When in the heights of majestic Himalayas, the weather changes very quickly. A shot when winds started playing and temperature started dropping rapidly.
When I first saw these birds I could not understand their behavior. They were very vocal and dancing all over the place as if I was near the nest. Well as it turned out, I was. This pair of Ash-throated flycatchers had a nest in this 6" diameter pipe. The birds were actively feeding their youngsters. The temp. when I first discovered these birds was in the mid 90s. I'm not sure how these hatchlings are going to survive the heat !!
A wonderful morning on the summit of Hawksbill Mountain with Tommy White, watching a new day come to Linville Gorge and also enjoying a day starting without rain and thunderstorms. The roar of the river can clearly be heard from atop the mountain, even above the stiff gust of wind blowing around, making it difficult to steady the camera on a tripod. This morning had some special light, reflecting off the rising mist and fog covering the Catawba and Hwy 221 valleys…

Public restrooms give me the McHeebies. I have mini panic attacks when I have to use one. So why not snap a shot, to take the edge off. And then run the hell outta there!
Also, for the record, I do not wear spandex clothing. :P
I spent Friday evening puddle hunting in Seattle. The storm was still heavy when we arrived but I didn't mind the free shower. It felt nice to see rain again, it's been too long.
This was a night of unfortunate events. I locked my keys in my trunk. That moment when you stare at your keys while the trunk is closing..... only a $75 fee to unlock it....after his first offer of $169 + $20 service fee. I asked if that price included oral favors! To top it off we were recording an R&B show in which I forgot to press record during the first half of the show....doh!
In the end, I got my puddle shots. That made me happy.
When a Sequoia falls in the woods, the Earth moves. Notice that the roots (near the center of the picture) look remarkably like a big Leo.
When I went to Chicago for business I had time to visit beautiful places and the Sears tower is one of them. From the floor nbr 94 if I'm not wrong, you have a great view of the lake and city.
When I came across this farm, I saw this photo in black and white. It made me think this is what things looked like during the dust bowl. If we don't get some good moisture soon, it will be close to the dirty 30's again.

Well not quite it's still hot and humid, I'm really looking forward to Autumn while many of you are longing for a warm spring :-)
When I saw this scene I knew I had to capture it, the Willow is a little cut off as there is a rather unsightly building to the right of it, the fence I rather like with all the horizontal bars and the shadows.
The River Arun was flowing down towards Arundel Castle which you can just see over the Reeds in the distance. This is the garden of the Black Rabbit pub in Arundel on a lovely warm sunny day.
...you simply let it in. Last of summer days; my eyes are welling up. I realized that i don't really like winters. I want a longer summer. But then i whine about it every day, don't i?
This book, Crow in the House, Wolf at the Door, came recommended by Sandy. I'm still reading it. I've liked it so far.
They said love between light and dark could never survive...
but we don’t play by their rules.
Two blades, two hearts, one war.
Every strike, every spark, is a reminder that even in battle,
our souls already chose each other long ago.
When he feels like he should be having his fun
Much too blind to see the damage he's done
Sometimes a man must awake to find that, really,
He has no-one...
My first shoot with Caroline was kind of a gift that keeps on giving. So many photos I'm happy with. That was a good day.

When we arrived home from our trip, two of our bathrooms were in this state. Ivar had quite the fun time and we had a huge laugh about it!
I didn't have a micro-bike, so I quickly made one, out of wire scraps.
One could argue that the bike isn't fully functional, but you can't deny the weight is down to a bare minimum...
(the size of the visible part is just shy of 7.5cm)
