    Willamette Valley Morels

    Leia- I'm glad someone got the joke :) So, just as you don't bat an eye at picking a blackberry for the table, I don't bat an eye at picking a morel or a porcino. There are lots of berries and mushrooms in the woods that can make you sick, but once you learn how to identify them, you're set...

    Great Horned Owls???

    That is a fantastic photograph, Leia. I love it. Great color and texture on the owls :) Well done!

    Willamette Valley Morels

    I live just over the hill from Pisgah and have perused it's lowlands for morels many times, to no avail. But, it's not about where morels have fruited in the past. They are not an "annual" crop. Put yourself in the right type of habitat, and on any given year it might explode with Morchella...

    Willamette Valley Morels

    Haha! I can't escape! Lol ;) I've been a member over at CMS for years. That's my home! This should be a great year for M. esculenta in the Cottonwoods. More specifically, though, look for dead or dying cottonwoods, and fruit trees in the same riparian habitat. Happy huntin to ya, Woden :)

    lol. haha. Morel mushrooms = MUCH AWESOMENESS in the pan. Super tasty... you should try some. And I agree, they are VERY beautiful mushrooms. (slurping noise that Hannibal Lecter makes after said line) ;)

    So if April Showers bring May Flowers, what does April Snow bring?

    I second the rest. All great stuff but number 2 is my fave. That is an AWESOME droplet shot! Well done :)

    Lithia Park Ashland Oregon 4-4-2011

    Great stuff, Russ, per usual :) I really love number 4. The greens are fantastic!

    Silly Christena. I keep my fava beans in the fridge... right next to a nice Chianti:eek:

    Willamette Valley Morels

    LMAO. :) Maybe that's why my portraiture business hasn't quite taken off yet ;) I should at least ask for payment BEFORE the shoot ;) bahahahaha :)

    Willamette Valley Morels

    Thanks, Christena. These ones ended up in my belly. I made a nice little pasta of Linguini and Morels Beschemel when I got home last night. Off to find some more real soon :) Thanks for the comment :)

    Willamette Valley Morels

    It's that time of year again. Morel mushrooms are starting to show themselves outside and in local store coolers. While roaming the back roads in the coastal foothills yesterday, we happened upon a really nice area, covered in these tasty guys- Morchella rufobrunnea Happy spring to you...

    Osprey family and some macro

    Fantastic stuff, pahdna. #2 is my fave of the bunch. I love the composition and story. Awesome! :)
  14. HoedadKid

    those eyes!

    VERY cool. Number 2 is definitely the winner, for me. :)
  15. HoedadKid

    want fries with that?

    I agree with showcase... AWESOME image! What a catch, regardless. The problem is that you told us about the possibly grander opportunity ;) National Geo stuff there, Squirrel!

    A Day at the Park

    Great suff, Arline., I really love the first goose image. Wonderful. It looks like you had quite a nice time hangin' with the local wildlife at the park. Thanks for sharing :)

    Flowers in the Gorge

    Very cool, Janice. I love the shots of the Death Camas. I found a spot in Eugene last year where there was one solo white camas, amongst a field of blues... Not the Death camas, though. Very cool :)

    Windmill

    Awesome! Thanks, Janice. I'm finally having a little more success in the field these days. When before it was a struggle to match the vision in my head with what my camera was doing, it seems to come a lot quicker and a little bit more naturally every day. Thus, more opportunities seized and...

    Windmill

    Thanks, Judy. This is definitely more like a weather vane, but windmill sounded more dramatic in my title. I'm glad you like the motion. It took a little time to get it all the way I wanted it, but I'm glad I was patient. Thanks :)

    Windmill

    Thanks, Janice. Truth be told, I initially wanted to dial this shot in for a 1" exposure. But after playing around a bit, I finally found that 1/5 at f32 was the magic combo. The color in the sky popped out and it was still slow enough to capture the movement I wanted. 1/5 actually made the...
