I'm not certain whether these are birch or aspen, but there were huge stand of them at 9000 feet by Kolob Reservoir. I love the white and green contrast
Located near Everglades NP, this swamp was home to hundreds of birds and alligators, not to mention beautiful, large Cypress trees.
The geography of this place seems more that of the mountains than that of Oklahoma. It was around New Years and there was still quite a bit of snow on the ground.
Taken at sunset at Bryce Canyon National Park. Wanted to take this shot in this park for about as long as I can remember. :-D
This is my first attempt at shutter speed and F-stop manipulation. Lucky for me the waterfall was flowing particularly strongly that day.
This was taken in the early morning as the sun rose, illuminating this arroyo as we looked for the special birds of Arizona.
It had been at least 13 years since I had last been to Flaming Gorge when I took this picture while driving through on my way to California.
I have never been colder than when I took this photo of the sunset at Two Harbors, Minnesota.
This was taken near Wolf Creek Nuclear Power Plant in Linn County. I've seldom seen anything as foggy as it was this morning, and it made for some great shooting (photographically speaking that is)
Further north around San Francisco it is almost always foggy at the beach, so it was quite a pleasant surprise when I went to this state park and it was so sunny.
A view of Sentinal Dome from the Yosemite Valley. The second of my two favorite Black and White photos (I have a color version of this shot too)
I took this when I came back to Kansas in January on a birding trip. The water was still and the sun just beginning to rise, allowing a great reflection shot.
This is the view looking down from the top of Vernal Falls in Yosemite NP. The spray from the falls created a beautiful rainbow.
This was shot way up in the mountains outside Zion National Park. The trees are either birch or aspen. I liked how the road just fades away into the distance
This was taken from the Yosemite Valley, it's one of the few Black and White photogrpahs I've taken.
This large storm was following us as we crossed through Utah, dropping rain, hail and snow on us. The lighting made for a pretty interesting photo
