Hennessey DawnTook the back way to work this day. Wonderful low fog and clouds over Lake Hennessey. The two weekends before this shot I was hiking in knee high grass & weeds and had no ticks. About a half hour after this shot back at my office there was a tick crawling on my arm. I did not even walk thru grass. Must have dropped on me from a tree.
Slalom CourseI had not been out shooting for a few days and was getting stir crazy so I took a drive up Big Canyon Creek between Cobb and Middletown. At this spot there were ants on every tree and rock. I had to find a rock in the middle of the creek to put my backpack down. The mosquitoes were thick and huge too. I'm surprised none showed up in the image. View the photo larger in the gallery and check out the detail of the water.
Under the Tuscan Sun
You might ask "what sun"? Well there was plenty. This is from a hike sponsored by the Land Trust of Napa County and is an annual hike hosted by John Tuteur of his ranch and surrounding lands of which this is one. The day was hot, sunny and relatively cloudless which does not lend itself to fantastic photography so there is nothing super "fine art" here. I wanted to record this event but have something interesting to look at so I played around with the Infrared filters in Photoshop. It has perked my interest in getting an actual on-lens IR filter.
