Smoky Sunset
I went to Yosemite the other day. To say the least the air quality was poor, and once again (see my last weeks post) had an effect on my photography. This is the sun setting next to one of the Three Brothers. Taken about 4:45 in the afternoon. Even at that it was a day in Yosemite and that can’t be all bad. I also saw a bear but only had my cell phone with me. The only time during the whole day I wasn’t carrying my camera.
Ich war neulich in Yosemite. Um es gelinde auszudrücken, die Luftqualität war schlecht und wirkte sich erneut (siehe meinen Beitrag in den letzten Wochen) auf meine Fotografie aus. Dies ist der Sonnenuntergang neben einem der drei Brüder. Aufgenommen um 4:45 Uhr nachmittags. Selbst dann war es ein Tag in Yosemite und das kann nicht alles schlecht sein. Ich sah auch einen Bären, hatte aber nur mein Handy dabei. Das einzige Mal während des ganzen Tages trug ich meine Kamera nicht.

A couple of months ago, Friedhelm challenged me to take a couple of photos using the Pep Ventosa Technique. Here, one of those photos, a castle-like modern home in California. Enjoy!
Dogwood at Calaveras State Park
Currently many photographers are chasing Fall colors in California. I found some great dogwood colors at Calaveras State Park in Central California. The large Sequoia trees work great as a backdrop.
Enjoy and keep on photographing!

Bee Heaven
A favorite place to photograph in Arizona is the Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix, especially in the spring, which seems a long time ago now. The bees were busy all over the gardens that include every type of cactus you can imagine, as well as many other plants well-suited to this desert environment. This cactus bee was so involved in pollinating this prickly pear cactus that he let me get up close and personal and even posed.

Country Views
I took this image while taking an evening walk. I’ve always been grateful to live in the country and be able to witness views like this as the sun sets. Hopefully this image brings you feelings of peace and joy!
