Golden Cathedral, Neon Canyon, Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, Utah, USA by Brian W. Schaller
Featured in “AMERICA’s National Parks and WILDLIFE Habitat” – June 2009. A reflection in the pool of water at the base of Neon Canyon’s Golden Cathedral. This angle shows only a small part of the sandstone wall surrounding this large alcove in the Utah desert. The green areas are plant matter growing on the vertical rock wall. Changes to original photo include: moderately increased red and green, greatly reduced blue, slightly increased saturation and reduced brightness. Normally this is a reddish brown sandstone which can appear “golden” but probably not in quite this shade!

Rainbow and Castle Geyser by whalegeek
Castle Geyser, Upper Geyser Basin, Yellowstone National Park, USA. A thoroughly unpredictable geyser, Castle Geyser nevertheless often offers spectacular eruptive events that can last for an hour or more. First super-heated water shoots into the air soon to be followed by a steam event that, at least in this case, encompassed the better part of an hour. During late Spring and the summer months when the sun is shining, when Castle Geyser erupts between 6 and 8 pm, a curvaceous rainbow will appear in the mist falling from the steam cloud. Canon 50D, Tamron 28-75mm lens, shutter 1/60, f/18.0, focal length 28m, ISO 100, Manfrotto tripod, Wimberley II head. May 26, 2009

Trees, Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument, Washington, USA by Brian W. Schaller
A stand of trees stripped bare by the volcanic blast of 1980. Photo was taken in the summer of 2002. The top half of the image is original except for the monochrome treatment. The bottom half is a mirage, or reflection, of the top half. In reality, all the trees shown here are standing on a small hillside with tiny newborn trees growing around them.

Bison Calves by Jay Ryser
I had a heck of a day last week on Mt Evans, and got to photograph Pikas, Marmots, Mountain Goats. The cherry on the top of my sundae was finding bison on the way home. Man, I love living in Colorado. It was just after noon when I ran into the bison herd, and they were all sacked out in the hot sun. Not the most exciting images in the world, but I couldn’t pass up bison. These calves were probably born in late May/early June.

Gription by Jay Ryser
Despite some reservations about heading up Mt Evans on a holiday weekend (crowds and traffic), the place was nearly empty. Well, empty of people, but my usual cast of alpine critters were around (probably because it wasn’t a holiday weekend for them). Close to the summit at 14,000ft, these 2 kids were using the mountain as their own personal playground. When they weren’t trying to shove each other off the rocks they were casing each other around, leaping from rock to rock, running at full speed. Just running at full speed at 14,000ft is impressive, but running at full speed while leaping from rock to rock, never loosing their footing, was just amazing. Old NASCAR fans may recall Jr Johnson talking about the gription of his car’s tires (technically, I think the term he used was “tarrs”) – these mountain goat kids definitely have GRIPTION. In this image, this kid (only 3-4 weeks old) has given the slip to his playmate, ran between these boulders, then pulled a hard 180 degree turn and then ran UP the rock face. It was quite the athletic ballet. I have a LOT more images on my WEB SITE Mountain Goat (Oreamnos americanus) / Mt Evans Wilderness Area, CO / Sony a700 / Sigma 24-70 f/2.8 ISO400, 1/2500sec, f/2.8

Pa'ako Beach by Sharon Mau
Pa’ako Beach Makena Maui Hawai’i Kai Makani Ho’ohinuhinu Copyright © Sharon Mau 2009 / All Rights Reserved Why is the ocean blue? / There are several theories: Blue wavelengths are absorbed the least by the deep ocean water and are scattered and reflected back to the observer’s eye Particles in the water may help to reflect blue light The ocean reflects the blue sky Most of the time the ocean appears to be blue because this is the colour our eyes see. But the ocean can be many other colours depending upon particles in the water, the depth of the water, and the amount of skylight. The colours we see depend upon the reflection of the visible wavelengths of light to our eyes. Besides being pretty to look at, colours and the light they come from really do have the power to impact people in many ways. Along with the aesthetics of light and colour, there is real science behind each and every sight we see. Each flash or ray of light, each shade of colour that light makes visible, and each time our eyes receive the messages to see them, we are reminded of a special relationship — one that is often overlooked because we simply take seeing for granted. We miraculously experience a bright, vivid world because of the workings of our eyes, the wonders of light, and the brilliance of colour. The Franklin Institute provides a good explanation of how we see colour. Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi
