Runner stuck in clay/mud(Paul and I playing in the mud AGAIN...another story) and absolutely killer conditions. It was worth all the stress and tight butt cheeks....would do it again? Yes, in a heartbeat!
Peace and Love
This is a pretty serious crop that was used to simplify the image, and although it is a a butt shot, I love the-key characteristic. Some type of Yellowlegs I am guessing, not sure which, but to me it matters not.
