Ghostly Water in Bordeaux, WA

One of the gems of the Olympia, WA area, and one that I don’t actually utilize nearly as much as I should is the Capitol State Forest.  I have explored some, but it came as a complete surprise when I found out that there was a ghost town, Bordeaux, WA, just feet from one of the roads leading to the forest.  Now that I do know about it, I took the opportunity to visit this past weekend and made this image, which I have titled Ghostly Water.

Bordeaux is a fascinating place, and I will be sharing more images from there, but I will also be going out and shooting there more.

Palouse Clouds

I could write a number of different things about this image of some clouds I made over the Palouse over the Easter weekend.  I could have written about the value of a well made snapshot.  I could have talked about being with family on holidays.  I could have even written about my move away from dslr technology and into the mirrorless world, but I think I will just share this picture, that I made as a bit of a teaser image for some friends who I will be shooting on the Palouse with the first week of June, and leave it at that. :-)
