Yet another mushroom in Washington State #photography #nature #macrophotography #mushroom #pnw #resist

Here's s cup fungus from Washington. The state, not the cesspool. #photography #nature #mushroom #fungus #macrophotography #resist

I believe this is a kind of coral fungus. #photography #nature #mushroom #fungus #macrophotography

Here's another mushroom growing straight down out of the bottom of a fallen log. This was taken with my camera sitting on the ground, pointing straight up. Took a few tries. #photography #nature #macrophotography #mushroom #resist

Here are some glowing Washington mushrooms. This effect was achieved in-camera by using a small LED panel and strategic placement to backlight the mushrooms. #photography #nature #macrophotography #mushrooms #washington #resist

There's probably some reason they call them Bigleaf Maples. #photography #nature #fall #leaves #forest #hiking

I believe this is what's called a split-gill mushroom. Apparently there are a lot of different types. This one was about the size of a little green pea. #photography #nature #mushroom #macro #macrophotography

Had a really cool encounter with a river otter! As I was walking along the beach it came trotting along in front of me toward the water. I tried very carefully to put my stuff down and get my phone camera out without startling it. Turns out this otter was almost as interested in me as I was in it!

Here's a hermit crab with an iridescent shell. We found this in the tide pools near Salt Creek Campground in Washington. #nature #ocean #tidepools #washington #rainbow #iridescent

Double Arch in Arches National Park #photography #nature #landscape #archesnationalpark #utah

This shot looks like it was taken inside a cave, but in reality I sat my camera with a wide angle lens in a small pocket eroded into the rock with a shutter timer to give me time to get out of the shot. #photography #nature #landscape #capitolreefnationalpark #perspective #utah

Got this shot in Capitol Reef National Park by putting my camera with a wide angle lens in a small hole - about a foot across - in the rock face and pointing it out. #photography #nature #landscape #geography #capitolreefnationalpark #utah

Just for fun, I edited this mushroom in Photoshop to make it appear to be glowing. #photography #photoshop #editedphotography #nature #mushroom #glow

My primary goal while we were in Michigan's upper peninsula was to find a yooperlite. In daylight, yooperlites are indistinguishable, plain looking rocks. You have to hunt them after dark with a UV flashlight. #photography #nature #landscape #michigan #yooperlite #rocks #rockhound #sunset #sunrise

This is the Great Prismatic Spring in Yellowstone. It's hard to believe all that color just sits out there every day. #photography #nature #landscape #yellowstone #rainbow

A photo of the moon that I took with an old vintage 400mm lens. I think it was an Olympus. The lens didn't fit my camera so I had an adapter on order, but it hadn't arrived yet, so I had to manually hold the lens up to my camera body to get this shot. #photography #nature #moon #clouds #night

I took this in Montana, on the north side of Yellowstone. The flat, soft lighting due to wildfire haze gave this photo a painterly look. #photography #nature #landscape #mountains #haze #blackandwhite

Wildfire haze made this landscape shot on the north side of Yellowstone look so moody. #photography #nature #landscape #mountains #haze #blackandwhite
