On this Memorial Day, I hope that you take a moment to reflect and remember those who have served, those who have sacrificed and those who have given the ultimate sacrifice.

Cliche and nothing special, I know, except that I took this at 11:00p.m. last night. And we have almost another month of daylight gain before the solstice. Wonderful!

Today's photo is a repost of one of the first photos that I posted. If you look at the water near the transmission line tower, you'll see the bore tide coming in. Actually, this is a 'baby bore tide'. The actual bore tide was the day before I took this picture, but I think it's pretty cool nonetheless. Turnagain Arm is one of the two locations in North America that has a bore tide. The other being the Bay of Fundy in Nova Scotia.

Monday will mark the one year anniversary of this blog. Thanks to those who have visited.

My main purpose for starting this blog was to...
a) share my enthusiasm and love for photography
b) share the photos I've taken
c) become a better photographer, which the pactice of trying to produce photos daily for this blog makes think about.
d) Just have a good time.

I've been doing that. As long as I enjoy myself, I plan to continue. I don't know if I'll continue to post daily, but I'll see how it goes.

The white thing near the center of the photo is a young bighorn sheep. This was taken on yesterday morning's hike on Bird Ridge. It was very windy when I took this and had I taken it a second later, the photo would have included an eagle that was soaring on an updraft and it would have been lined up perfectly with the sheep.

Unfortunately, that didn't happen. By the time I was ready to take another photo, the eagle was way above me and out of the frame. Oh well.
