Difficult to type...so many bites on arm from Zeacliff.

I love how photographically comprehensive your trip reports are. Everything that I love about the alpine zone this time of year. Especially great shots of the harebells, they are so tough to shoot...as they never stay put!

Disclaimer...As I'm usually critical of high impact camping...I want to state that I slept on bare rock, on the ledge, without a tent, and ensured zero impact on the environment, which is ofcourse, the intent of the rules! Background: I've been slow to knock down my list of places to...

Oh...I miss winter...very cool shots!

I was gonna say, Kelly Ayotte was sooooo last week. Lynch nominated Michael Delaney to replace her: http://www.unionleader.com/article.aspx?headline=Delaney+is+Lynch's+choice+for+AG&articleId=2a94b899-0345-41ab-8c9d-4483fddfc1f4 So back to the question, is the AG an outdoorsman? Anybody...

A quick internet search this morning finds that this story has circulated both the US and World News Circut. Papers as far away as Tawain and Australia are carrying this story. And whenever the paper offers a comment or talk back section, inevitably there are remarks in the vain of: "Well...

I might be down for strange brew. I don't get home until 6, can call you after 5 if it's not too late?! I'll read the call...

One of the big phrases that circulated with this reckless hiker statute is that the hiker's actions must be against what a reasonable person would do in the same situation. I really hope that the state puts out a report on what was deemed reckless in this case. From what I recollect, he had...

I'm late to the party, but felt that I could add one piece of info. All editing done in photoshop elements II Everyone is dead on that the image, as shot, was under exposed. Fixing that tends to introduce noise and degrade image quality, but you aren't putting this on a billboard, you want a...

Heya...looking for a new place to combine a hike with a view of fireworks this year. I know a popular spot to do this include Black Cap in North Conway, and I've caught numerous displays on Washington, but what other peaks could overlook a good display... While generally curious, I'd love to...

Yeah...it's pretty subtle... The edit has a slightly darker, more contrasty background, and a vignette focusing the eye on the moose a bit more... Side by side: First the orig, then the edit:

Backlighting of a furry or feathery subject IMO is rather idea, as the translucency of the edges creates a nice separation between the subject and the background. The problem though is that when you have a bright background, and very dark moose, you have a contrast problem that can (doesn't...

Hi, Thanks for all the comments...it was just nice to be out in the field at dawn. The shots are all from either the st. Matthew's field, or the Sampler field in Sugar hill. There are many other lupin fields around the village, but these are the main touristy two. The key is to be there when...

There is a suprising amount of open space both in and around Pawtuckaway, as there are easy connections to both Bear Brook and the almost adjacent newly established Mulligan Woods. The area is huge, and full of deer. I've long thought that I were to put a Mountain Lion anywhere in the...

Naked hiking day got a big mention on the Daily Show last night i.r. the Governor Sanford Story... http://www.thedailyshow.com/video/index.jhtml?videoId=231545&title=Governor-Mark-Sanford-Is-Missing ~3:35

The fields of lupine are something I look forward to every year, and your slideshow of it is fantastic. Curious where you found the olde cellar hole...would love to photograph that sometime!?!

Indeed some fantastic photos here. Love the diapensia closeup, and the pano at harvard rock. All around fantastic though...almost as good as being there!

Virga would be mad at me if I didn't introduce her to all these pups... Virga is a tireless lab/beagle/border collie cross that many of you just know as 'the blur'. She is a slave to her nose, but is often blind to the animals she tracks when they are right in front of her. She doesn't like...

Looking at the forecast for the weekend, and the enteded school year ala ice storm, I figured that last night and this morning were my only chances to shoot the Lupine festival before they faded. Left at 4PM...shot sunset, slept in the car near the fields, woke up at 4:30, and was graced by...

I came across this cross thread of a cross thread... Seems like a 'small' sow with two cubs is a bit more tame than the autoroad would like around the two mile mark, where many trails cross. The picture set of an encounter with a motorcycle is both amazing and alarming. The autoroad is...
