Photostory: Seagull Attack at Kyrping
We saw plenty of fauna in Norway (though certainly not as much as in Costa Rica). And while the species didn't really surprise us, their behaviors did. We passed lounging yaks, curious goats, and baying sheep (were we in Norway or Scotland?). And I was attacked by a seagull. (more…)

Can you believe it?? I actually forgot to post this yesterday! I feel so silly; I hope you'll forgive me. I also did not post as much to Instagram this week as I had originally intended. As you know, I'm moving away from Instagram and more toward 500px - though I…

Happy Monday! As I mentioned before, I'm switching up my schedule, moving these previously-Friday posts to Mondays. Some wistful scenery from distant locations should start your week off well :) With the move, this also means I have a couple of extra pictures this week; I'm sure you won't mind.…
WC: Photographing Frosty Elk
While autumn will always be my favorite, I also love winter. I don't like being cold - or, in the Northwest, wet - but I love the magic of snow. Ice is mysterious. Frost is magical. And they're all wonderful to photograph. (more…)

Backpacking Alaska – Day 5: Bears
Ordinarily, this post would be for my monthly photo challenge, but that didn't seem too popular, so I'm tabling that for now. Perhaps I'll revive that sometime later. In the meantime, you get more bears! In fact, this is the last daily installment of my grand backpacking adventure through the…

Happy Friday, and welcome to almost the last post of the year! I still have one more weekly challenge for this year, but this is the last full week. Do you like these Instagram reviews? This first image was from our cliffside discovery on the Oregon coast. We were so…

Happy holidays, everyone! We're so close to my favorite holiday of the year: Christmas. For us, it's a time of coming together with family I only see once a year, eating far too much of my mother's amazing cooking, boisterous laughter over drinks and games, and the excitement of seeing…
