Chipmunk On A Log

Slightly obscured by several sticks, I just really liked the colors in this photo.


Let There Be Light 2020

I photograph this Let There Be Light statue, by George Grey Barnard, at least once a year, why should 2020 be any different. I think of her as the goddess of photography since light is the photographer's medium.

 

Fee, Fi, Fo, Fum...

 I seem to be on the right track...

I'm sure it's just a few more "feet" ahead...

But first, a little story about Nis, Elina and Loumari...

Here we see Nis contemplating his own reflection.

Here's mom, Loumari, a little pregnant with a brother for Nis and Elina.

Here's Elina with some of her cherished things.

A closeup of Elina.

So where is the dad giant, Isak Heartstone? Well, believe it or not, it turns out that he was killed by the city of Breckinridge, Colorado so they didn't live happily ever after...


Bird on a cattail

At Lake Nevin, in Bernheim Forest, lots of birds like to alight on the cattails.

God-Rays In Autumn Trees

A great photo opportunity occurred on an Autumn morning in Bernheim Forest. It had been a hotter than normal week but then a passing cold front brought showers through the nignt and much colder temperatures in the morning. All of this had the effect of causing rising water vapor everywhere. Water vapor plus the rising sun lead to an opportunity to capture god-rays in a landscape shot.

Blue Visitor In Golden Forest

Though they are large birds, the Heron in this photo seems small against the large bank of autumn foliage. Though getting an eyeball on a Heron is a relatively new experience for me, I had no idea they would alight on skinny tree branches.

A Cabin In The Woods..

Actually a lot bigger than a cabin, the Bernheim Forest Education Center sits nestled in the surrounding autumn color. Kinda makes me feel sorry for the people who don't get to live in Kentucky..

A Symphony Of Color

It's as if the statue by George Grey Barnard was conducting a symphony of color. Taken this morning, shortly after sunrise. The dreary gray sky helped with the saturation of the colors.

Let There Be Light...

I always try to photograph the "Let There Be Light" statue whenever I visit Bernheim. Today there was definitely light...


The inscription that goes with the statue.
