Canon A1 - Agfa slide film
That is Mt. Cook, the tallest mountain in New Zealand. I took this shot on an incredibly bumpy plane ride (6 people, only me and the pilot weren't sick), way back in 1983.
I'm happy to say I'm headed back there very soon, it's been much too long. This time my gear is 10x better and I have a few more skills too. Going to be fun.

Lots of time on my hands, flying across the entire country. This was in Eastern Washington.

Have been on vacation in Montana about a week. Not primarily a photo mission, but some time each day for photography. Today, last day, Montana gave me its all!
This was on the road between Twin Falls and Ennis. Glorious country.
Just another gorgeous night, where we live.

The light in the forest... sometimes so magical, right? This shot reminded me of my blog buddy Diane Varner (http://dailywalks.com/). I'm sure she would make it even more dramatic, with her post processing skills. It's been way to long since I visited her site. She's just amazing.
I'd love a stroll in this forest right now. Imagine the cool feel, the delicious smell... Come with me?

There have been many times where I awaited a sunset over the ocean only to have it "fizzle." That means the clouds obscurred the sunset. I thought that's what would happen this particular evening, but good old Mr Sun had a surprise in store for me.

Wishing you and yours a healthy and prosperous 2014! Go make some great images...
Just what I need... A brisk walk in the winter cold fresh air. Wearing all my nice new warm clothing found under the tree yesterday. Shot near Truckee, CA, many years ago.

I wasn't planning on posting "another" Rainier picture, but I got so much good feedback on this shot from friends and colleagues I decided to. This was yesterday morning, and all day she was extremely photogenic.
Today starts our Christmas visitors, and so of course a big Winter storm blew in. No more views of the mountain for now!

Yesterday morning was busy at Mt. Rainier. It's so big and massive that it makes its own weather. See that "lenticular cloud" it made? And then a mean little cumulus clould floating by. And it is a little tricky to see at this resolution, but you see that "blob" just under and below the left edge of the dark cloud? That's an airliner, taking off from SEATAC.
What a view the people on the left side of the plane had!
