Siblings

Taken during low tide in Belcarra, my son and daughter busy looking under rocks at the crabs and other icky creatures. Though they are nearly five years apart from each other, he is an extremely patient big brother and takes great care of his little sister. I can only hope this continues through their adult lives.

Don't Bee Afraid

Shot this the other afternoon while doing a little weeding in the front yard. Noticed that the clover flowers were attracting the bees so I ran in and grabbed my 100mm macro. The bees didn't seem to mind much with the end of the lens barrel poking precariously close to them but passing neighbors probably had a good laugh watching me on my knees, crouched over camera in hand.

Komodo Dragon

I shot this at the Woodland Zoo in Seattle while testing out my new Pentax DA 70mm Limited; managed to get close up to the glass amidst packs of screaming kids that obviously didn't bother the komodo dragon behind the glass.

The Dandelion

Caught this on the way home a few weeks back walking through a trail near my house. One of those rare times when you see a dandelion head in isolation and not having been kicked or swiped at by a passing child.

The Horse's Eye

Shot this at the Van Dusen Gardens on the way out. The horse topiary was tucked away in the shade and the noonday sun gave the eye a surreal color to it.
