Here are all of my new uploads from October, 2019 through the end of January, 2020. I normally try to post my latest additions monthly, but with September’s Mountain States Road Trip and with my wanting to finish my Thirty Years of Photography series, posting updates took a backseat to …
First off, I want to apologize for being so late on this last installment in my Thirty Years of Photography series – I had originally planned on having this all up by September of 2019. But then I went off to Yellowstone and had those 2,000 photos to dig through, …
Making Plans From August 31st to September 9th my companion and I took a trip to Craters of the Moon National Monument, Yellowstone National Park, Grand Teton National Park, and the points connecting the three.

It’s hard to believe that it’s been thirty years since I got my first camera. Things sure have changed a lot since then, more so because thirty years ago I was using a thirty year old camera! My photographic skill was far from honed, so you’ll see pictures here that …
June 16 was Nature Photography Day as proclaimed by the North American Nature Photography Association. This Blue-Eyed Darner dragonfly was at Laguna Lake, a small community lake in San Luis Obispo. Above : A White Pelican at Oso Flaco Lake, an unexpected zone of peace and quiet on the edge …
“Inflexible” – Digital Artwork from an MRI scan. I started with a CD of dozens of 460x460px images of various angles and slices of head. 420×460 isn’t enough resolution for a greeting card, let alone a four-foot canvas print. These images would have to be enlarged, and enlarged a lot. …
