    Then there's the Bar-Afie, who I photographed in such a state under a Flatrock Plains' waterfall. I'd post it, but the women here would go insane. :)

    At dark, we were hunkered down in a valley during this trip, Keith ... and, admittedly, pretty beat up. One of the chilly evenings promised clear skies, but neither of us got out to view. There's a used wilderness campsite atop Roaring Plains that I pointed out during one of our hikes, which...

    Time Lapse Photography

    These are great. Have you considered making some field recordings from the locations and combining these with the images? That would be wild!

    The open grasslands you're mentioning are the real eyecatchers from Bear Rocks on the Sods, PD. I did a little research on the open area and found this quote -- Bear Rocks' natural heathlands and open grass balds were originally recorded in 1746 by a survey party that included Peter Jefferson...

    Whipperbill In The News

    I'm pretty sure the editors/art director thought Alfie was a big bush, otherwise it would not have made the cut. :) Thanks for pointing out the Atlantic City Weekly exposure, Guy. There's a single-page spread in the current issue (October 29), which looks nicer than the web album (IMO). I...

    Alfie did quite well answering your questions, Turtle. But it's that obvious geographical/geological layout you mention that keeps me going back. Here are three photos from a previous trip to Dolly Sods: Alfie ... let's pack again.

    Thanks ... I need to get back and do it right. Learn the mountains, see what works, what doesn't, be patient with light, etc. Time with a place so distant is such an issue. Don't fade away, Alfie. I need you. We need you. Get it back.

    Just returned ... spent ... after spending a few days wandering the Roaring Plains and Flatrock Plains (plus an hour or so at the Sinks of Gandy) in wild & wonderful West Virginia. We were buttressed against one of my favorite places in the known universe: Dolly Sods. She, in all her glory...

    Thanks, everybody. I was too tired for words Tuesday night, when I posted ... and am not in much better shape now. But the pitchers seem to tell the day's story nicely. You were missed, Alfie. Not replaced.

    bay days

    The wind was whistling ... Only about twenty minutes to spend at the southern tip of the state (soccer tourney) -- wolfed down a Wawa shortie at the point, plus some KandyKakes, chug-a-lugged some iced tea, which left about five minutes to take a few whipsnaps. It'd been a while since...

    Tuesday with Alfie

    Glo ... this batch I dedicate to you, and to your wonderful way with words. I believe these fungi are called hen-of-the-woods. She's growing just outside our front door. What a year for beauty of this nature.

    Anyone's kids attend this?

    My kids didn't attend. I had 'em down at the march in D.C. last week, where they were carrying signs calling our fine prez a fascist and comparing him to Hitler. If the forum goes down the political road, as it seems to be leaning toward, I'm going.
