Breaking Tradition ...

These are from my archives from a mountain trip about 2 years ago.

Da Birds

The sea birds seem to truly enjoy this rock berm. Taken July 20th, 2009.

Honeysuckle in the rain

Some macro work between rain showers.

Honeysuckle in the rain

We had a nice long rain here a few days ago. It was really nice and much needed.

Another shot

Of the Mighty Kern River in Kern County, California.

More Pretty Water

Same fountain as before, but about 50 feet back from where the last shot took place.

Pretty water

A fountain I found out at Hart Park in Kern County, CA north east of Bakersfield. I took the weekend off from the Internet, not really by choice. I have a blog post or two coming that will explain in detail. Just life taking control and not Letting me live my life the way I want.
The Digital camera is so bizzare at times in the way it processes images. There is so much more that should have showed up in this picture, but the way the light was coming in at the late afternoon and the way I was having to face the water at the time took this image which appears to be black and white, but isn't. You see the far shore with the green lawn and the trees and the road beyond with the cars passing by. I imagine if I tweaked the Image enough, I could get some of that info to display, but then I wouldn't have this striking image. I kept wondering as I took this shot, why the image I sort of saw in the viewfinder looked so different from what was actually present. Now I know.

Another Shot of Hart Lake

Near Hart Park in Kern County, Califorrnia. This is North east of Bakersfield.

Hart Park Lake

It's pretty small as far as lakes go, but it is what it is.

White Geese

Doing what Geese do best, not much.

Water macro

which is a negative. Enjoy and have a happy Thanksgiving.

Digitally Enhanced Water

A Macro shot of a water drop that has been enhanced some what with Irfanview.

Digitally Enhanced

The Kern River flowing, slightly altered, digitally.

Soggy Grandson

He was having a blast in the Blowup Pool with his Grandmother. He Loves water and loves being very vocal when he is in the water. He actually is very happy here, even though it may look otherwise.

Cool and calm

Another Image from the Beale Library in Bakersfield, CA.
330 Postings - Woohooo!

Dancing waters

I like to think of this as a study in light and shadow as the water plays with the light coming through against the dark background. I don't have a bigger image of this really.

Early morning fountain

Flying Water

My grandson's recent bath led to this frozen moment in time.
