Low Water

McDowell creek is very low right now. This fall area is perhaps 30 feet wide. Because the creek is so low there are only 2 small 3 foot wide fingers of falls flowing and this is one.

Water on the creek

Off the beaten path at McDowell Creek. Well worth the trips, slips and dirty knees.

Fall Foliage

Visit Mellow Yellow Monday for more yellow!

Road & Sky

There are better images like this out there in the wild but I was play8ing with HDR (High Dynamic Range) in Photoshop and this is what came out. Started with 2 images and it is not bad but I guess the subject matter could be better.

McDowell Creek, Again

McDowell creek really is one of my favorite places around here. I still have not exhausted all it has to offer photographically.

One Yellow Leaf

A single leaf on some rocks on McDowell Creek

The Last Strawberry

With the rain and all the winter weather coming on, I don't know if this one will ripen.

Kick the ball..... KICK IT!!!

The dogs just cannot *wait* to go chase the ball! Now if William could figure out which foot is the left one to match to the shoe.......:-)

Fall in the yard

I have one tree in my back yard that is fully in its fall colors, the remaining are green. Just an indicator that things are about to change soon all over! (Expect more fall color photos too.)

Contemplation

Playing with and combining "creative modes" in my camera and this was created. I really like the results......

Hot Air Rose

A photoshop flower I created...... The stem of a rose and a hot air balloon as the flower. What do you think?

On The Vine

We have these grapes woven in our back fence and thought with the setting sun there could be something interesting...... (I did use some flash fill from the above left too.)

Deer?

William and I have a lucky day when we see deer on the way to his daycare. This morning we saw 30 wild turkeys and 3 deer. The turkeys are much less interesting.

After the Hail (SkyWatchFriday)

A hail storm had just passed through and clouds were breaking for the evening. I had my fisheye lens out and this is the result over my back fence. The calm after the storm.....
