Sunflowers Standing at Attention

1/16/2021

0 Comments

 
Sometimes driving in rural Eastern Kansas you find the unexpected.  Just around a corner on a remote country road, we came across a beautiful field of sunflowers that seemed to be waiting for us.  Interestingly, it was a cloudy day, which means I might not have even been on a photo jaunt that day.  Fortunately we decided to venture out anyway.  Sunflowers were the subjects of some of my most iconic photos from the Midwest, and this is one of my favorites.

Treetop Chairlift

1/9/2021

0 Comments

 
I don't ski, but if I did, I'd be excited to climb aboard a chairlift like this one that moves you high above the snowy landscape.  One winter, Nadyne and I took a snowcat, a tractor-tread transport made for deep snow, and rode up the ski slopes to explore the lodge, ski runs and jumps overlooking Winter Park in Colorado.  I snapped dozens of photos that day, but this shot was the most striking to me.

Buckhorn Cholla of Red Rock Canyon

1/2/2021

0 Comments

 
Red Rock Canyon sits just south of Summerlin near Las Vegas and is known for its 13-mile drive around the red clay walls of the valley.  On the floor of the canyon is desert brush on rocky soil and the occasional yucca and cactus.  I'm always drawn to flowering cactus, but this buckhorn cholla was exceptional compared to most, as well as having yellow instead of the usual red or magenta flowers. This photo is easily one of my favorite cacti pics.

Relics- Dump Truck and Store Front

12/26/2020

0 Comments

 
Like most photographers, I'm a sucker for an interesting abandoned house or store, especially if it's being reclaimed by nature.  In Coldspring, Texas, several dozen miles north of Houston, I came across this scene, with an old, rusted, red dump truck to add to the ambiance.  I also wondered if someone is using this relic of a storefront, since it has electricity run to it...

A Fellow Photographer

12/19/2020

0 Comments

 
When my friend, Jack, had their summer home in Wyoming, we would visit, and, yes, we would be a pair of Jacks exploring the countryside.  He was also a photographer and we spent countless hours on his 4x4 ATV's roaming through the mountain ranges and valleys in the Eastern Rocky Mountains, the Snowy Mountains and the vast Wyoming plains.  This shot was taken as Jack was snapping a photo from a vista looking northwest over some of those rolling plains.

Upward-Facing Mallard

12/12/2020

0 Comments

 
I'm not sure if this duck was doing yoga, stretching after a long flight or simply showing off its translucent plume, but I'm happy that it decided to do it while I had my camera pointed at him.  This particular mallard is a Virginian, enjoying this year's late-fall warmth near Chesapeake Bay.

Reclamation by Moss at Pinnacles

12/5/2020

0 Comments

 
Just like forest floors all over the world, moss, lichen, algae and fungi target fallen trees, trunks and branches in Pinnacles National Park in California.  The process in which forest remnants are decomposed provide nutrients for both the reclamation agents and the forest itself, without the need for photosynthesis or chlorophyll.  That they are so colorful is a beautiful happenstance for photographers and backwoods hikers alike.

Arch de l’aventure

11/28/2020

0 Comments

 
The name of this icon in Arches National Park in Utah is Delicate Arch, but my nickname for it seems more appropriate.  There are an amazing number of arches in the park, and this one, also known as "the Chaps" and "the Schoolmarm's Bloomers" by local cowboys, is a bit of a hike to get to, but worth it.  Interestingly, I took several photos of this structure, including some devoid of people in the frame, but this lone hiker beneath the sandstone archway lends scale to the picture without being a distraction and is my favorite of the set.

Aspen Country

11/21/2020

0 Comments

 
Smack dab in the middle of Colorado, in the Pike-San Isabel National Forest and near Aspen Ridge, is an entire forest of tall, mature aspens.  Colorado is famed for its golden fall foliage due to this quintessential tree, creating a spectacle unlike few other places in the country. 

These tress were on Bassam Ridge in the mountains east of Nathrop and north of the famed Aspen Ridge.  The state is also known for its warm sunny days and bright blue skies scattered throughout autumn, making any outing worth its weight in gold.

Charred Yuccas of the Red Rock Fire

11/13/2020

0 Comments

 
South of Summerlin and the Las Vegas Valley sits the well-known Red Rock Canyon, which is famous for bright red hues and multi-colored mountains around its valley.  Desert wildfires occasionally sweep through the area and these burnt yucca plants caught my attention during one of my first jaunts around the canyon loop. 

​It's quite a contrast to my usual nature photos, which usually consist of vivid flowers or colorful landscapes, but any snapshot that draws my eyes becomes a favorite.  One can easily envision what these vibrant desert plants looked like before the flames arrived.
