This morning a young doe was sipping water from our stock tank, there is also a young buck that comes around.
Took a long hike through the woods at Newcomb SUNY campus. Sooooo many fungi of all types, shapes and colors
A railroad track converted to a path in Topsfield, Massachusetts in the early evening. This is the newest portion of the trail, and it is still a bit of a work in progress, as evidenced by the narrowing of the trail in the distance.
The Aucilla Sinks trail is a portion of the Florida National Scenic Trail. It's gets its name from the Aucilla River, which is not a traditional river at all in this area but instead a series of flowing sinkholes and river rises, with the river constantly disappearing and reappearing above the Earth's surface. A karst landscape covered with a variety of pine and tropical vegetation add character to this unique trail. With its interesting landscape and water features this section of trail would likely be one of the more popular in Florida if not for its extremely remote location off US98 between Tallahassee and Perry, FL.
Hidden Lake Overlook Trail is one of the busiest view trails in Glacier Park
Three miles, 4.8 km, (round trip) with an elevation gain of 460 feet The trail starts at over 6,500 feet. The boardwalk steps are steep. It is a heavily traveled trail. The altitude can alter how easy you find this trail. The view from up there is amazing.
At each bend In the trail there is another view of so many beautiful Trilliums.
Enjoy your day Flickr friends !
My first attempt at star trails. This is a shot I took at my parents place in Connecticut over the Christmas break. It’s two long exposures stacked together using photoshop. I definitely would like to do a whole lot more of this type of photography. Besides freezing in the cold on a winter’s night with my dad taking these photos, it was really cool to see the stars again. For those of you who live in the city, you know it’s very rare that you see so many stars at night. The city lights dominate over all in the night sky. Ok folks I hope you’ve all have had a great weekend and I’ll be visiting your photostreams very soon!

Headed out with Mike to a secret location known only to ourselves and Batman located atop the Entertainment Centre car park. Luckily the stair access to the elevator shaft was open and we got a great high level perspective of the city.
We were hoping for some nice car light trails but the level of traffic was far lower than we expected and struggled on that basis.
This is quite a complicated shot despite the simple appearance.
I processed 6 exposures setting the white balance to neutralise the strong colour cast of the street lighs. I stacked them to get the light trails.
I then processed a single frame with white balance set for the skyline and sky.
I used a colour selection to mask out the roadway and bits affected by the street lights.This allowed me to blend the two exposures together.
I then applied some perspective correction in CS as I was shooting at a bit of an angl and therefore the buildings were all falling over.
A bit of NIK later and here you have it.
A great morning out with Mike. Note to anyone else contemplating this location, the car park resets its fees at 6am every morning so if you enter before then, you will end up payin a bit more than expected for parking.

I had to stop my mountain bike ride to get a photo of this scene. I loved the cool reflected light down in the shadows of the hills against the warm sunset sky. Plus, how awesome is the wall of ice opposite the trail? I think it gives the scene decent balance.

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.

The Apache Trail in Arizona was a stagecoach trail that ran through the Superstition Mountains. It was named the Apache Trail after the Apache Indians who originally used this trail to move through the Superstition Mountains.
The current Apache Trail links Apache Junction (33.4152°N 111.5807°W) at the edge of the Greater Phoenix area with Theodore Roosevelt Lake (33.6725°N 111.1531°W), through the Superstition Mountains and the Tonto National Forest.
Today, the majority of Apache Trail remains unpaved, turning into a dirt road a few miles up from Tortilla Flat, and continuing as such for nearly the full remainder of its length. The section east of Apache Junction is known officially as State Route 88. It is also the main traffic corridor through Apache Junction, turning into Main Street as the road passes into Mesa, and regains the Apache name by becoming Apache Boulevard in Tempe, ending at Mill Avenue. Prior to the completion of the Superstition Freeway in 1992, the Apache Junction portion of the Apache Trail was part of US Highway 60, which was rerouted to the Superstition Freeway once it was completed.
The Trail winds steeply through 40 miles (64 km) of rugged desert mountains, past deep reservoir lakes like Canyon Lake and Apache Lake. The narrow, winding road is unpaved from just east of the town of Tortilla Flat to Roosevelt Dam; there are steep cliff drops and little in the way of safety barriers. The trail requires caution when driving and it is not recommended for large RVs, SUVs, or caravans. Some large RV rental companies in the US do not allow their vehicles to be taken on this route.

