About This Blog

I began this blog in 2011 in an attempt to improve my photography and showcase all of California's 58 counties. I didn't quite make all of the 58, I missed three and I will try to rectify that in the coming year. I'm not sure how much I improved my photography because I always seemed to be in a rush.
In 2012 I plan to take more time, perhaps not post every day (this is one thing I did accomplish in 2011). I also plan to expand beyond California and include images from other parts of Western United States. I will continue to include a map showing where I was when I took the picture. I will keep commentary to a minimum, long photo essays will continue to be at Martha's Musings.

General Grant aims to impress doesn't he? I'm glad to say I've made the gentleman's acquiantance.

Is there a camera in the world that can take in all of General Grant at once?

I love these big old trees. Great capture. I think I have a shot of this tree, just the bottom and a sign? Happy skywatching!

A giant with its head in the sky.

I saw General Grant when I was a youngster...many years ago, now. I love those big trees!

This is a great photo, but photos don't really do it justice, right?
It's like trying to photograph the Grand Canyon. They are just too large...
