Attempting Artistic

Since we're buried in snow, I've had some time on my hands. So, I've been attempting the artistic with my photographs. What do you think?

Before...

After!

Peter the Kayaker

This is Peter. He was kayaking around the lake while I was taking photographs, and he approached me and asked if I would take his photo with the spectacular lake background. So, I did. This is what I captured.

Lake Padden in White


Yesterday we went for a walk around Lake Padden and nearly froze to death. We did it for two reasons - so I could take some photographs and so we could feed the ducks. Lake Padden has a steady duck population and with the cold water and frozen edges, we knew they would be hungry. Plus, it was a strong indication of just how hungry they were when we were at Padden a few days ago, and the ducks came running toward me as I was taking photographs.

Fungi Find


Sunset on Birch Bay


While I always seem to capture decent sunset shots, I've yet to capture a really good sunrise shot. I'm working on it, though.

Morning Feed

What is really fantastic about where I live is that nearly every morning, I never have to go far to capture wildlife. I caught this one feeding on a grassy hillside, unconcerned by me or my camera.

Foggy November Morning

Trees



One of the great advantages to living where I live is all the trees. So, on a very foggy morning I decided to get up and capture a few of those trees.
