Crater Lake from the top of Mt. Scott – which I suspect is the highest viewpoint in the area. The watch tower / ranger outpost is one of several in the area. Picture taken with Sony a6000, SEL18200 lens @ 18mm, 1/400 sec, f/8, ISO 100
OK – done with the Key West pictures for now. 😛 Mile zero of US-1 which runs from the Canadian border in Maine to Key West. Picture taken with Olympus C-2040z, lens @ 7.3mm (40mm equiv), f/6.3, 1/400 sec, ISO 100
The southernmost point in the continental USA. Posted because it’s just a kind of cool thing to have seen once upon a time, not for it’s photographic qualities. Picture taken with Olympus C-2040z, lens @ 21mm (140mm equiv), f/2.6, 1/320 sec, ISO 100

As Michigan gets hit with a week of warm (and humid) weather again, I’ll help prepare those of you who ski for the upcoming season! My folder label has this called Vail, but I’m pretty sure we didn’t actually make it to Vail and that this is Breckenridge. Or rather,… Continue reading
A seagull… which I’m sure everyone has seen before. I don’t have a huge amount of time spent taking bird in flight pictures, but I think this is one of the better ones I’m managed to get. I think it was taken on Skillagalee Island. Picture taken with Canon Rebel… Continue reading
A Northern White-Cheeked Gibbon. These are pretty common in zoos all over, or, at least they also have some in the Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago. Picture taken with Canon Rebel XT, EF 70-300mm @ 300mm, 1/400 sec shutter, f/7.1, ISO 1600
