Reconnecting with nature through hiking, camping, and paddling
Another image of waves breaking against the Kona shore just before sunset.  This one feels more serene than Kona Coast, Sunset, I but the two photos were taken within minutes of each other along the same stretch of the coast.  The key difference being the length of the exposure.  For this photo I used a 2.5 second exposure while the other was only 0.3 seconds.
This alpaca was standing with the sun on its back when I approached. Â In order to properly expose its face I had to massively over expose the background. Â In this case that was probably for the best. Â There was nothing particularly scenic behind the alpaca and the white background really focuses attention on the animal.
This sheep resides at Maymont Park in Richmond, VA. Â It was showing off its winter coat when we met it in the late fall.
I was up early one winter morning and discovered this blue jay feather laying on a frosty bed of moss. Â Click on the image to see the larger, more detailed photo.
