Mendonoma

I’m continuing my look back to September 2022 which I began yesterday, and today’s post includes images from Black Point Beach in Sea Ranch  and Gerstle Cove near Salt Point (Sonoma County) and  the Point Arena Lighthouse (Mendocino County). This was really one of the nicest coastal trips we’ve had, and I would be very happy to spend more time […]

Black Point Beach

Today I’m looking back at September 28, 2022, during another of our trips to the Sonoma and Mendocino coast. We were staying in a beautiful little house in Sea Ranch, up on Timber Ridge Road — no ocean view from there, but we were in the middle of a wonderful coastal redwood forest. And there were hiking trails that took […]

Memory Monday: March 2016

Looking back at some images from March seven years ago, documenting the change of the season from winter to spring in my area. I don’t believe I’ve shared these before — or at least not for a long time. I was finally starting to realize how much fun it was to photograph wildflowers and colorful blooms in people’s yards.

High Sierra summer

I was going to share a few more images of the Castle Peak area from July 2006, but for whatever reason I can’t get them to load properly. So I’ll just go with the ones that did get through and save the rest for another day. Probably all for the best anyway!

Memory Monday: Camping days, 1987

This week I’ve re-scanned some prints from 1987 (and one from 1993) which I shot at the Sonoma coast. I shared some of them before, back in June 2017, but I always enjoy looking back over these memories and the adventures I shared with the Big Guy and two very wonderful dog companions. Allow me to quote from that earlier […]

Memory Monday: Looking back at Zack

For the last few months of his life in 1993, our Zack (also called Zeno) was an only dog. He had a tough time getting used to the loss of Phoebe, the pitbull who was like a mother to him. Despite his lifelong health problems, we always took Zack on outdoor adventures, and he would follow the Big Guy everywhere, […]

Memory Monday (Mexico)

This week I have a handful of slide images from December 1981 that I’ve hesitated to share for awhile. Although I was present for at least some of them, my memories are very vague, and I wish I could remember more details. I actually kept a small journal but it provides only sparse information. My family was spending Christmas and […]

At Castle Peak

Whenever I take a deep dive into my photo archives in the search for any specific item, I usually end up stumbling across other images long forgotten. That was how I came across these pictures which I shot back in July 2006. I was using my new Kodak EasyShare Z7590, a compact little point-and-shoot with 10x optical zoom, and the […]
