Here's one of my favorite photos. Taken in South Dakota on September 2013. This was a portion of the Badlands, one of the most beautiful areas in America in my opinion. I highly recommend a visit if you've not gone yet.

Doublythumbs, to Halloween

One from the archives. Taken at Bark Camp State Park in Ohio on October, 2009. I remember buying my first circular polarizer filter and was absolutely amazed by the results of the reflections I was getting. A little too much post-processing here, but I was young. Browsing these old photos really makes me want to get back into the hobby.

I went out for a stroll with @Think_Link at to help clear my head. These pine trees were so pretty!

I took a relaxing walk with @Think_Link on a path near our house. The sky and the lighting were perfect. With everything happening in our world recently, we need to remember to take a moment to breathe.

Happy birthday to me! I'm out with @Think_Link celebrating my 39th. I haven't had an adult beverage in a while. This one might just be enough!

I decided to tear my garden down early this year. My tomatoes were becoming bland due to the cold weather lately. I'm also giving composting a try. I hope it pays off with wonderful nutritious soil next spring. Gomez decided he needed to help keep the tarp from blowing away.

I found this photogenic cat on a walk in Wheeling, WV back in March, 2008.

Here's another photo from my Flickr archives that I wanted to share. This was taken in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada in 2015. This group of bronze sculptures by Yue Minjun is called "A-maze-ing Laughter."

I've just come home from a little vacation at Deep Creek Lake in Maryland. I can't wait to head back there again soon! Maybe next time I'll rent a boat.

Doublythumbs, to Pittsburgh

Another throwback from my Flickr archives. Duquesne Incline in Pittsburgh, PA. Taken in October 2009 with a Nikon D90.

@Think_Link and I took a quick 2-mile hike yesterday. This time at . Most of the trail was surprisingly well maintained for being such an overlooked area (though some parts definitely needed some maintenance). We didn't run into a single other person.

I went for a little walk yesterday with @Think_Link to clear my head. I've been dealing with insomnia this week. My productivity has been near zero.

Doublythumbs, to washington

I decided a good way to get re-inspired was to gain access to my old Flickr account. I'll be posting some photos periodically from when I was really into photography.

Mt. Rainier, WA. Taken in July of 2015 with a Nikon D90. I had a lot of luck getting this sun flare. We weren't too high up the mountain at this point, so there was only minimal night walking.

We went out on a long hike yesterday. It was really beautiful, but the trail was a lot more hilly than we thought. It was still nice to enjoy some fresh air.

This is Gomez. Protector of our backyard. Slayer of patio cushions and field mice. Here he's had a little too much catnip.

A 1971 Olivetti Lettera 32 typewriter. Sadly, a tiny vital gear part broke and I can't find a replacement. I'll be parting this out, hopefully helping someone else in restoring their own Lettera 32.

It turned out to be a beautiful day here in . Perfect time to tend to my garden. Here I've got popcorn and tomatoes, homegrown and so delicious!

Gomez, the neighborhood cat. He's a good boy, except when he brings dead mice to the porch.
