The thistle's spines, piercing the first snowflakes of the year.

Courtrock Road
Looking back towards Monument from Courtrock Road. The blazing blue of a clear desert sky is even larger than this vast landscape.

Snow abstraction
I think this abstract tangle of snow and branches looks very painterly in a saturated blue. I prefer it to the natural appearance of the photo. What do you think?

Kimberly Orchards in the fall
Looking out at the North Fork of the John Day River, and the Kimberly Orchards. The fruit trees' colorful fall foliage changes from one grove to the next, a colorful patchwork.

Orchard Fire
The fruit trees at Kimberly Orchards are bursting with fall color. They look amazing against the deep blue of the fall sky, the muted reds of the rimrock, and the drab sage.

Monument through the lens
A frosty winter morning in Monument. One of my photographic inspirations has always been the photography in National Geographic. I am especially moved by the 'slice-of-life' photos of urban and rural areas that show the soul of a locale without glossing over the grit. I hope this photo conveys some of the beauty of Monument, along with the hardscrabble existence that living here brings.

Buffalo, Yellowstone
This big beefy dude was hanging out by himself. Doesn't he look both terrifying and delicious?

Once you're gone, the park is mine
Bull elk sits placidly on top of a dormant hot spring, chewing his cud and waiting for tourist season to be over.
