My Favorite Photos

No idea what this is but it was fun chasing/trying to get a decent shot!

Boy at heart - add 4 wheeler, a slough and the gaunlet of challenge by buddies. Bottom line---not moving, mud flying, seriously stuck! LOL

What an amazing machine!!!

I'm constantly surprised at the popularity of this picture. This is the first outdoor picture with my 20D....taken late on a sunny winter afternoon in Feb 06 when I first started. That tells you how long I've been taking pictures. I had everything set to auto, the flash fired and it didn't take a picture. (So much for male confidence! LOL) The sun was going down so I tried again. Somehow, I had set the timer so I waited for the shutter to release. Obviously I was clueless but the results are nice. Very little has been done to this picture except cropping. Some minor adjustments in photoshop. The red was so bright that I had to tone it down. Enjoy!

Filters used for painted effect.

My first hummingbird picture. It's a little soft but worth posting. I grabbed the camera and shot this photo through a picture window. Took two frames...second frame was empty.

Mother loon was trying to keep a low profile on the nest when I took this photo.

Success....I've caught lunch!

An old school house.

Valley City ND has a number of historic bridges. In my opinion, this one is the best one. Originally, this was a single plank suspension bridge which took the students across the Sheyenne River to Valley City State University.

King School, Barnes County ND. I had to edit out some plumbing pipes sticking out of the ground to make this look better.
