Morning commute

Having to return to work from an outpost lake by 7 am isn’t so bad when the view is like this.Agimak Lake

Got an Itch?

A duck’s neck is very flexible! How’s this for a move?

I’m certain these ducks in the creek are the family that we’ve watched grow up in our bay. They didn’t seem the least bothered by Lindor having a swim just a few feet from them.

Strange storm cloud

Lesson learned taking this pic – always bring the whole camera bag (at least the other lens!). I was only a few steps from home with my zoom lens on when I noticed the odd formation. I snapped this quickly with the lens pulled back as far as possible. By the time I ran back, switched to the wide angle and returned, the sky had changed, the ‘donut’ no longer visible.

Golden drops

Photographers consider a number of things in getting the images they capture for example sunrise and sunset provide the most incredible light AND always have your camera ready!
We’ve had an unusual number of rainy days this summer; cloudy, grey and wet from sun up to sundown. This day in particular just as the sun was to drop over the horizon, the sky broke. It was only a few minutes of golden glow.

Fish for dinner

Although we caught and enjoyed fish for dinner the other night, I thought you’d be much rather see these photos my friend, Amanda caught of the Heron in the creek working for and enjoying his.

Check out her complete Heron slide show on flickr to see him dine.
