Ubehebe, Death Valley, California
Ubehebe Crater is the largest of several dry maars, craters created when ground water comes in contact with magma, instantaneously turning to steam and exploding. The resulting phreatic explosion rips a crater in the ground, scattering bedrock, cinders, and fine debris about the area. In a wet environment, the resulting maar will fill with water, leaving a circular lake. In Death Valley any maar will remain dry, perhaps collecting a bit of a salt deposit at its bottom.
If you leave the parking lot at Ubehebe and following the hiking trails up the rim (not down into the crater) you will find the fascinating remains of other, smaller maars. Here in the foreground is a section of Little Hebe Crater overlapping an earlier maar dominating the background.

Played with layering leaves on a light box. All sorts of light comes through. Hard to tell which is on top. Love that even the decay becomes beautiful.
This candid portrait of Vida at my desk was literally the second photo I ever took with the 50-year-old Yashica-Mat. Part of the first photo obviously ended up included for good measure.
So, yes, 12 exposures took me the better part of four months to finally burn through, but the next roll of 12 most certainly won't. The results have convinced me that I should probably just live with the processing costs and run a roll through the Yashica-Mat whenever I can swing it.
Oh, and the one good thing the Yashica-Mat not having a light meter is that I've got digital shots used to meter the scene that can tell me when I actually took the photos! Whew! Maybe next time I'll write down the info and keep it with the camera. I'll leave the story of how Vida and I realized we were coworkers as well as Flickr contacts for another day! February 19, 2010.
(Junco hyemalis hyemalis) Munson Meadows, Kelowna, BC. soty17
From Wikipedia: More than most of us will ever want to know....
Subspecies
Either 14 or 15 subspecies are recognized These subspecies are grouped in two or three large or polytypic groups and three or four small or monotypic ones, all depending on the authority. These groups were formerly considered separate species, but they interbreed extensively in areas of contact. Birders trying to identify subspecies are advised to consult detailed identification references.
Slate-colored group
Slate-colored dark-eyed junco (J. h. hyemalis)
Slate-colored dark-eyed junco (J. h. hyemalis) - Alaska, across Canada from Newfoundland & Labrador to British Columbia, northeast U.S. from Massachusetts to Minnesota, northwest Mexico from Baja California to Chihuahua, & Gulf Coast states
Carolina dark-eyed junco (J. h. carolinensis) - Appalachian Mountains from northwest West Virgina & western Maryland south to northern Georgia
Cassiar dark-eyed junco (J. h. cismontanus; possibly a slate-colored dark-eyed junco (J. h. hyemalis) x Oregon dark-eyed junco (J. h. oreganus) hybrid - Yukon, British Columbia, & Alberta south through Great Plains down toward north-central Mexico
These two or three subspecies have dark slate-gray heads, breasts and upperparts. Females are brownish-gray, sometimes with reddish-brown flanks.[10] They breed in the North American boreal forests from Alaska to Newfoundland and south to the Appalachian Mountains, wintering throughout most of the United States. They are relatively common across their range.
White-winged group
white-winged dark-eyed junco (J. h. aikeni)
This subspecies has a medium-gray head, breast, and upperparts with white wing bars. Females are washed brownish. It has more white in the tail than the other 14 subspecies. It is a common endemic breeder in the Black Hills of South Dakota, Wyoming, Nebraska, and Montana, and winters south to northeastern New Mexico.
Oregon or brown-backed group
Oregon/brown-backed group dark-eyed junco (may be any one of eight subspecies )
• Montana dark-eyed junco (J. h. montanus) - Interior British Columbia, Alberta, eastern Washington, northeast Oregon, Idaho, Montana, & Wyoming
• Nevada dark-eyed junco (J. h. mutabilis) - Great Basin
• Oregon dark-eyed junco (J. h. oreganus) - Coastal southeast Alaska to central British Columbia
• Point Pinos dark-eyed junco (J. h. pinosus) - Coastal California (Santa Barbara to Del Norte County)
• Laguna Hanson dark-eyed junco (J. h. pontilis) - Mountains of northern Baja California (Sierra Juarez)
• Shufeldt's dark-eyed junco (J. h. shufeldti) - West slopes of coastal mountains from western Oregon to southwest British Columbia
• Thurber's dark-eyed junco (J. h. thurberi) - Interior California (San Bernardino to Modoc County)
• Townsend's dark-eyed junco (J. h. townsendi) - Mountains of northern Baja California (San Pedro Martir)
These eight subspecies have blackish-gray heads and breasts with brown backs and wings and reddish flanks, tending toward duller and paler plumage in the inland and southern parts of its range.
