Our adventures start out usually early in the morning.
I woke up late, yes I admit! I got up gosh at 4 am or something. Guy was already up and drinking his coffee. I only have to get myself and my camera ready. Guy has the truck, the dogs, our lunch and extra truck supplies to get ready.
We left here a little before 5am, before the sun came up and hopefully before to much wildlife movement gets started.......
This is from a local writer who just happens to still be in high school.
He has been writing now for years and just this year has gotten the confidence to go public.This is his poem, with my central Oregon sunset photograph.
This is one of two Red Tailed Hawks (Chicken Hawk and known as other kinds of Hawks depending on where you live), that was following me Sunday down in the canyon where the Metolius River feeds into the canyon.
Whomever tried to keep the roof up to date, kind of. At one time while at this spot a doe jumped out of one of those windows scaring the crap out of me since it ran right by me.
What is interesting to me, got me thinking (oh oh she is thinking again ha), we are central Oregon BUT we are not central Oregon.
We are not included in many central Oregon happenings. People think of Bend and Redmond when thinking of Central Oregon.
Photographs like these do not come around a whole lot.
This is a set of photographs of the Mule Deer and Faith, Hope and Charity commonly known as The Sisters Mountains.
Everyone who follows me knows how I feel about nature and wildlife and to get these photographs I am rather tickled.
At the right place, and the right time.
Nature is a wondrous thing. At times doing things that frankly, amazes us!
The selenelion effect made these photographs come out rather neat looking, only with some cropping done. This selenelion effect is when both the eclipsed moon and the sun can be seen at the same time. Of course I get what I am given and these photographs are what I got. A well known fact is, I dont do night time photography.
It was so cold Saturday morning here in Jefferson County Oregon!!
Without much more talking, here are my photographs from the Lunar Eclipse here in Central Oregon.
It Is Just To Hot! Who says wildlife does not speak our language? Many birds of prey were caught with their wings up to cool themselves. I caught one bird panting even! Oh this one knows I am there.
When I take photographs I take them for me first. I went really public with my photographs a little while ago on this computer, some of you have even been with me through this process. With all the stuff I heard about computers and all.... I just kept them off the computer. Now with over 92,000 visitors to my site I think I have hopefully given people a little entertainment sharing our life over here in Oregon?
I am enjoying showing and selling my photography to the world on the computer! I am even doing photograph calls n....
I was doing something rather today when I ran upon some photographs I have not shown yet.
I do have many of these photographs that have not had a write up about them, so I was in the mood to do this tonight.
This was back in June and one of these photographs already has been on the market and in some peoples homes already. Not sure why I never did a write up of this series?
I got my mare when she was a yearling. Really to keep my gelding company, however she is such a hoot and the camera loves her!
We stopped off at a spot and I noticed these bright blue birds darting here and there.
Quick little things!!
They seam to be very acquisitive as to what we were doing too!
I read where these birds survive our cold, however yesterday it got up to 68 degrees!!
We were up in the Malheur National Forest last Saturday and got a couple photographs.
Guy had planned to go to a spot for photographs where we would hike around.
This was the first trip in our dodge ram we just picked up. Our chevy suburban is no longer and we like the Ram truck, but we really loved the suburban and of course it was paid off.
WOW did things not go as planned!
