A scene from Botswana.
It was playing in the mud/water, or may be it waking a bath. It tried to 'hide' as our boat approached. I thought that was very cute =)
An early morning walk on Pismo Beach. Someone was racing a radio controlled car across the beach, making interesting patterns on the sand.

My girl has advised me in her own polite yet firm way to mix up my uploads a bit. I have a feeling this image might be a step too far, perhaps you will give me your thoughts.
At the end of the day its just a bit of fun and a nod to the more unique beings out there :-)

Ever get that excited feeling before a shoot and your vision is blurred, then the adrenalin kicks in and you focus on the priorities?
I took this before the event started when I noticed that the plans for the night had to be changed... this is how I felt ;)
Also, was trying out Melmif's awesome lens before I got to spend a whole night with it... Thanks once again mel!

My south facing windows look out on the Chugach Mountain Range. Little by little my beautiful view has been spoiled by the smoke from forest fires. This afternoon I looked out to see the fire sweeping through yet another portion of the mountain range. The winds are whipping in from the southeast - and yet the fire is moving up the mountains to the east. We are several miles from the fire, with the Tazlina River between us and the flames. All we can do is hope for rain - until then our lungs and sinuses are really suffering.

This was one of those evenings where there was mist and fog around. I was hoping for a nice clear sunset but it all turned a bit muddy. I suppose on the plus side, it gave some interest in the sky. The sun glowed orange as it set behind a bank of fog. Shot vertical to include some of the blue sky above the fog. 3 bracketed shots taken on a tripod for this. Merged in CS6. You could say this shot has that painterly feel to it.
One of my photographic goals has been to take pictures of individual snowflakes. This has been a particularly difficult goal to achieve due to a number of reasons. First, the temperature and weather conditions need to be JUST right to create visible snowflakes, worthy of photographing (this is not often). Second, it doesn't snow every day (even if it has snowed often). And third, most of the times it has snowed, it was during a time that I could not get out with my camera. Either it was night time, during school hours, when I had an appointment, or when I was sick (and I was sick for six weeks straight this year, so this was often). I figured I would just have to wait until next year to get the shots I so desired. But winter wasn't done with us yet, even if it was the first day of spring! (After all, I was born in a blizzard at the end of March!) A friend of mine out in West Jersey posted a picture on Facebook of an individual snowflake which got me ALL EXCITED!!! I saw her picture during the school day and could not WAIT to get home to my camera and these snowflakes that seemed to be so well-formed! I just had to hope the temperature and conditions were the same by me, after school. I finally got home, and was THRILLED to see they were! My sister and I had a great time looking at and photographing these snowflakes! I'm sure we looked ridiculous sitting in the snow on our front lawn with blankets and towels. I was using a macro lens. The lens has a VERY narrow depth of field. So, if the flakes weren't completely flat and parallel with my lens, only part of the flake would be in focus. This was frustrating. And despite using a macro lens, it was still very difficult to get the flakes in focus. These that I am posting were the best of the crop. More pictures to come! I'll post a few each day. I'm not thrilled with the red background, but maybe someday I can figure out how to change the color in Lightroom.
Happy 19th birthday to me :D
This is soooo old. Like from two years ago. It was one of the first selfies I ever took. So I had no idea how to set focus and whatever and blahblah. But last weekend I went on a processing spree and re-edited a bunch of old pictures. So I have a lot to post I guess.
Anyways. I've had a busy last couple of days! Valentine's Day here was yesterday and that was great :D today is my birthday, and tomorrow 9 months anniversary with Will. Plus a LOT to study, results in hardly any time for Flickr.
So I'll catch up with your streams soon!
Are you kidding me? Can't even remember how long it had been since I'd even heard of Explore lol...

View on black please!
Well, after giving you a brief break from my Paris photos, we're back again with the Eiffel Tower. I think this is actually the third photo I've posted of the Iron Lady, but it's because she's simply so photogenic. And it's not like I haven't made each of the photos of her completely different!
Every hour on the hour at night (until just after 01:00) the Eiffel Tower sparkles for 5 minutes. This used to be ten minutes, but a few years ago, they cut this in half to save energy and become more green. I congratulate them for this. What I didn't realise until I saw this photo, is that the sparkling lights are blue, so when you capture the event using a long exposure, the tower ends up a different colour.
This night shot looks better on black (press L) and this make the beautiful iconic tower stand out even more. I was away this weekend, so I'll try and catch up on all your photos this week. I'm also away again this Thursday, so sorry if my comments and favourites are a bit sparse.
Edit:
Sorry if I've just faved your photo, but not left a comment; it's all I've got time for at the minute and I figured it would be better than nothing at all. If I get more time, I'll go round again and add some comments in.
No images in comments please.
