Moon Over the Canadian Rockies
This is in either Banff National Park or Yoho National Park in Canada. (Oh, how I wish I'd had a GPS-equipped camera when I took this.)

Fungus #607
I found this example while walking to school one morning a while back. I believe it's commonly called "turkey tail fungus".

Dead Man's Walk
Oxford, along the side of Merton Field. In centuries past it was the path to a Jewish cemetery, hence the name. This is an old-school black & white film photo, which I accidentally overexposed, but I liked the resulting ultra-grainy result.

King's College, Cambridge
Winter evening in Cambridge. And a rare clear one at that! The distinctive towers of King's College rendered in silhouette just as the sun was going down.

Lindisfarne Castle Silhouette
Lindisfarne: a bit naff as a day trip, but wonderful as a place to stay for a few days. (The locals call it "Holy Island" rather than Lindisfarne, but that makes me think of Holyhead instead.)

Ellis River at Pinkham Notch
New Hampshire, in the White Mountains close to the foot of Mount Washington. I clambered out onto a large rock in the middle of the river, risking many thousands of dollars of camera gear, to get this shot!

Fungus and Moss
I'm always on the lookout for fungus when hiking. It can make for intriguing compositions and it's fun to examine closely something you'd normally pass by without noticing. Taken in Moses Cone Memorial Park on the Blue Ridge Parkway.

Lady's Slipper in New Hampshire
OK, it's just a flower photo. But Lady's Slippers are some of the toughest flowers to photograph because they insist on growing near totally non-photogenic backgrounds. This is a rare example of one that cooperated.

Chateau Chenonceau in the Loire
This is a reflection in the river Cher of one of the most famous chateaux in the Loire valley in France (and certainly one of the most photogenic). Taken during a week-long bicycle tour of the area.
