12 Days of Winter Wonder Photo Challenge - Day 8: Grinch 📷
We went with a Grinch tree this year at our house. Don’t ask me why; all decor decisions belong to my wife.
“The Clump”
Just some tiny mushrooms along the Ridgeline Trail.
12 Days of Winter Wonder Photo Challenge - Day 7: Solstice 📷
This is the sighting pedestal atop Mount Pisgah. It has slots to line up with solstice sunrise. Sadly it is socked in cloudy and raining this year, so here’s a picture from a sunny day a couple months ago.
12 Days of Winter Wonder Photo Challenge - Day 6: Sparkle 📷
Still photography of “Sparkle” is kind of hard, but perhaps this time-lapse ornament touches on the idea.
12 Days of Winter Wonder Photo Challenge - Day 5: Beard 📷
I didn’t have to travel any further than my desk for this macro shot.
“The View”
Looking out from the top of Mount Pisgah on a sunny winter’s day.
“Sentinel”
There have been birds in this particular tree on my hikes so many times that I’ve started mounting a zoom lens when I’m getting close to it.
“Tuft”
Playing with in-camera focus stacking at Mount Pisgah.
12 Days of Winter Wonder Photo Challenge - Day 4: Evergreen 📷
We have no shortage of evergreens in Oregon. These are from a hike to the top of Patterson Mountain in January this year.
“To the Top”
Trail leading up Mount Pisgah. It looks like a nice spring day, but in fact it’s still mid-December.
