Big City Wildlife

As many of you already know I'm a sucker for Pikas, squirrels and Marmots. The first night of my trip to Colorado I stayed at a cheap motel in Denver, Colorado. When I pulled into the motel parking lot and was unloading my photo gear a squirrel bounded across the parking lot. It climbed up a small tree beside my car. I was surprised to find that the tree was an apple tree of all things. The squirrel grabbed an apple and climbed a ways up the tree. I grabbed my camera and tried to find an angle I could photograph the squirrel from. I ended up being so close that my camera wouldn't focus that close so I had to back up.I made several images but this one was my favorite. After taking a few images I plucked an apple and I have to agree with the squirrels choice of dinner. The apple was sweet and delicious. God's love and blessings upon your day, chris

Rush of City Life

Sometimes I just want to record my abstract impressions. Today I spent some time going over some of the images from last weekend in San Francisco. One image that really jumped out at me was this one of a bicyclist riding down the street on the edge of China Town. It symbolized the rush of the big city. The city is just abuzz with activity so very different from the small town where I live in Northern California. God’s love and blessings to all, Chris
