“Frostmelt”

Walking the trail in bright sun after freezing fog resulted in millions of sparkling drops everywhere.

“Rebirth”

Spotted this one tiny mushroom while I was hiking through a completely burned area along Fall Creek.

“Escape”

succulents growing over the edge of a planter

“Spring Preview”

Spent some time in my yard playing with a new-to-me lens (Sony 1.8/35 SAM on an A58). Pretty noisy even at fairly low ISO but I got some nice macro shots with pleasing background blur.

“Butterflies in the Rain”

Another of Eugene’s many murals.

“Weathered Wave”

Architectural detail from Eugene Fire Station #1 with (obviously) some cinematic post-processing.

“No Parking Bud”

Possibly the most Eugene parking meter ever.

“Circle of Mushrooms”

These tiny little guys were only about an inch across all told.

8 tiny mushrooms on a tree trunk

“Pigs in a Tree”

I dunno, maybe nobody else sees round heads with snouts here.

“It’s Winter Dammit!”

There was just enough snow at the top of Spencer Butte for some dedicated hiker to build a tiny snowman.
