November is great for fall scenery here in the PNW, and I was looking for something different. Christena (a member of this forum) had been showcasing the "leaf in a fence" photos, and I was teasing her about creating a new genre... and this shot found my viewfinder. Sometimes motivation comes...

October, and I was looking for street scenes. I couldn't pass this shot up, as the mural was fantastic in it's detail and size. As I was pondering how to demonstrate scale, the pedestrian crossed into the frame. I love this shot for a host of reasons, including the fact that I shot it from...

September, and the weather is turning some great cloud scapes. I returned to my original strengths in landscape photography, and captured some insane blue hour colors over the Olympic Mountain range.

August saw me dig out the lighting kits, as new ideas rose to the surface. My nearly twenty years in the wine business had seen me shoot next to nothing, in my primary field... appalling! I set out to create something simple, yet dramatic, and viola!

July brought more models to work with, and Missy was inspired by my work with the Trash the Dress shoot. Fearing large bodies of water, she was very hesitant to get too far from shore, so I waded right in to my armpits, holding the camera up and dry. This high chromatic image has garnered some...

Trash the Dress! A former Playboy magazine model and my afore mentioned pal invited me to shoot with them, to help me develop my portraiture skills. She was great to work with, having worked with some of the best glamour photogs in the industry, and had some great tips and pointers for me... I...

One of my old photo pals got back in touch with me, and waterfalling we went! This was along the trail to Sol Duc falls.

April is always Tulip season for me, having shot the Tulips in the Skagit Valley every year for 12 years. This time I missed any kind of decent weather to shoot in, having illness and injury to deal with. I had been working toward developing skills in personal portraiture and glamour...

March found me looking at architecture, and I found this view of the 520 floating bridge irresistable to my camera. Another pic of the day on this forum, and thanks again, Bobh!

This pic from February featured the moon shining through three separate cloud formations. I cropped the moon out, and let the light play on the cloud banks create this surreal abstract:

Many challenges over the year! This is my January best shot, which was featured as a pic of the day on this forum... Thanks, Bobh!

What a great collection! Nice work!

Thanks for using my shot, Bob. I usually shoot from the pavillion, directly under the needle. I usually work up until 7 or 8pm that night, then race down there to get my great spot... several hours too early. The key to this location is to get to the back of the pavillion where you are...

Great shots! I love capturing fireworks too!

diggin' me some Leaf in Fence... nice shots, Christena!

Leaf in the fence as a new genre... it is taking on some support!

I have discovered that continuous "fails" can lead to two things: shortening the learning curve on technique, and broadening the horizons of what I consider photogenic. I used to bail out on a photo if I couldn't get results that suited me, but now I continue to work through all of my options...

No worries! Thanks for being inspired by my image to tinker some more with it!

This fellow was acting as the lookout for the lot of them! I am not a birder, through lack of experience, but this guy was fun to capture. What kind of bird is this, anyone?

Welcome! I thought the silhouette of the wave spray in the sunset was a great shot... run with it!
