Mt. Washburn
The view from atop Mt. Washburn – it was a rather pretty day to be up there. Picture taken with Canon 60D, EF-S 18-135mm lens @ 18mm, 1/640 shutter, f/11, ISO 100

Black Bear
One of the black bears we saw in Yellowstone. Looking back on these pictures, I wish I had a better camera (actually, better lens would have been preferable) and had shot them all as RAW files. There was probably a quarter million dollars in lenses* standing the bank watching this… Continue reading
Badlands Panorama
I feel like the Badlands get ignored because they don’t have the biggest, tallest, wildest, whatever-est claim, but it really was a beautiful park, and based on pictures I’ve seen from other people, I would readily go back there for another visit. Of course, we were there in the early… Continue reading
Waterfall
One of the waterfalls in the Smoky Mountains on the trail to Rainbow Falls. This has been about the only place I’ve visited where I really like the warmer tone to the pictures. Typically, I seem to like everything to lean toward the blue-magenta area of the color triangle. Picture… Continue reading
Tulip
One of the tulips in Mark’s yard from last spring. I did some experimenting with reducing the depth of field, but ended up liking the version with slight definition in the grass better. Picture taken with Sony a6000, SEL 18-200mm lens @ 88mm, 1/10 sec shutter, f/11, ISO 100
Washington – Day 5 – Olympic National Forest
Because we stopped short of Olympic National Forest, we had to finish the drive up to Quinault first thing in the morning. The first stop was a the USFS / NPS Recreation Information building where we got a map of the immediate area (not so much Olympic National Park as… Continue reading
Rainier Wildflowers
I had a concept in mind for this picture, but I think I didn’t execute it quite right. I probably should have poked around a bit more to find a better flower patch without the little tree to the right. Also, the shot ended up busier than I expected. Picture… Continue reading
Waterfall
This was an unmarked side-waterfall along the White River Trail up toward Mt. Rainier. I like the end product better than I thought I would – should have taken the time to pull out the tripod, because the 0.8 second shutter speed is pretty obvious. Picture taken with Sony a6000,… Continue reading
Cairn Box – August
Before I get Cairn Box #6, I figure I’d best post my notes on #5 (August).
Lake of the Angels
Lake of the Angels campsite – this was probably the coolest campsite I’ve stayed at. Picture taken with Sony a6000, SEL 18-200mm lens @ 200mm, 1/80 sec, f/16, ISO 100
