Club Moss



blurry because this is a combination of several hand-held pictures. I combined pictured for a greater depth of focus. It's frustrating- these web colors aren't very vivid.

Caught in The Sun



two "other" photos from today. I think the way those logs were lit up was kinda trippy

A Good Rain

It rained hard tuesday night. Come monday I had a mind to kayak a swollen creek, the strongest that runs through the forest. My friends who live near this creek were busy though, and that made the trip a no-go. I spent the afternoon doing some photography in the vicinity. The rain brought mushrooms, big-time, they were literally pooping out of the ground as I worked. BTW, afew of these picture are worth seeing bigger. you can Click to enlarge.




I realize now that a familiar piece of detritus (like the one on the left, below) is actually clover seeds.



...more bugs...

Those Green Flies




One of my first memories is of one of those shiny green flies on a pile of dog shit. I must have been about 18 months old.
I had corn on the cob this evening and the fallen soldiers attracted these flies in droves. They came out of nowhere, in no time flat there were dozens. I think that white part is the lungs.

Garter Snakes



check out the individuality of these snakes that live in the rocks in front of my house.

First Leaves


This picture is from this spring. It's out my bedroom window. I woke up and was stuck by the sight of greenery. These were the first leaves of spring. As cool as it was I would have forgotten the experience, if not for this picture.

The Drive



I love this drive. The way the sun sets on that hill has always pleased me. Living in the woods gave me the spontaneity to stop and try to photography it in the last rays of the setting sun.