Theodore Roosevelt Lake (usually called Roosevelt Lake, sometimes Lake Roosevelt) is a large reservoir formed by Theodore Roosevelt Dam on the Salt River in Arizona as part of the Salt River Project (SRP). Located roughly 80 miles (130 km) northeast of Phoenix in the Salt River Valley, Theodore Roosevelt is the largest lake or reservoir located entirely within the state of Arizona (Lake Mead and Lake Powell are larger but both are located partially within the neighboring states of Nevada and Utah respectively). Both the reservoir and the masonry dam that created it, Roosevelt Dam, were named for U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt who dedicated the dam himself in March 1911. Roosevelt Lake is a popular recreation destination within the Tonto National Forest; the facilities located at this lake are managed by that authority.
Roosevelt Lake is the oldest of the six reservoirs constructed and operated by the Salt River Project. It also has the largest storage capacity of the SRP lakes with the ability to store 1,653,043 acre feet (2.039 km3) of water when the conservation limit of Roosevelt Dam is reached. When the dam is in flood-control mode, the lake can store 2,910,200 acre⋅ft (3.590 km3) of water; however, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers requires all water over the conservation limit to be released from the lake within 20 days.
Roosevelt Lake is located in central Arizona almost entirely within Gila County although a small portion lies in Maricopa County. Located about 4 miles (6 km) upstream from Apache Lake (the next SRP reservoir on the Salt River), Roosevelt Lake occupies about 10 miles (16 km) of the original Salt River riverbed and also extends for about 8 miles (13 km) up Tonto Creek, a significant tributary of the Salt with its headwaters along the Mogollon Rim. The lake covers much of the southern portion of the Tonto Basin, a low-lying area between the Sierra Ancha Mountains, Mazatzal Mountains (including Four Peaks), and the Superstition Mountains. State Route 188 travels along the shore of the lake for much of its length. Tonto National Monument is located 4 miles (6 km) from Roosevelt Dam. Parts of the monument provide views of much of the reservoir.
Fishing is a common recreational activity at Roosevelt Lake. The lake is home to a variety of game fish including crappie, carp, sunfish, flathead and channel catfish, and smallmouth bass and largemouth bass. There was a slot size limit of between 13 and 16 inches for the bass, and only one can be taken per day.
Until recently, Lake Roosevelt also hosted the state's most significant population of the federally endangered southwestern willow flycatcher. Since the lake's rise following heavy rains in the winter of 2005, the population dynamics between this site and the other significant Arizona population (on the San Pedro River) are unclear.
There are several Arizona Trail trailheads in the vicinity. The 800 mile (1,280 km) long hiking trail extending from the Arizona-Mexico border to Utah crosses the Salt River on the State Route 188 bridge that crosses Theodore Roosevelt Lake just northeast of Roosevelt Dam.
The Lake is home to the Grapevine Airstrip, a small general aviation recreational airstrip located a quarter mile from the shore. The airstrip hosts numerous fly-ins a year.

Die Apache Trail Historic Road, auch AZ 88 genannt, östlich von Phoenix rühmt sich großer historischer, kultureller und landschaftlicher Bedeutung. Sie führt über 116 Kilometer von Apache Junction nach Globe-Miami, wo sich die 63 Kilometer lange Gila-Pinal Scenic Road direkt anschließt, die zurück nach Phoenix führt.
Zwischen Apache Junction und dem Tonto National Monument gehört der Apache Trail zu den landschaftlich reizvollsten Routen in den USA. Die abenteuerliche Fahrt ist ein unvergessliches Western-Erlebnis. Theodore Roosevelt sagte bei der Einweihung des nach ihm benannten Staudamms sinngemäß: „Im Apache Trail treffen das Großartige der Alpen, die Pracht der Rocky Mountains und die Herrlichkeit des Grand Canyons zusammen.“
Der Apache Trail folgt einem alten Pfad der Apachen durch die Felsschluchten des Salt River, führt jedoch an der Canyon-Seite höher hinauf, weil der Canyon jetzt teilweise in den Fluten des Salt Rivers und den sich anschließend bildenden Seen ertrunken ist. Kurz nach 1900 wurde er als Versorgungsstraße für den Bau des Theodore-Roosevelt-Damms angelegt. Heute führt er an einer Reihe attraktiver State Parks und kleiner Orte entlang und gewährt Zugang zu den schönen Superstition Mountains.

Der Theodore Roosevelt Lake in Arizona USA ist ein Stausee, der den Salt River und Tonto Creek staut. Stausee und Staumauer wurden nach Theodore Roosevelt benannt. Seine maximale Tiefe ist 74,7 m. Die einzige Stadt am Ufer ist Roosevelt.
Der Stausee war die Voraussetzung für das Wachstum der südwestlich gelegenen Stadt Phoenix (Arizona) zur Metropole.
