This is very different from my usual work. Taken on a trip to a nearby island.
This photo was taken on a dreary Katoomba day yet as usual the Three Sisters stand tall and proud in all their glory. Tale of Three Sisters – Katoomba, Blue Mountains Katoomba is the largest town in the Blue Mountains and is home to the famous Three Sisters. Legend has it that they were three beautiful young women who had fallen in love with three men from an Aboriginal tribe from the foothills. Tribal lore prohibited the union, and a battle ensued. A witchdoctor turned the women to stone so they wouldn’t be harmed, but he was killed and no one could undo the spell. They are impressive. You can also hop on the cable car or take a ride on the scenic railway down the steepest railway incline in the world to the floor of the Jamison Valley. Source: www.smallguide.com.au

Featured in “National Parks of the World” – June 2009. Featured in “Rocks and Stones” – November 2009. Here in one of the hottest places on earth, large rocks appear to race one another around a dry lake bed leaving long trails behind them and small piles of dried mud in front of them. No one has seen them move but the evidence shows that they do…somehow. The practical theory is that the combination of seasonal heavy rains and very high speed winds can push these rocks, sometimes weighing as much as the average person, across the slippery muddy surface of the usually dry lake. On cold winter nights, sheets of ice probably also contribute to the movement of these “sailing stones.” [Wikipedia entry – Racetrack Playa] [U.S. National Park Service website] / Copyright © 2004 Brian W.

The Tipton Place – Great Smoky Mountains National Park, USA – Back View This grand old cabin belonged to Johnathan Wade Hampton Tipton. Colonel “Hamp” had a carpenter build this home after the Cival War. Hamp was a veteran of the revolutionary war. The land came from Tennessee Land Grants in 1821 aquired by his grandfather, William Tipton, better known as “Fighting Billy” for his heroism in the Revolutionary War. President Andrew Jackson was his friend and said that if he had a company of Tiptons, he could “lick the whole British Army”. Although Hamp never lived in the house, his two daughters did. Miss Lucy and Miss Lizzie were schoolmarms in the cove in the late 1870’s. The homestead eventually included a smokehouse, a woodshed, corn crib, blacksmith shop, cantilever barn, and an apiary for bees. William Tipton owned a great deal of the cove by 1836. He deeded much of the land to friends and family, including John Oliver and Peter Cable. The three of them established the Primitive Baptist Church. The home went on to be owned by Jim McCauley in 1879, and then by John Oliver’s grandson William Howell Oliver in 1887. William served as an ordained minister of the Primitive Baptist Church from 1882 until the time of his death in 1940. His family lived in the home until the land was aquired for the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. > Companion Piece http://images-1.redbubble.com/img/art/border:blackwithdetail/product:laminated-print/size:small/view:preview/1223691-1-the-tipton-place.jpg!:http://www.redbubble.com/products/configure/4160293
One of my favorite spots in the Sierra Nevada, Convict Lake is tucked into a beautiful canyon. At dusk the wind can pick up pretty good as it rushes over the mountains and through the canyon. The clouds literally change from minute to minute. The lighting is constantly changing as the sun drops behind the mountains as well. I tried to capture it the best I could.

A Black and White shot of Uluru highlighting the drama of the moment. Stripped of the usual colours this images is able to impart the events rather than just Uluru itself. High winds blowing the young Acacias and the high clouds breaching across the sky make this image stand out amongst the rest. Uluru, Uluru – Kata Tjuta National Park / Northern Territory / Australia
shot this while hanging out with some of the bestest folks in the world last month in may (marianne, wanda, judy, sally, joe, lal and emily) / this HUGE mama bear was out with her two cubs grazing in the field. id have to say, to date, she is the largest bear i have seen in the park. she has to weigh in at a good 500lbs or more. she is beautiful!! and the best part is No Tags on her ears which means she hasnt allowed the tourons that like to chase the bears to piss her off :) i know i watched her a few days sooner and she was literally teaching her cubs to steer clear of their worst threat…humans. / best if viewed larger Shot this in SS mode SS of 1/200 / Focal length at 500mm / Fstop at F5.6 / ISO of 100 / EV at 0
It was a swooping, stalling, raven, that led my eye to this incredible backdrop of color. Resting on the wind created by the falling water, the bird appears nearly still in this 1/60th second exposure.

One of the many ever changing hot springs in the nation’s most diverse National Park. Describing Yellowstone is like the parable of the four blind men describing an elephant – “The elephant is like a tree”, says one. “No, this animal is like a snake.” “What are you talking about? The elephant is cool, hard and pointy…” The last says, “The elephant is like a frayed rope, hanging from the sky… And be VERY CAREFUL when you pull it!” :-) Yellowstone is a park that deserves more than a “drive by”. There are National Parks that have more of a single note, one gets a sense of what they are about after a short visit. The Grand Canyon and Bryce Canyon National Parks are about their respective canyons, for example… Yellowstone has a wide variety of ecosystems… Mountains, lakes, rivers, valleys, canyons, geysers, hot springs. And due to the geology of the area, the geothermal features are always changing. So, the point of all this rambling is, if you are planning a trip to Yellowstone National Park, plan on spending as much time as possible! Pentax K20D, Pentax 16-50mm zoom. 385+ Views /