Oregon dark-eyed juncos are also less commonly known as brown-backed dark-eyed juncos. This is the most common subspecies group in the West, breeding in the Pacific Coast Ranges from southeastern Alaska to extreme northern Baja California and wintering to the Great Plains and northern Sonora. An unresolved debate exists as to whether this large and distinct subspecies group is actually a separate species with eight (or nine, see below) subspecies of its own.[citation needed]
Pink-sided dark-eyed junco (J. h. mearnsi)
Pink-sided group
pink-sided dark-eyed junco (J. h. mearnsi)
Sometimes considered a ninth subspecies in the Oregon/brown-backed group, this subspecies has a lighter gray head and breast than the eight Oregon/brown-backed dark-eyed juncos, with contrasting dark lores. The back and wings are brown. It has a pinkish-cinnamon color that is richer and covers more of the flanks and breast than in the eight Oregon/brown-backed dark-eyed juncos. It breeds in the northern Rocky Mountains from southern Alberta to eastern Idaho and western Wyoming and winters in central Idaho and nearby Montana and from southwestern South Dakota, southern Wyoming, and northern Utah to northern Sonora and Chihuahua.
Gray-headed dark-eyed junco (J. h. caniceps)
Gray-headed group
gray-headed dark-eyed junco (J. h. caniceps)
This subspecies is essentially rather light gray on top with a rusty back. It breeds in the southern Rocky Mountains from Colorado to central Arizona and New Mexico, and winters into northern Mexico.
Red-backed group
red-backed dark-eyed junco (J. h. dorsalis)
Sometimes included with the gray-headed dark-eyed junco proper as part of the gray-headed group, this subspecies differs from it in having a more silvery bill[11] with a dark-colored upper mandible and a light-colored lower mandible, a variable amount of rust on the wings, and pale underparts. This makes it similar to the yellow-eyed junco (Junco phaeonotus), except for the dark eyes. It is found in the southern mountains of Arizona and New Mexico. It does not overlap with the yellow-eyed junco in its breeding range.
Joshua Tree National Park, California
This area of the park is an overlap zone between the Mojave and Sonora deserts. Here plants such as the Mojave Yucca (two of which dominate the frame) mingle with more typically Sonora flora such as the cholla cactus (snuggling against the yucca).
Camera Mamiya RB67, film Rollei RPX 400, dev in Compard R09 1:25 for 12 min. I tested my old Mamiya RB67 (6x7), the bottom part of the pictures turned black? Must look into what caused this problem ?!
Just after sunrise at Colorado's Echo Lake. The lake sits at 10,600 feet at the base of Mount Evans. A two frame pano.

Okavango Delta
Botswana
Southern Africa
This sub adult male lion was one of two brothers that hung out together.
Lions are commonly seen in most parts of Botswana. Even though lions don't like water, sightings of lions in the northern Okavango Delta are spectacular. The lions have learned to thrive there - mainly due to the large buffalo population.
The Lions of Botswana have torn up the rule book as we know it. Lions don't like water, lions seldom, if ever, hunt elephants, hippos and lions need water to survive - these are some of the ideas that we have learnt over the years. In Botswana lions take to the water regularly, lions do hunt elephant and hippo and in some areas of the country lions can go for months without drinking water.
Home ranges of the lions vary in size for the same reasons - availability of food. In the arid areas the home ranges will be much larger and a great deal of overlapping with neighboring prides occurs.
Lions in the Okavango Delta are adept at negotiating the channels and floodplains in order to hunt. Prey moves between the islands and lions have to cross the water to follow. Because of this water activity the front quarters of the Okavango Delta lions are more developed than those of other lions. From buffalo to hippo and even adult elephant. there are prides that have adapted to preying on all.
