Mushroom Fungus Of Oregon Video I have not made it any secrete that I have many photographs of mushroom or fungus of Oregon. From wikipedia, "A mushroom is the fleshy, spore-bearing fruiting body of a fungus, typically produced above ground on soil or on its food source. Mushrooms are not plants: they are a fungus. They eat organic matter, they do not photosynthesize like plants do." Mushrooms are unique. They grow most everywhere, if one just looks. Some can be eaten, though really I do not have this kind of experience to put such things in my mouth. Though many do!! This is some of my photographs of mushrooms I just happen to come across. I do not go looking for them, they just happen to be where I am. Be it on trees, growing on the ground, or like one species it was hanging within the trees! Like that species just fell from the sky! Now some have been eaten by wildlife, some have wildlife in the photo! Some mushrooms are very big. Bigger then Guy's hand! Some species are very little. Some species do not even look like it should be a living thing! Nature is pretty neat!

The Dells are, in a way, the Midwestern version of Niagara Falls: somewhere so overrun with tourist kitsch and unpleasant marketing types running the tourist traps, that one is almost embarassed to admit that the area, itself, is very nice to look at, once one leaves some of the unpleasantness behind. I went looking for images of Witches' Gulch that people had uploaded. This is one I found. I'll do some more looking later.

Do you feel confused while deciding how to choose the right things which makes your home just the best home in the world. There are very basic things which will decide the outcome of your efforts and we will list them down for you here. Walls color and High Contrast: Go for white color for the entire room and put a decorative piece like painting or statue with high saturated color to stand out in the entire room. What we are going to tell you now is not rocket science. White color makes small rooms look big. Also, what is important is to know whether that room will have ample sunlight or not. If one had carefully watched how colors play magic during sunset and sunrise; they would know that blue, violet, red, orange and yellow are the main ingredients to bring up those amazing combinations. Rooms with less sunlight, we recommend brighter shades of yellowish orange. The dark rooms will then be illuminated using violet- bluish lights to bring up the same magic. We recommend that if you buy paintings which are red colored for decorating room, then don't opt of statues which are blue. Go for Red vases as centerpieces and while doing that, you would be setting up a room which is high on contrast but still not overburdened with all the colors in the world. Focused Lights on main paintings: Lights are one of the most important factors to keep in mind before undertaking any sort of interior designing/re-designing. As we have discussed earlier, the shades and the extent of lighting required will depend on the amount of natural light which is available in the room. We recommend controlled lighting which can be scaled up and down as per the requirement during various times of day and night. We recommend using contrasting lights which means that on blue or purple walls, use lights which are red, orange or red yellowish in nature but use blue or purple lights on bright walls. The key to choose the right lighting is to consider the size and style of the room. Some of the import

Some days the Mule Deer show themselves, while other days they do not. Saturday was a day to show themselves, and it just happened to be a snowy day here in the high desert. The buck was funny, he did hide his head, or tried the best he could at first. After some time of just watching him, snapping some photographs he must of figured I was ok and not there to hurt him for he came out in the open long enough for me to get quite a few shots, adjusting my lens as I went. With his breath seen and the one antler looking like it does.... he is unique looking! The does and the older fawn stopped long enough for me to snap some photographs as well. For those new to Mule Deer. The Mule Deer are very big deer. They are called Mule Deer due to their very large ears.

I am very pleased to get these shots of this Northern Harrier. I got these a couple hours ago down the road where we have seen this bird and another or so in a pasture. These birds have been seen on private land and I do not trespass so when this opportunity arose today, while this Northern Harrier was not on the private land I took it! While doing my research on this bird I came to realize why this bird of prey had a problem being still for me. Blending in is what I try to do with the environment, but being quiet is another story. This bird realize on hearing as much as sight when hunting. This bird was hearing me coming! The male and female of the species look very different I found out as well. This Harrier is the male of the species. I thought this Northern Harrier was on some prey, however after looking over the photographs it appears to be on some grasses.

I got hooked on digital photography when our owner gave us his digital camera to use after he saw that we could add actual food pictures to our menus and promotional materials instead of just cliparts. The first round of pictures was really simple, real novice looking. The knob on the camera had this letters that was strange to me. Slowly but surely I learned how to use this different settings. Now my pictures look better, not great but better. Presently I have two cameras one a point and shoot type. And another slightly professional, a Sony. Our company has since changed the company camera which is in my care now. Its a Canon EOS 1000D and its great especially for closeup shots. I still do food shots for our menus and promotional materials but now I always bring my cameras around everywhere go.
