2) & 3) HDR images of Tacoma's Union Station.
4) A sunset of an Amtrak Cascades train at Steilacoom.

On Saturday 1/18/14, Jeff Ray, a Guitarist with the Jersey Boys, was hit and killed by an Amtrak Cascades train in Auburn WA. Jeff was standing in the tracks for a photo (taken by his girl friend) of him with Mt. Rainier in the background. While not quite the same as professional (and...

I was in Sedona AZ recently for a wedding and stumbled upon the Chapel of the Holy Cross. A full moon and the beautifully lit chapel, cried out for HDR. This one used up 10 images. When finished running it through Photomatix and further tweaking in Lightroom, I wasn't happy with the sky. So...

I ran across this Bald Eagle a couple years ago on a cruise to Friday Harbor and back.
A few sequences earlier, I got him/her actually chasing a harbor seal into the surf.
He seems to be in command of the situation and I thought some creative captioning might be in order. Just off to the...

My wife, youngest son and I, made our first visit to Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge this past Sunday.
Got there sort of late in the afternoon, but it turned out to be a nice couple of hours. We were able to see and photograph some critters we'd not seen before.
Shortly after starting...

I embarked on Nina's training program this past weekend at the Rainier Agility Team event in Elma.
Saturday's results were pretty nominal as I was limited to using my Canon 100-400mm f4.5-f5.6 lens. Most of the time I shot at ISO 3200 with my 40D, and while Lightroom 3 does an great job of...

I work a lot in my truck, so I try to find places to park that are either scenic or somewhat private. Sometimes I'm lucky enough to get both. Yesterday was such a time and while taking a brief break, something caught my eye. So, out came the 100-400mm lens and what I found is below.

My family took a later afternoon trip out to the Nisqually Reserve and were treated to the spectacle of 12 Bald Eagles, mostly yearlings, playing around the river.
Unfortunately, not a lot of good light, so some the images are of less quality than I'd prefer, but some of there antics were...

For me, 2009 was certainly a difficult year in all things but photography. So far in 2010, I haven't been inspired to take anything but test shots for a newly acquired GPS logger. So I'm glad we have this thread, it's helped me appreciate some of the photos ops I enjoyed last year.
My main...

Figuring that photographing the moon in less than optimal light and location, was better than not seeing it all (likely the case for Monday and Tuesday), I headed to Manchester, across the Sound from Seattle.
I arrived a little later than planned, as I was delayed herding a wayward sheep back...
