Rained Out
A few weeks ago, we experienced another “100 year” snow storm. It’s similar to one we had 10 years ago. We received just over 2 feet of snow over two weeks. After that, it started raining and raining—over 12 inches in parts of our mountains. The video clip shows what happened to our valley once the snow melted. I’ll be posting another clip soon from the snows we had as well. The video footage in the clip is from my latest tool - the Canon 5D Mark II (full 1080p reduced to 1/4 size). I’ll be providing some updates about that as well.

The clouds parted long enough to view the total lunar eclipse. I captured this shortly after the full eclipse. NASA’s Eclipse page provides all the details.
Glass
[L]ong, white glass. If you’re a photographer, you know of what I speak. Mrs. Claus was kind enough to bring a new Canon lens this Christmas. I often track photo equipment and electronics (for pricing, availability, etc.) through wish lists, but I wasn’t planning on getting any of it this season. Christmas is full of surprises.
The Evergreen State
Washington State is known for being green (and rainy), but it has a few other colors as well. View some of the state's beauty and outdoor diversity from the Sound to the mountains and beyond in the latest gallery.
Project 365 - A Photo a Day
A photo a day keeps the blahs at bay. That's what we're hoping for when my co-worker, Lisa, thought it a good idea to start snapping shots—each and every day. I always carry a P&S digital camera with me to snap the "opportunity" shots and this will be a good way to capture the everyday, everyday.
New Photo Gallery Section
I've added a new section titled "Galleries". It will host an ongoing portfolio of photos taken on various themes and subjects. I have the high-res versions of all photos if there's an interest to use them in any of your projects. Photos have been taken with either a Canon EOS 20D dSLR, Canon P&S digital S330 or an ancient Minolta X-700 35mm slide/film camera.
Digital SLR's
After shooting many years with a great, but aging film SLR, it's time to move up to a new dSLR.
