I woke a little later then normal this morning and proceeded with my normal morning routine–put on coffee, feed the dogs (giving Foster his anti-seizure medicine), checking email and reading blog feeds. I’d decided yesterday if this morning was clear I’d drive over to the Cooleemee River Park (Bull Hole) and see how high the [...]

I noticed the geese sunning and grooming themselves on this rock, strategically located in the middle of the river, but it was only after I slowly worked closer along the river bank and then out onto another upstream rock formation I became aware they had the company of several turtles as well. All seem okay [...]

The second day of the new year and I have yet to take a single photo. I haven’t been totally lazy as I’ve worked on last years photos, set up and tuned Fedora Linux on a new Netbook computer and enjoyed my wife having a few days off.
Oh, I also spent yesterday afternoon taking down [...]

Back in July I did a post on taking photographs at Bull Hole Park and swimming hole on the South Yadkin River near Cooleemee, NC. With the heavy rains this week, I headed back this morning to photograph the resulting water run-off.
This first photo is from July when water levels were low due to [...]
