Was going to try an experiment today, actually I did begin the experiment by uploading a couple of #deer pictures from yesterday's Magical Morning to my Adobe Port as exclusive files through the Fotalia interface. However then I got curious as to why the Adobe upload interface didn't include the exclusive button and did a … Continue reading Adobe Exclusivity

The Art of Walking Away
Had a pretty good day today, have to say so myself! Started out with my usual hike up the mountainside with the puppies. It was a beautiful cool cloudy morning portending the rainy day we have had. The forest is beautiful this year, very green, almost like the rain forest of the Great Northwest only … Continue reading The Art of Walking Away
New Furry Friends
Met some new friends this morning... As I was striding along through the woods I felt eyes upon me and stopped to look around. In the distance I spotted the onlooker, a little fawn mule deer curiously peering out from the wildflowers. I didn't want to scare the little fellow so I didn't approach, just … Continue reading New Furry Friends
Real Live Troll
Too much traffic to go anywhere and too hot and sunny for picture taking today, besides I couldn't get past the troll anyway. Crazy as it is, I have a real live troll in my life... blond woman, fat ugly bleached blond chain smoking foul mouthed wretch of a human being about 50 years old … Continue reading Real Live Troll
The Work
Shooting the pictures is the fun part that makes it all worth while, but for a stock photographer there is a considerable amount of work to be done that isn't all that much fun. With the capturing of hundreds, even thousands of images comes the job of cataloging and editing and processing. Summertime would seem … Continue reading The Work
A Break in the Storm
Awoke to a beautiful clear mountain morning and a day off of work. But by the time I got done getting ready for the day the temperature was dropping and clouds had already begun to move in over the mountain, followed by a few flakes of snow to make it an official Colorado Memorial Weekend. … Continue reading A Break in the Storm
Deer & Crystal Reservoir
Pretty successful day today... Have been trying to find out about hours and fees on the Pikes Peak Highway via phone with no luck this spring. Specifically I was wondering if the reduced fee for visiting the reservoirs only was in effect yet. Today I was determined to find out for sure! Best way to … Continue reading Deer & Crystal Reservoir
Difference a Few Days Can Make
The weather changes fast in Colorado, that much is certain! A few days ago I was making my morning rounds, the gym, the grocery store, the library, etc. until I finally ran out of things to do. So I stopped at my favorite Pikes Peak viewing location to walk the doggies. When I was done … Continue reading Difference a Few Days Can Make
Dog Tired
Lol... there is nothing like a dog to get you going when you are "Dog Tired". It has been a rough week so far. Four punishing nights in a row on the loading docks, two early morning dental appointments for a friend, another early morning appointment at the oncology center for another friend. Fighting off … Continue reading Dog Tired
Deer Herd Adventure
This morning the Almighty was smiling on my photography endeavors 🙂 Thankfully I got a good night's sleep and awoke before first light and before the doggies had any interest in departing from their comfortable slumber. So... there was time for a healthy breakfast of coffee and some discounted do-nut balls from Walmart that I … Continue reading Deer Herd Adventure
