Spring Crazies
Sunday evening I went for a drive along one of my favorite roads in the Shields Valley. I’ve tried several times in the past to take this same shot, but was never able to get the height needed to reveal the field. Today I decided to climb up on top of my car and was [...]
Swan Pond
This scene came about north of Livingston on a very stormy day in the Shields Valley. Taken on the same photo drive as Thursday’s image, we were actually chasing a small hole in a large storm that had settled over the region. We followed it for about 100 miles, always trailing behind and [...]
When Rain Doth Pour

Hunter Aloft
As I wrote in a recent post, I’ve become much more of a bird admirer in recent years. There seem to be more large birds in this region, primarily raptors, and I can’t help but photograph them when the occasion permits. Today’s photo was taken, as so many of my recent images, in [...]
Absaroka Loom
This images was taken looking south into the Absaroka Mountains from the northern end of the Shields Valley. What strikes me the most about the photo is how the fierce blast of light on the foreground and dull, flat light on the background really compete with each other. If I hadn’t taken and [...]
