Unfortunately I've been getting spam posts linking to malware sites. So I've added a word verification step to comments; hopefully it will eliminate that, especially if it's being done by automated programs. (Not that I'm getting many comments anyway...)

North Cheyenne Cañon

It's almost hiking season again, so I took the kids on a short hike in the not-snowy part of Cheyenne Canyon this morning. The light was flat so the pictures weren't great, but it was nevertheless very enjoyable.

I found the following interesting, halfway up a mountainside. It's a backhoe, apparently being used to repair the trail.

Snow On Easter

I'm dreaming of a white Easter...

Wrong holiday. Anyway, happy Easter.

Ice On Bushes

Here are a couple of late spring snow pictures freshly taken this afternoon.

Lunar Eclipse

We had a total lunar eclipse tonight. This is where I wish I had a great telephoto lens, something like a high quality 500mm, but that's not in the budget for the foreseeable future. So I'll just have to make do with what I have and crop it.

Snow In Creek

I haven't posted in a couple of weeks so I went outside to get a couple of shots of the remaining snow in the creek bed behind our house. They're not the most spectacular photos but at least they're something new to look at.

Centerport, New York

I spent a few days visiting my father and his wife in New York. I didn't get into the city, but did manage to get a couple of worthwhile shots.

This is from the Vanderbilt Museum in Centerport. This is worth seeing - the grounds are beautiful and there's an extensive collection of stuff from around the world.

These are around the Mill Pond, a tidal pool in Centerport. I took them at night to give a slightly different perspective.
