Just before sunset yesterday evening, we were caught in a short rain shower as we walked around the inner harbour of Victoria, British Columbia. One pleasant...
I must admit that I wasn’t much of a fan of Dale Chihuly’s glass art before coming up to Seattle on this trip. What I had seen of it always...
We’re heading across to Vancouver Island this morning and spent last night in a hotel close to the ferry terminal. This rail bridge was close by and made...
The textures produced by side light on undulating hills covered in wheat are mesmerizing. Add a few parallel tractor tracks and it gets even better (to me, at least)....
The Seattle shot I posted a few days ago was taken from the very top of this building – the University of Washington tower. We stayed in a hotel...
This is another view from Steptoe Butte State Park in Washington’s Palouse region. The rolling hills really do look amazing from up there if you are fortunate...
Austin is once again undergoing rapid downtown development and the skyline is set to change again. This was the view a couple of months ago from the Pfluger...
Back to the Palouse today with this image of a section of barn roof. We spent a fascinating hour or so photographing in and around this fantastic round...
It’s July 4th so I had to post this picture of the US Flag taken last October in Bar Harbor during our NxNW trip up to Maine. Despite the fact that...
One of the competitors at the 17th Annual Brent Thurman Memorial Bull Riding event in Dripping Springs walks back after his ride. I wonder if he hung on for the required...
One of the cowboys at last weekend’s Brent Thurman Memorial Bull Riding event hanging out behind the chutes before the start of the competition.
It seems odd to me that two of my favourite photos from last Saturday night’s bull riding were not of the riding or cowboys taking part but of a couple...
I spent a lot more time shooting behind-the-scenes than I did photographing the action in the arena last Saturday. I did grab a few shots of the riders...
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...
