Lexington Sunrise Revisited
The Lexington has a stunning mountainous background, not to mention the bounced colors from the sunrise to the East (this is showing to the West).

Dream Scenes
My new lens baby is amazing! It creates a shallow depth-of-field with funky streaks at the out-of-focus areas… The first photo is with my plastic lens which really creates the feeling of a painting. The second photo just the regular lens baby 2-glass optics. Notice how the center is tack sharp but the edges blur. …
Evel Knievel Days 2: Flying Fools High Dive
A great new show is at Evel Knievel Days this year. The Flying Fools are a group of divers that do bold dives alone and with as many as four or five other divers at the same time. It’s funny, entertaining and a little bit crazy! The pool they jump into is only about twelve …
Rock Above Butte
I was driving down from near the Mt. Con Mine (top of Main Street) and saw a nice view of the city. I put my parking break on, jumped out and flashed the foreground with my flash.
Fall Leaves at Sunset
This photo is of the trees north of Walkerville, close to where the photo was taken yesterday. It’s a combination of 5 different exposures so I could capture the sunset and detail in the trees. I also added a blur around the edge.
Rainbow on the East Ridge

Flag in the Wind
The 4th is nearing, and some of the head frames have flags on them. I’m not sure at this point what mine this is, but hopefully by tomorrow I’ll have the answer.
Sunset
I took this photo in Walkerville looking West.
Storm Clouds
The sky this morning was blue and sunny except for fog on the East Ridge. Two hours later the storm clouds were rolling in and, soon after, came the hail and then snow. Here’s a photo of the storm clouds with a little sun still hitting the mountains. After that is a sped up video …
The Highlands
This is a photo of the highlands. The clouds were moving pretty fast, which would have made for an interesting long exposure if I would have used my tripod. Unfortunately, my tripod and my telephoto lens don’t get along to well. My tripod is very short, so when I pull up the center bar any …
