(© 2010 PrÃamo Melo) Angico's trail is not only about history, heat and sweat. A gorgeous beach with crystal water is available at the Sergipe's side of the São Francisco river. Whilst other tourists were having a great time swimming in the natural pool, I was fascinated about photographing the lonely boat pictured above and below, trying many different compositions with it. My brother was like: Is he crazy? What's the deal about the boat :-) ? Funny, the way we see the world changes dramatically after we allow photography in our lives, and this is just great, isn't it :-) ?
PS: The great sky color and the beautiful crystal water are due to a polarizing filter! The great balance between sky and foreground elements was possible due to the graduated neutral density filter. Filters... filters... filters... a must-have in the landscape-photographer bag!

I saw these two vapor trails that the planes have left behind and couldn't resist so I took a photo of it.
This is part of the walking trail I take through the woods close to work. There is a marsh to the right (see the cattails) and once you cross the bridge, you get to the edge of the lake - I had posted pictures of this lake both frozen and thawing a few months back.
Note the grass is only mowed close to the walking trail - further out the field is left in its more natural state.
Trail is off the Mountain Loop Highway a bit north of the one time mining town of Monte Christo.
Photo from along the old logging road that now is used as a trail allowing hikers to go up one route and down another on the lower portion of this hike.
The site of the former Cynonville station. The platforms have been preserved, and are now used for picnic tables and benches.
We walked the Pontrhydyfen to Cynonville section of the popular cycle trail, which follows a disused railway line through the valley.
Oak tree on the Southwell Trail - October 2018. It is a great tree which I pass nearly everyday & always good value for a few shots when the light and conditions are right.
- www.kevin-palmer.com - On a rare warm winter day, I went for a hike on the Soldier Ridge Trail on the edge of Sheridan. The parts of the trail that weren't covered in snow were very muddy.

A quiet trail though old-growth redwood groves.
One of my loose goals on this trip to the Redwood National and State Parks was to scout a bit. This was such a new area to me that I did not have illusions about finding the very best subjects right away, and I regard a first visit like this one as being the start of a longer photographic relationship with the place. In other words, I wanted to photographer then and there, but I also wanted to start to know the place, with an eye to future return visits.
With that in mind I visited four of the parks that comprise the larger state and national park collective. Time will tell if my initial impressions are correct, but each park seems to have a different and somewhat individual character. My last stop in the area, on the morning when I began my drive to a locations further south, was the Prairie Creek State Park. The great old-growth redwood trees are impressive wherever you find them, but it seemed to me that here they were even more so. After photographing some alder trees along a roadway, I moved on and selected a trail to hike, making the choice based more on hunch than anything else. I wandered slowly up a canyon filled with the giant trees as broken clouds moved changing light across the scene.

These buildings and wagons were moved from thier original locations across the Bighorn Basin to The Old Trail Town collection in Cody Wyoming by archaeologist and historian, Bob Edgar. The buildings date from 1879 to 1901 and represent the history of Northwestern Wyoming. Included in the collection are original cabins used by Old West outlaws Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid; a Wyoming saloon frequented by Cassidy's "Hole-in-the-Wall Gang", as well as the the log cabin home of "Curley" a Crow Indian army scout who helped guide Lt Col. George A. Custer and the U.S. 7th Cavalry to the battle of the Little Big Horn in 1876. Currently the collection includes 26 historic buildings, a graveyard and many wagons and other artifacts. Old Trail Town exists today as a memorial to the uniquely American experience known throughout the world as "the Old West".
During the 1960's Bob watched as some of old historical buildings of the Big Horn Basin disappeared from the landscape. He decided one way to save some of the bulldings were to gather them together into one collection. Starting in 1967 Bob moved 26 historic structures to "Old Trail Town"which is located in an area where Buffalo Bill and his associates had chosen for the first town site of "Cody City" in 1895. He also collected and relocated hundreds of artifacts such as wagons; farm equipment, house furnishings; etc. to the collection.
This shot is from my second hike of the Skyline Trail in the Cape Breton Highlands of Nova Scotia. I did it once in March of 2016 and then again on the 4th of July of 2016. This was the best light I got out of the two trips. The Skyline Trail is a hiking trail that leads to this beautiful overlook of the The Cabot Trail (scenic road) winding through the highlands.
