Every once in a while, a quick snapshot turns out to be far more than expected. I snapped this of my wife on a whim while we were walking down the street in Llandudno, Wales. Her family has roots there, and we’d been visiting – it’s an incredibly peaceful city, just the right place to sit back and relax. We had a lot of surprises there, including someone singing John Denver’s Country Roads on a street corner with a Welsh accent (I think the Kingsman must have gotten the idea from that trip). But the biggest surprise was how this quick snapshot captured the beauty and spirit of an amazing woman.
Denali on a ‘clear’ day
Visiting Denali national park is always spectacular, and no matter the weather, there’s always good shooting. If it’s rainy or overcast the critters come out, and if the sun’s shining, you might be one of the 30% of visitors who get to see the peak itself. This was on our last day of the trip, leaving the park. Not a bad sendoff at all.
Friday Photo – Flying Sea Lion in the Great Southern Ocean
When we were in Tasmania, we took a photo cruise down into the great southern ocean. The scenery was spectacular (I’ll share those another time), and there was tons of wildlife. On an island off the south tip there was a huge colony of sea lions basking on the rocks. Somehow this one had climbed, jumped, flown? about 20 feet up the side of a near-cliff. So this must be the very rare Great Southern Flying Sea Lion.
