    Happy Again

    Thanks, Oliver & Michael. The reflected light is well worth it.

    Happy Again

    Thanks, guys. I think that the last 2 are my favorites. The mud cracks (happily, without footprints!) and patterns made me very happy.

    Happy Again

    A few of you may remember when I posted some shots of Happy Canyon in 2022. I finally got back there after a failed attempt (the road was closed @5 miles before the old trailhead and adding 10 miles on to the hike was not something I was up for) and I think there were a couple of other times...

    The Valley Never Sleeps

    They're both really nice. I'm with Jim in that the bit of light coming through the trees is lost in the B&W. Awfully close, pretty much a toss up between the two.

    The CO River in BW

    Some great drama there, Jeffrey. The B&W processing really brings out the textures.

    The terrible twos

    What a great set & story! I miss seeing foxes.

    Cineraria

    Cineraria marítima is used in homeopathy for eye disorders and, just to be confusing (from Horticulture Magazine): Cineraria is a term often applied broadly to plants in the Senecio genus or other related genera. It is also a name used to refer to Pericallis x hybrida, sometimes called...

    Beautiful, Kurt! I just saw our first ones out today.

    Before the Clouds Cleared

    That's some nice storm light you got there, Jim. If you hadn't mentioned that there was a person there, at most I would have wondered what the blue patch was. And maybe why you left it in (haha:))

    A Quick Jaunt to Cedar Mesa

    If you like that kind of thing, Cedar Mesa is a veritable treasure trove. And the hiking is beautiful, with rock terraces stepping up/down and usually numerous pools of water. Access used to be free & easy, but now you need to pay to play; minimal, but well deserved, particularly now with...

    A Quick Jaunt to Cedar Mesa

    It was really nice to find somewhere that obviously had little traffic. Most people are going in/coming out of Grand Gulch & eager to either get into the main canyon or back to their vehicles. I did see 2 people who were hiking out, but mine was the only vehicle at the TH. There is graffiti...

    A Quick Jaunt to Cedar Mesa

    I managed to get away for a few days and visited some ruins I hadn't been to before. I'd tried to find Citadel West previously, but the directions I had were so jumbled that all I ended up doing was driving & hiking around, searching in vain. I finally realized that 3 locations had gotten...

    Mt. Shasta

    BW processing is spot on!

    Morning's Glory

    Really nice, quiet image, Bob. And the richness of MF.

    Layers, Shapes and Patterns

    Nice combination of textures, Jameel.

    Stars Over Yosemite Portrait (Edit)

    I like the darker sky. I agree with Michael13 in that the foreground doesn't look like a night image. Beautiful image overall!

    Chaos Theory

    Thanks, Jim. I just haven't been shooting much recently. Hoping to be able to get out starting this Spring.

    Chaos Theory

    Thanks, Jameel. The fog/low clouds were pretty subtle. Seems like they're never as dense as when I look out my window!

    Chaos Theory

    I was out in California in late January for, ironically, a traumatic brain injury seminar when I got hit by a car as I was walking on the sidewalk, crossing a driveway to a shopping center. I must have been looking at the businesses in the center to see what was there, as I didn't see the car...
