From a visit to the St. Louis Zoo a while back. Since it was cool out the cats were out... sleeping. But still out. :) Settings: ISO 100, f/5.6, 1/250 s.

If Mt. St. Helens is the queen of the cascades, Mt. Rainier would be the king. I made this photo coming back from eastern Washington on US HWY 12. Funny thing. I used to live very close to HWY 12 – just

Just came across this photo yesterday. Not particularly amazing, but it appears to be my very first astro photo. I made it outside Toutle, WA back in the summer of 2013. My focus is off, the tripod wasn't

Made this photo on a field trip in Eastern Washington back in 2013. This part of the state is known as the Channeled Scablands. Settings: ISO 100, f/9, 1/250 s.

Made this photo a few years back in Yosemite. Walked up to the base of the falls before the sun was up, which in Cougar country is an interesting thing. But I had a knife and a tripod, so we're all good.

Down in the city for some coffee. One of the better establishments here in St. Louis. Made on iPhone

From my first time on Tunnel Viewpoint. There's more to Yosemite than this point, but it's one place where you can see most of valley. Like Mount Nebo. Settings: ISO 800, f/18, 1/2000 s.

From a visit to the St. Louis Zoo last February. The cool thing about visiting a zoo in the winter is that all the jungle/tropical animals are out and about. Settings: ISO 100, f/1.8, 1/1600 s.

Another photo I made along US HWY 50. Phone reception isn't the best in these parts of Nevada, so when we found some decent reception, we pulled over, which allowed me (the driver) a chance to make a few

Made this photo last fall driving along US HWY 50, "the loneliest highway". It makes its way through some pretty amazing places, like Austin, NV. I'm now kicking myself for not going inside this

Random still-life at @thejebi's place in Lacey, WA. Settings: ISO 200, f/3.6, 1/60 s.

One of the cool things with having an early morning appointment get canceled. Made this photo in Bend, OR last summer. Settings: ISO 50, f/16, 10.0 s.

Some place near south of Boise, ID, off east-bound I-84. Settings: ISO 1600, f/5.6, 1/320 s.

The great queen of the Cascades, seen off of Spirit Lake Highway. Settings: ISO 100, f/10, 1/160 s.

From a theater last April. Settings: ISO 800, f/2.8, 1/100 s.
