Last Sunday while we were in La Push, Washington, we had the bonus thrill to watch the Coast Guard train in surf rescue. I talked with a few of the sailors and after I said, "that exercise should get your adrenalin pumping", one of the sailors replied with, "just the opposite, the exercise helps us control the natural reaction of raising our adrenalin". I thought about it and realized that the adrenalin rush for a photographer also works against the ability to hold the camera steady. I need more training exercises.
Welcome to my Photo Blog. I'll try to mix it up, there are lots of different types of photography. Much of what I photograph is in the landscape category. My passion regarding nature started as a boy. The Cascade mountains of Washington were where my father introduced me to hiking and fishing. Watching a bald eagle use its strong talons to pluck a large trout out of the water was the kind of experience that had to be part of my future. I hope you enjoy my photo-journey.

The Coast Guard In Action
