Off the Beaten Path

Location: Russian Orthodox Cemetery, Sitka Alaska

Time of Year: June 9, 2009

Other Info: Interesting setting for a cemetery off and into the woods. Bright Green foliage overgrown for the most part with the exception of a two foot walking path.

Location: Hubbard Glacier, Alaska

Time of Year: June 10,2009

Other Info: Perfect conditions. I was worried that it was going to be blue skies and sun at this point of the trip, but ecstatic joy came to fruition when I saw a grey overcast sky. The overcast skied allowed the blue, in the compressed ice, to pop put beautifully, in my eyes. The weather was overcast and cold at one point during shooting my hand physically could not press in the trigger on my camera. Now come to think of it cold and 400+ shots might have something to do with the fatigue. The ship was able to manouver us to less than a mile, 0.7miles, from the glacial face. This shot is cropped out from 16 shots which were then stitched together by a random program from HP. So enjoy the largest tidewater glacier in North America.

Electric Cedar

Location: Cultus Lake Provincal Park, Chilliwack B.C.

Time of Year: May 23, 2009

Other Info: This shot is from our campsite and I was trying to frame this cedar leaf for about 15 min. This is the end result. I like how simple the shot is but the centre is a little out of focus for my liking, darn wind.

The Corporation

The Corporation Says: "You are a valued cog.....er ....member to the corporation. Your input....er....hard work is the grease that keeps the corporation moving into the future. For your valued work one extra hour for lunch has been precisely allocated to your nutrition break. Please remember that you will be working one hour later for lack of productivity."

Location: Hell's Gate, Fraser Canyon

Time of Year: May 16, 2009

Other Info: This shot is of the cogs that run the water wheel for the gold panning exhibit at Hell's Gate. The corporation quote, is something that I have been toying around with in my head and actually used it, a different version, on my mothers day card to my lovely mother this year. This year's card featured Sponge Bob Square Pants and was hot pink. Written inside, with love and care, the corporation slogan crediting one extra week vacation for a job well done. Many people give flowers I give an extra weeks vacation, not paid vacation, mostly because I am a jobless, hobby enthusiast at the moment.

Losing your Marbles.......

Location: Hell's Gate, Fraser Canyon.

Time of Year: May 16,2009

Other Info: Crossed a bridge.....walk up a path..............take note of the sign which is 90% helpful. Now how to contact Helen about said, "lost marbles".

One art equals many crafts

Location: Kitchen Table (once again)


Time of Year: May 18, 2009


Other Info: Arts and crafts at the table, trying out the old adage that running with scissors will put out your eye. I figure we are blessed with two eyes so live a little and run with scissors. Thinking now have the scissor blades closed no use in putting both your eyes out. This shot is an HDR overlay of three shots edited to my, and possibly, your liking.
