“Crystal Ball”
I love the way each little mosstronaut is wearing its own tiny water droplet helmet.

“Promontory”
I’d like to get this shot on a sunny day, but in Oregon I take what I can get.
“The Shell”
A bonus daily photo today, because who could resist these ladybugs in the gentle rain? In-body focus stacking from 15 frames on the EM-1 III with Oly 60mm f/2.8 macro lens @ f/5.6, 1/15s, ISO 800.

I always have this little burst of pride every time someone uses the word ‘zine’ casually as an accepted part of the language. I didn’t coin the word but I certainly had a lot to do with its spread.
“Terraces”
Another view of Lookout Point Reservoir. It’s this low deliberately, as part of court-ordered “be nice to the salmon” remedies. The dam is pretty much just for flood control at this point, though the Corps of Engineers has a cockamamie plan to build a giant salmon vacuum.

“Spring is Coming”
Spotted the first Snow Queen of the year yesterday.
“Low Water”
This is actually the upstream side of the Lookout Point Dam. I’m not sure how they draw it down this far - the water level is a good twenty feet or more below the spill gates.
“Speed”
Letting the GoPro just take a picture once every sixty seconds while I’m hiking produces some odd results.
“Dancing Lights”
Donut bokeh courtesy of a Tokina reflex lens.
Early morning at the Lowell covered bridge.

“Nature Persists”
They always say to let sleeping dogs lie. But nothing wrong with taking their picture.

“Ferndrop”
“Eerie”
Winter trees in the fog always seem to cry out for monochrome rendering.
