Before my trip to Alaska, I made a post about some photos I had hoped to obtain. They weren't really based upon anything other than my imagination running wild. I had never been there before, so they weren't based on much education about the place either, what...

Denali wildlife
While I only spent a short 2.5 days in Denali, I suppose I had OK luck with seeing wildlife there. Only the first 17 miles of the park road are open to public traffic, which is such a miniscule portion of the entire park. Yet, it still is an incredibly large...
Return from Alaska
Hey folks. Back home now after a couple of days of recouping from a bad cold I caught while on the boat in Katmai. Future posts will elaborate more on the trip that was basically broken down into three segments - Denali, Kodiak/Katmai, and a short day...
Alaska bound
Well, I am now less than 2 weeks away from heading off on my first trip to Alaska. I surprise myself I haven't mentioned it before here, but I have been so swamped with so many other things. I will be photographing for a few days just outside Denali National Park,...
Cryptic Teardrop Crabs
Continuing my look back through some of my underwater work, and scanning new images - I came across these images of Cryptic Teardrop Crabs. These little crabs are about the size of your fingernail, and generally only come out at night. Both of these...
Sea Lions at play
I recently reprocessed this photograph that was originally shot back in 2001 on a trip to the Galapagos Islands. There isn't much dramatic change from the original version, just a bit more contrast and pop I wanted to add. However, aside from the technical...

Deer photos & retreats
I had quite a sight in my backyard last night. We have some jingle bells at our back door that we need to ring before letting our dog out. Too many critters wandering about, and enough bad experiences with skunks and opossums to teach us to make sure the "coast is...
Don’t leave me alone
So what to water lilies have to do with sea lions? I was rescuing some more images from Picture Purgatory and came across a couple that seemed to have a similar concept to them. I couldn't help but notice how important the elements other than the main subject were...
