MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

I must have taken about 15 shots of this tree and fireplace, using all the different settings on my camera, but the one that came out best was the one I took simply using the automatic focus and the flash. Anyway, I hope you all have a wonderful holiday season.

This would probably look better if I just cropped it down to include only the clouds. I took this on the flight back to Vegas from Massachussetts.

Ok, so my camera was totally misbehaving at the wedding I went to last weekend, but I kind of like the way this one of the bride and groom dancing came out, even if it is a tiny bit out of focus.

Here's the last decent picture of fall colors for the year. I took it one handed while I was holding a big branch out of the way with my other hand. If I had more hands I could have held the branch hanging in the top left corner out as well, but alas I do not.

I actually don't like this picture, but my friend does. I figured I'd let you make the decision as to whether or not it sucks.

More pictures of Cedar Breaks. Is this place cool looking or what?

This is from one of the overlooks at Cedar Breaks National Monument.

So I basically just stole this idea from Psycho Intern, but it still looks cool, and I took this picture.

And just to prove it, here's another one.

I really like pictures like this that show people walking along some kind of path. This was taken in Logan Canyon just minutes before my four year old threw his cousin's tennis ball down a steep incline and into the river.

A few more autumn leaves from when I was in Logan Canyon.

Fall colors are great, here's one of leaf litter that I took over the weekend. More will likely follow.

Are you brave enough to drink this?

The sound of people chasin' money, and money gettin' away.

A palm tree at dusk. This could probably look really good if it were touched up a bit in photoshop, but it's still kind of cool looking.

Not great pictures, but I haven't posted anything for a while, nor have I taken any good photos recently so you're stuck with these. I hope they at least make someone want to go to the beach.

Maybe not the most impressive photos ever, but it's been a while since I've posted anything and I don't think I really have much else so it'll have to do.

Maybe it's because I've lived in the desert too long, but I love how green and leafy everything is along the coast in the Pacific Northwest. I should probably try to live there for a little while at least.

Ok, so this isn't necessarily a good picture, but I love the look on my son's face here. He's just seen someone he wants to go after with the hose, and the look on his face says it all. He's definitely up to no good.

Some wildflowers growing in a field in the Portland area. It was rainy.
