Unidentified Harmless Snake

Garter Snake

As I moved on with the rototiller to the next patch, I disturbed another guest in our garden. As far as I know this is some type of garter snake. When I picked it up, it left a real musky … Continue reading →

The Failed Rescue Attempt

Ant Larvae

I’m in the process of moving some iris around and pulled up some of the black plastic I had in the back for weed control. Underneath was a large ant colony, with several large clusters of eggs. Most of the … Continue reading →

Studio under construction

The weekend ended doing a session with a mother and her two children. She had seen one of the photos of Jessica and Maren and wanted something similar. Between 2 days with Alissa, and the family shoot, I took over … Continue reading →

Knowlesville Posted on June 21, 2002 by MattApril 13, 2019
Alissa

I’m putting together some package deals with the local inns to feature vintage clothing portraits so I’ve been working getting samples for web sites and room info packets. This weekend I hired Allisa, a professional model, to get a bunch … Continue reading →

Galen in the garden

Knowlesville Posted on June 16, 2002 by MattApril 13, 2019
Galen

Ricky does more cute things than Galen, and so he gets featured as picture of the day more often than his brother. I actually took this picture earlier this week to help alleviate that imbalance, and I’m showing it today … Continue reading →

Driving #3

Saturday morning I had more practice driving a fire truck, this time Company 3’s. Terry, who is also a probationary member, is about a month ahead of me, but we both took turns driving the truck around the parking lot … Continue reading →

Loleta fire

The thirteenth happened to be very unlucky for the people who owned this house/church in Loleta. An unattended fire in a wood stove started a house fire, and the Ferndale Volunteer Fire Department was called to assist in putting it … Continue reading →

Mary, our hairdresser

Mary wearing 1880s Bustle Dress

We were informed today by Mary, our hairdresser, that yesterday’s solar eclipse was best around 5:15. We didn’t look at it until around 6:30 so maybe there was more to it than we thought. The Eureka newspaper (called locally the … Continue reading →

You’re so vain, well sort of

Solar Eclipse

We had a request for a solar eclipse picture. So how bright is the sun? Well this shot was taken at 1/2000 @ f22, with a 4x neutral density filter and two gradient filters. That wasn’t enough, so I ended … Continue reading →

Ricky in Jail

Skunks

Sorry for the quality of today’s shot but I had a hard time getting the subject to pose where there was decent lighting. We’ve seen a couple of skunks in the yard this week, and fortunately they seem to be … Continue reading →

Gertrude Jekyll Rose

I came home from a firecall today to find a two point buck back by the garage. I ran inside and grabbed the 500mm lense and camera expecting to get a great picture of it. Unfortunately the batteries died just … Continue reading →

Ferndale Pet Parade

Today was Ferndale’s annual pet parade, and this year it was quite a bit longer than last year’s. People in Ferndale sure have a great sense of humor! Maren was dressed as a cat, and was pulled along by Emily. … Continue reading →
