I will settle for 2nd out of 670 images.
Ene of the road
Have you ever gotten to the end of the road and not wanted to turn around and go back? That is the way it was yesterday. The sounds of the Jays and squirrels, the intoxicating smell of a mixed species forest with fir, hemlock and cedar and the little details of nature all around you….
Fall On The River
I will try and get a set from this shoot over the weekend.

Brain under a tree.
I found what appears to be the brain of some congressman laying on the ground up in the woods. Mind and body being separate things for them may account for some of their ideas. Actually it’s a cauliflower mushroom and some berry leafs.
Fall Is No Doubt Here
Here in the Pacific Northwest fall is in all ahead mode. In talking to some fellow photographers it looks like this weekend is going to be the prime shooting weekend. The frost is starting an night so the days are numbered before Fall does fall and the color ends up on the ground. Down here…
Contest Enteries
I entered the five fine art images that I have had made into gallery wraps in a contest at Digital Photo Pro. It will be interesting to see if anything comes of it.
Two new gallery wraps
I ordered a pair of gallery wraps to add to my collection. I opted to go portrait mode this time to allow for easier hanging in different locations. The two images are Autumn Raindrops and Reflection In Pond.
Population Control
Every now and then one of a pair of hawks stops by the house to snag the fixings for a pigeon pot pie. I was fortunate enough to have this guy stop by on my birthday. I believe it is a Coopers Hawk. It is really hard to tell the difference between the Coopers and the Sharp Shinned other than size and this one was just in between.
I hope he got his meal somewhere and I think him for not leaving me a pile of feathers to clean up in the back yard.

Added Links
Hey there, I finally joined the modern age and got an Android smart phone. It you take a look on the “Links” page, I have added links to some of the apps I am finding handy and better than the ones I have installed and taken back off. I didn’t write reviews. There are plenty…
