Another shot of William walking off the beach last month. I wanted to use this but never got around to it. Quickly processed for the look, could be better, could be worse. I like the drama but it is way not real. :-) Please mouse over to see the straight out of the camera before image. (Mouse-over tutorial to the right.)

Pictures of what I see, when they happen.
Taken on a recent bike ride in Salem, OR to the Willamette River.
Played with the sharpness of this to give a bit of a macro/miniature look & feel. It is fun to play with......
Another shot of Riley at the pool making a splash.
A couple daisies (mouse over the image for the second shot) shot in the neighbors burn pile. These guys are great subjects, as are all flowers. Shot in early morning, a little overcast, with a single flash to camera left.
William and his older cousin Riley, who is making a big splash in the pool, at the pool in Albany, OR. They both: Had fun, Got burnt, Are worn out, Needed food immediately afterwords. :-)
Scenic, right? My family, Cyndy, Angela & William in a tube this past weekend on Foster lake by Sweet Home. I'll tell you, it is hard to one hand the camera (and get the moon in the shot!), worry about the family, drive the boat, watch for logs and other boats/people in the lake all at once! It was a fun day out though and
Can you guess what type of flower this is? Mouse over for the answer and let me know if you knew. :-) Surprising and amazing that there can be such contrast in one flower.
An ant caught in the pitch of a pine tree.
The last spot of sun off the Oregon coast at Yachats.
This is my first attempt at smoke photography. The image is a little soft (out of focus) but I really like the waviness and the "feel" of it. Dreamy.....
I really like this shot of Hezeliah the bugler with his bicycle in the background. The shadow of the bike is better than expected.
Reeser is where the Oregon State University football team plays all six of their home games every year. (I can't believe the MILLIONS spent on this venue for the little use is sees.) This was an unusual angle as I was looking through a fence from the back side where the public does not normally go to look at the stadium. Ex
11pm last I hear a haunting horn in an empty parking lot. I went to investigate and there I met Hezeliah the bugler playing sometimes 2 bugles. It was very cool to hear and he was very gracious to allow me to photograph him.
Another rose reaching for the sky, but a little different than earlier this week. Actually, just thought I would see if I could edit the image to get anything. It is ok I think..... Mouse over for before image.

I would not have thought of this shot but I saw another on another blog and thought I have one similar so why not! Sunset on a beach near Newport, OR.
Here he is, alone in his world, content. Too bad more of us cannot be like this more often. :-)

Roc, my black lab, was sitting in deep shade when I took this last week while at the beach. I exposed for the shade but the sky was pure white. I exposed for the sky but the shade went black. (Not good for a black lab.) So, I combined the photos into this. I hope it works. I think it is interesting. I really like the cliff
I thought these waves were pretty cool, crashing up to the sun.
Taken in Newport, Oregon this past week. I waited for the sunset in general and this was a bonus shot for me. Worked out much better than expected.Mouse over for before image.

Walking down a path to the ocean.....
I do not know what these guys are but they sure are pretty. So small and delicate.
At the park that we stay at most, Whalers Rest in Newport OR, they had a little 4th of July parade on the 3rd. William rode on the "hay wagon" and got to throw out candy for the first time. He had a blast. Fun was had by all!
This is one little guy, perhaps an inch (25mm) foot to foot the long way. Another beach comber found it and we had to look too! Visit Ca
I know, similar to yesterday, but different. I like it and it fits the theme. What are you going to do! :-)My son William (5yrs old) playing in the surf. I would not let him get too wet, not wanting to soak his shoes. e did later take them off, already soaked. He decided that the water was too cold then. :-)
Visit SkyWatch Friday for more photos of above!
