Cottontail

There’s no point in showing you this photo in color…rabbit and surroundings are the same. Taken on our property. (See, I don’t need to drive 60 miles to shoot wildlife!) And no, they’re not that afraid of us. Or the dogs. Sigh.

Gone Fishing

I participated in my first local photographers’ group shoot today at Crystal Peak Park in Verdi (about four miles from the California-Nevada border west of Reno).

I wasn’t very lucky with capturing any wildlife, but there were plenty of bipedal creatures to photograph.

Magazine Cover!

I was contacted by the editor of el escéptico a few months back requesting permission to use the photo I took of James Randi at The Amaz!ng Meeting 2012. I agreed, with the standard attribution caveats and a promise I would be sent a copy of the magazine when it was published. And then, honestly, I forgot about it. Going through my mail yesterday I saw a plastic-wrapped Spanish language magazine amidst the junk mail and other periodicals I receive. At first I thought I’d received someone else’s mail. It took me a moment or two to realize what I was seeing!  What a shock to see that my photos had not been merely illustrations to an article within the publication, but had been used for the cover.
