Taken over Thanksgiving at Arches National Park in Utah with a Rolleicord Va (with a Xenar f/3.5 75mm lens) that cost me just $50.
These 2 trains passed 30 seconds apart and I used an exposure blend to combine the two frames taken moments apart together. Taken as part of my college photography rush of the railway project, I hope you like it!
I was styling photos for work so I popped this little lady in at the end. At least this way I can pretend I still spend time with my dolls. sadness
Another image of the Juniper Polytrichum Moss from yesterday. Interesting fact - it can be found growing on every continent including Antarctica. It is a evergreen perennial plant.

I want to thank you for taking the time to visit my little space here on Flickr.
Recently made my first shot of this butterfly..
The Juniper Hairstreak (Callophrys gryneus) is a tiny butterfly, and is rather uncommon in our neck of the woods. Markedly smaller than the hairsteaks I'm used to seeing.

HAVE A GREAT 4TH OF JULY!!
I'm finally home and I finally got to go somewhere fun and take photos instead of sit on my couch and cough and sneeze. We were running from rains on the desert and due to the high winds making towing the camp trailer difficult we stopped early at this RV park called The Junipers or Junipers or something. It's right at the base of the mountains where my family goes deer hunting so it was somewhat familiar territory. This was just a night shy of the full moon but was so, so, so lovely.

I want to thank each and everyone who took the time to visit my little space here on Flickr. Have a super day!
The second brood of Juniper Hairstreaks are out. I always look forward to seeing this beauty. Sykesville Quad.
BLM photo: Jeff Clark
Despite the wind and a little rain, it was a nice day at Juniper Dunes for BLM Public Affairs Officer Jeff Clark on Friday, May 7, 2021.
Back in the early days of my photography, I lived across the street from an open expanse where two juniper trees grew side by side.
For a minimum of five years, I would wake up, look outside and if I saw a sunrise I liked, I would photograph it in the same spot with a 35MM Minolta.
Here's a mosaic of my favs from this series of photos.
1. Sunrise, Sunset 17, 2. Sunrise, Sunset 2, 3. Sunrise, Sunset 7, 4. Sunrise, Sunset 9, 5. Sunrise, Sunset 12, 6. Sunrise, Sunset 13, 7. Sunrise, Sunset 15, 8. Sunrise, Sunset 16, 9. Sunrise, Sunset 1, 10. Sunrise, Sunset 20, 11. Sunrise, Sunset 21, 12. Sunrise, Sunset 24, 13. Sunrise, Sunset 27

I participated in a guided hike at Juniper Hills Preserve, owned by the Nature Conservancy. Admittance is by permission only right now.
I haven't seen any Juniper Hairstreaks since April. This one was found on the newly blooming goldenrod.
Also known as mountain juniper, these trees are ubiquitous around here. Starting around Christmas they will be responsible for a month or so of pollen-based misery for many locals.
Animal fat lamps were an important product of prehistory, adding definition to places or low or zero light. A hollowed hand held stone takes a fuel of animal fat illuminated by the flame at the end of a wick. Many wicks were made of juniper twig. Juniper bushes often include their own selection of dried branches; their berries are also a source of sugar and flavor. As trees were removed in the neolithic, juniper fields survived indicating their favor as a source of produce for dry thin soiled landscapes.
Today, juniper berries are relatively essential for the cooking of Guineafowl (Pintade). This recipe cooks like a gamey free range chicken and the bird has been appropriated into agriculture in recent history from north Africa. The prehistoric fowler will have returned to camp with a host of birds - some of which are currently either taboo or banned from hunting - swan and heron being examples. In prehistory one must expect an amount of flexibility over the range of a day's catch, with some birds still cooked today, like goose and duck, and others probably quite surprising or numerous. At what moment in time were juniper berries added to a bird roast?
Today, pepper corns are the preferred taste explosion for a slow cooked 'daube' of wild boar or beef. Tastes change, and a neolithic stew with juniper berries may also have been difficult to refuse.
Here is an overview of prehistoric lamps:
Native to the southwestern United States, Juniper trees (Juniperus osteosperma) that vary in size and shape are often seen on the dry desert floor of Monument Valley in southern Utah. Monument Valley is officially a large area that includes much of the territory surrounding Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park, a Navajo Nation equivalent to a national park.
Late May is a typical time around here for the larches to get frisky. Being monoecious, their friskiness can be taken care of entirely in their own company. "Ah," you say.
Thus, here, you can see two of the female "flowers" on one twig while somewhat behind and below are whole rows of male "flowers."
This was yesterday. Let us hope they found satisfaction.
"Juniper" is what I grew up calling this tree; its Latin name is Larix laricina and other English names include tamarack and hackmatack.
And of course they are not "flowers" by any rigorous botanical system; they are conelets.
