Prior to the start of bull riding, the cowboys spend a great deal of time preparing their equipment for their upcoming rides. Much of this effort goes...
I spent yesterday evening at Dripping Springs Ranch Park taking pictures at the annual Brent Thurman Memorial bull riding competition. Even after 20 years...
We bumped into this large and rather excellent fountain in Seattle Center next to the Space Needle and I shot a few frames. After a few minutes, music...
During our NxNW2015 trip, we spent the first day and night in Seattle and were very fortunate to be invited to visit the top floor of the University of Washington...
The colours of the Palouse are fantastic but, in this case, I decided that this image merited a monochrome treatment. It’s all about those rolling...
We’re back at my favourite derelict farmhouse on Weber Road near Pullman in the Palouse region of Washington state today. I posted a similar monochrome...
We’ll stay with the Space Needle today. One of the challenging things about shooting popular landmarks is finding some way to capture the scene that...
The Space Needle was built for the 1962 Worlds’ Fair and was, at that time, the tallest building west of the Mississippi. It’s elevators take...
I don’t typically post iPhone images here (they tend to go on Instagram or my Tumblr blog) but occasionally, I take something on the phone that merits...
I’m a sucker for light wrapping round curved surfaces so this grain silo in Uniontown was a no-brainer when I saw it shortly after sunrise. We were...
I’ve posted a couple of photos from this location before but here’s another shot of the derelict Weber House near Pullman, Washington, as seen...
Another view from the summit of Steptoe Butte in the Palouse, this time just before sunset. A really long lens was perfect for the location and Lightroom’s...
While visiting Seattle Center recently, I was very pleasantly surprised to find a Frank Gehry-designed building in the shape of the EMP (“Experience...
Flying out of Seattle is always a hit-and-miss affair for me. I try to pick a seat that will give me the best view of Mount Rainier but it seems that I normally...
I spent some time at the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center on Saturday playing with the macro gear and managed to grab a few shots of this Flame Skimmer...
Seen on the side of a building in Colfax, Washington where we stopped for breakfast at the excellent Top Notch Café a couple of mornings during our photo...
I can’t think of any more iconic sight in the city of Seattle, Washington, than the Space Needle seen here from Kerry Park. The 605-foot tower was privately...
I’ve still not found time to properly go through the hundreds of exposures I shot during our two shoots, sunrise and sunset last Friday, at Steptoe...
Yesterday’s image may show a lot of detail in the crop duster we photographed but I prefer this somewhat-more-artistic shot. No separation problems...
While in the Palouse, we saw quite a few crop dusters in operation. Dusting fields in other parts of the country may seem pretty straightforward but to do the job in the rolling...
