  • Anticipation<br /> 5/28/2010<br /> A quick stop at Hampton Beach, NH, just days before Memorial Day, which marks the start of the summer season. These cottages are queued and ready.<br /> <br /> Thanks for all the comments on yesterday's "trees" image. That shot was almost SOOC (just some slight color tone warm up). I shot it at f22, 1/5 second, and panned up during the exposure. Sorry that some had trouble with the link to the alt view, for others it seemed to work ok (!)
  • “The clearest way to the Universe is through a forest wilderness” John Muir<br /> 5/27/2010<br /> <br /> I made two versions of this scene and am not sure which I like better. The other is here: <a href="http://bit.ly/cAWzC7">http://bit.ly/cAWzC7</a> What's your preference?<br /> <br /> Thanks for all the comments on yesterday's romantic fish images. The award goes to Art - I'm still laughing!
  • Brown Bullhead Catfish<br /> Edit: Thanks to Chuck B for his observation that these are more likely Carp than catfish. Thanks Chuck! <br /> (Best viewed X+)<br /> 5/26/2010<br /> I stopped by Lake Quannapowitt yesterday for some quick shots before work, and noticed a commotion in the water, right along the shore. What I found there were several pairs of Brown Bullhead catfish, averaging about 16-18" in length, cavorting and otherwise raising a ruckus. These gigantic fish were fascinating to watch. <br /> <br /> All around the lake's shore, there were countless more amorous twosomes. According to some locals who were walking by, 'tis the season for love.<br /> <br /> I took many images, some of which can be seen here: <a href="http://bit.ly/btPpxf">http://bit.ly/btPpxf</a>
