Ground perspective: fire photos

More fire, more photos... Theme: ground perspective

Save those orchids!

Fire on the ground

We burned 150 acres yesterday, the first burn of the year, many more to come. It did not burn as well as we had hoped but we got acceptable results. Here are a few from the day, I didn't pull out the camera often enough.

Flying... always

Played with the camera on the flight from Atlanta back home. Just some creative attempts... enjoy.

Gulfport, MS (After Katrina)

Katrina passed through here three years ago, it's taking some time to get it cleaned up.

2009 Calendar in the works

The rest of the photos can be found here.

I just finished going through all my photos from 2008 and I have selected 13 photos for my 2009 calendar. If you are interested in a copy of this calendar please email me and I can get you my mailing address and also yours. A 8.5 x 11" calendar costs $14 and a 11 x 14.5" costs $22 including US shipping. These prices are at cost, check out the photos and let me know if you like them. I will be getting them printed by Costco, I used this service last year and I really think the quality of the calendar was very good. If you have any questions email me, and I will try to answer your questions as best I can. Thank you for taking your time to check this out.

Recent trip to the Panhandle

I spent the week up in Tallahassee and here's a few photos from the trip. I might post the story about the BBQ and the story about the honey on post.a.card so I will save that for then. The panhandle is a different place, I enjoy it, but my body has gotten too used to being warm. When the mercury dips below 50 I have to seriously bundle up, maybe I have become soft in my times down here in FL.

yes it is.










Goodman's BBQ

Misty morning

I took these images in the past few mornings on my short walk to the office, I love the dew on the plants and spider webs. Maybe next time I will put on my macro lens.

So ends another day

Grasslands

I took these photos of the grass coming back in the area we burned about a year ago, seen here.

Boo

Happy Halloween

Catching up...

Here are a few photos to catch up...

Charlotte, NC returning from Boise.


Swamp buggy trip on the refuge.


Sunset over the swamp

In the last picture, I am going to work on burning that area this year to knock back the wax myrtle.

Boise walk-a-bout

Took a stroll down the river to downtown last night, here are a few photos from the trip.

Trip down the river.

I took a walk this morning, I went down river. I met a nice woman who is a teacher, and I took a few photos. It's always great to be able to walk down a river in the middle of the city, thanks Boise.

Moon over the cross

I am in Boise, ID for the next two weeks, I am sure there will be more photos later.

Bikes and Kegs

I picked up a hell of a deal on a kegorator yesterday, and now I have Sierra Nevada Pale Ale flowing! Also, we worked on Tristan's bike for awhile and then took it for a spin, love that bike!

Cruisin'


Condensation on the tap, all we have is a Fosters handle right now, if you are looking for a gift for me, I will except all cool tap handles or good stickers for the beer fridge.


Brian and Moe take their turns.

Also the waves were good enough to go surfing on Labor Day so I spent some time at Wiggins, no photos... just fun.

Deficient wipers

photo - Lexey Swall-Bobay

My wipers went out on me on the drive home the other day, not a good thing when living in Florida. So I had to sit on the side of the road until the rain let up, people are in a hurry no matter how much rain on a Friday, not to mention a Friday before Labor Day weekend. Later that night I joined some of the NDN crew out on a light painting mission, the bugs were bad so we spent the time in the car.
