Just last summer in order to get to the water a person would have to drive all the way down this ramp, then onto a dirt road, then park on top of a dirt hill several hundred yards out from where I stood to take this shot. Now, the concrete ramp is submerged just feet [...]

Just last summer it would have been quite a hike down steep stairs that you can’t even see right now, as they’re covered by water in this pic, to get to these rental boats. Now there’s just a ramp to the docks.

Bridge Bay is usually the place from which we’d launch the boat each day. The houseboat in this photo is currently sitting above where we often parked. Dry land would reach almost, if not all the way, to that Island.

This bird flew over my head with whatever it is that it’s feeding to baby-bird. I quickly turned the camera on and followed it. If I wasn’t so excited about getting the shot while this beautiful bird’s wings were outstretched, perhaps it wouldn’t be slightly blurry. Oh well.

I took a drive through the mountains today, along Highway 44 from my hometown of Redding, California up to the mountain town of Susanville, California. Along the way I stopped to photograph a few things… A road crew was clearing trees to straighten part of the windy mountain road… some of their equipment appeale

The Canon G11 is a compact pocket camera. Set it on a tripod, opened the shutter for 15 seconds, and shot this pic of the Kutras Tract Aggregate Plant, which was used to move gravel on a conveyor belt more than 9 miles to the site of Shasta Dam in Northern California. Shasta Dam, by [...]

This afternoon was perfect for a nap. But naptime should never, ever interfere with lunchtime. When a certain hungry belly told a certain English Mastiff it was time to eat, a certain warm tongue introduced itself to my face. This is what I saw when I opened my eyes…

Sitting in an easy chair in Ted and Gayle Haggard’s house, listening to Ted share some thoughts… When you listen to Ted talk about the Gospel, it’s impossible to misunderstand: this man loves his Savior. Thanks for letting us spend some time in your home today, Ted. On my flight to Colorado to attend the [
