From the Hillsborough River

I was kayaking on the Hillsborough River when I saw this egret catch a salamander. At this particular moment, the salamander appears to be facing the egret just before he was devoured. I'll post a more friendly animal photo in my next post!

Kayaking the Yellow River

I went kayaking on the Yellow River this last weekend. It turns out that it was a prime deer hunting area so things got interesting when we started hearing gunfire. We did not get to the scenic camp site that we were hoping for, but this spot was good enough. I took this photo just after the sun went down.

My First Post

Welcome to my blog! I am pretty new at blogging so please be patient as I try to work through it. The purpose of my blog is to share my photography with family and friends and to provide a bit of background information for each photograph that is shared. This photograph was taken on the Little River in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. It was late afternoon and the weather was windy and blustery, but I was having the time of my life taking photos in the solitude of the park. I like this photograph because of the diagonal lines created by the rocks and water flow. I hope you enjoy it.

Canon 20D, 17-40mm lens, SS 1'6, f16
