The rainy season has begun in Alaska, as our state begins its transition from summer to autumn. Here and there the last of the fireweed blossoms cling to their stalks in a desperate move to stay alive just one more day before succumbing to their inevitable fate. All too soon our boreal forest will be devoid of color, and we will once again find ourselves locked in a monochromatic world until next spring.

As of today, it has been exactly 74 days since our last significant snowfall. This has been one of the shortest summers I have experienced in this part of Alaska.

Photo posted for Sliders Sunday - Processed to the MAX! HSS!

This image shows what it looks like each morning, when Doc trudges out at around eight AM to fill the bird feeders. Doc must be constantly aware of his surroundings, as we currently have several moose, and a few coyotes' roaming through the forest. We are hoping that most of the bears are denned up for the winter - but there is always a straggler or two still looking for their winter home.

I used several processes to create this "Doc" image - starting with Wombo, and then adding my own touches with other photo software I have in my collection.

Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms out there!

This was a utility/storage area in a downtown Seattle hotel, turned greenish by fluorescent lighting.

Eight degrees, and we are once again fogged in. Looking out my cabin window, the world looks back at me in black and white. Since I've had enough of my colorless world - I turned to my photoshop tools to enhance my bleak landscape.
