Eggs and Candy and Kids Oh My...


Above, the look you get if you ask Little Bit to share her cake pop. Below, sugar high was in full sway when I arrive.


Everyone was glad to see me.
All the little childrens engaged in an Easter egg hunt.....except Hudson, Little Bit, and Madison
Above and below, Justin on the trail of EGG.

Above, Madison and bubbles. Below, Hudson and, well, perplexed.

Above, one of the grandkids is from Laos... but we've never seen her face.
Above, Mrs. Aunt Grandma Di fixin the fixins. Below, nut cake. Appropriate.

Above, Rachel ponders the meaning of life, Hudson ponders the meaning of cake pop, and Johnathan just ponders.

And pokes....
A touching moment between father and daughter.... father on right.
Grandpa levitates the critters.

Piling on. All photos taken with the Nikon D3 and 24-70mm lens. ASA 6400 indoor, 400 outdoor, F5.6.

Reservoir Clouds

Snuck over to Pendleton Heights today to take some pictures by the Reservoir. The Neighborhood Association is doing a bang-up job of clearing brush from around and in the old water container. It's looking really nice. Some color and some black and white were taken as storm clouds rolled in. The last shot, admittedly, is not at the Reservoir but at North Terrace Lake.
Nikon D3, 24-70mm all shots, ASA800, multiple exposures manipulated in Photoshop and other software.

Cliff Drive Rainy Day

Drove along Cliff Drive today and snapped a few in the rain. It is particularly lovely this time of year. Just don't come to see it on the weekends unless you're prepared to walk.


Above, Hole 4 of the Cliff Drive Disc Golf Course....


North Terrace Lake above.



Above and below, North Terrace Lake. All shots Nikon D3, and either 24-70, 14-24, or 70 -200mm lenses. ASA 800. No multiple exposure.

My mated pair of geese are back again this year. Nest building will begin soon on the island.

Clouds

Wednesday the wind and clouds combined to create myriad shapes in the sky.... and quickly.
Above, Indian Mound in silhouette and below in contrast to the gray sky.

The rest of these images were taken from the top of the Mound above looking North and below looking up....All were taken with the Nikon D3.... multiple exposures at the same time and then I selected three or four or nine... to merge into one HDR image. 24-70 zoom used for all.

What is interesting to me is that the above shot looks remarkably like those looking down from the space shuttle over the oceans...
