A Mojave Rattlesnake that I encountered on a morning walk. Actually my dog found this one first. (One of three we came upon in about 10 minutes). Mojaves are similar to Western Diamondbacks, but are typically shorter and much more aggressive. They seem to get up on the wrong side of the bed...

Not being one who has a green thumb, I am always happy to find something that God has provided, even if it is flowers on some weeds.

Well it's time to post another picture or two. Last weekend my daughter and g'kids came to visit for a few days. We took a trip to a not so well known National park, Chiricahua National Park. It has some nice trails and some amazing rock formations. This is one of the rocks that was probably...

Congratulations to All the finalists! Also Great job @nikonpup!! Congratulations to you also on a winning shot!

Got out yesterday to the Chiricahua National Park, which is a hidden (not well known) national park that is missed by many. It has some wonderful rock formations, one set which is called the Organ Pipe Formation for the towering pipe organ type rock formations. This is a series of four...

Entry #2 Look into my eyes!

Entry #1 Someone posted "Snake Eyes" already, but this is a "real" snake's eye I captured today. The eye of a Mojave Rattlesnake. (I crossed the path of three different Mojave's today, walking around my place on my morning walk.)

Week 36 Theme: Farming Again as the theme list gets smaller, it becomes harder to fill (I don't know how the 365ers do it. Ha!) Anyway, The following are some photos of part of a farming operation. Not what is usually pictured as farming, but it is necessary in some cases. I caught this...

@Jdeg "Are you able to read html email?" Yes, but even if I couldn't, shouldn't there be a subject listed in the email anyway? Yesterday it happened about 3 times. One time about 3 pm and two more times at about 7 pm my time. I am attaching a screen shot of one.

@RocketCowboy, aren't you closing it 24 hours early? Just asking.

Congratulations @wornish Nice composition!

I had tried to think of something that would work for this weeks challenge, but didn't think I would find anything. Then yesterday when I pulled up to church, I saw a couple of girls picking some apples. Yep, that will work. By the time I got the camera out, they were almost through, but I...

@Marcel or another mod, would you be so kind as to move this thread to the proper section in Challenges

There were some very good pictures submitted for this month's challenge. Thanks to all who participated by submitting and by voting with your likes. The TOP FIVE photographers and their pictures, in no particular order. Congratulations to each of you. @mikew @Jpar @Lolli-pic...

This looks like the start of a good thread. Thanks @aroy

Week 35 Theme: Old My wife said I couldn't use her for this theme :devilish:, so I had to find something else. Being stuck inside for awhile, this is about the best I can do for the category. An old iron and semi old butter churn.

Week 34 Theme: Extreme I am behind a week or so because I got something in my eye (welding slag, I think) and had to have it removed. The Doc said no TV, Computer... for a week. I am just now getting things squared around and feeling like grabbing the camera. Anyway this picture is the...

It's been sometime now since I was able to post something. (It's a long story that I will probably post in my 52 section). Anyway................. I almost thought I was a day late, and then realized that today was the cutoff, so here are some of my kitchen creations (another of many...

Week 33 Theme: Lock(s) The first picture is a typical setup out here in the wide open country. Locking a gate so many have access is accomplished by cutting a link of the chain and adding your own lock. Each person then has access using their own key to their own lock. Ha! Must be that...

A good example of a long lens on a 5300 getting good results is @wev. He has a Tamzooka paired with a D5300 and gets fantastic results. Of course I don't know if this is typical, but it is one of the good results. I have the 70-300 on my D5300 and it usually does ok. Sometimes I wish it...
