Thanksgiving close to home has me thinking about focused photography elsewhere.

Photos from a wonderful weekend camping at Second Beach, near La Push, Washington.
Lady Bird Johnson Grove Bridge
Two years ago today, I stood under a canopy of fog at the Lady Bird Johnson Grove of redwood trees near Orick, California.
Stay Warm, Cold-Weather Friends
The cold weather today made me think of this photo from December when it snowed here in Seattle. It’s sunny and a brisk 31 degrees F outside now, but friends in Portland are digging out of a foot of snow from the last couple of days! Stay warm.
