taken @ Northern California Coast:


Bowling Ball Beach near Point Arena, California at a minus tide:


Point Arena Lighthouse, there are lightkeeper homes there about 100 yards from the lighthouse that you can rent. really an awesome place to stay as the lighthouse and lighthouse keeper homes are on a spit of land that juts out to sea so that there are waves crashing on the bluffs in front and in back of the homes. "Forever Young" with Mel Gibson was filmed here and the Gazebo that they made for the movie is still standing, a popular spot for weddings:


taken near Fort Ross, California (a California state park which is a replica of a Russian Fort):


Lincoln Memorial, we visited Washingon D.C. in spring 05 with my son's school:


Washington Monument, this was taken from Arlington National Cemetary:


Jefferson Memorial, statue of Jefferson is visible in middle of the building:

Um, if you mean the pic in my post, that's a leopard :D I was about 20 feet away on the back of a truck.

But on the subject of cheetahs:







I got pretty close :D

here are a couple of pics of a "smoking device" that me and my old roommates made. the first pic made it onto consumptionjunction.com. that thing had to weigh 50lbs and worked very well. that was a real bomb at one time as well.

i really miss living in that house.



Well I have to say you win the award for the most awesome "smoking device" ever. Way too cool man. Do you still have it?

I'm glad she is going well! She looks healthy in that pic - minus the equipment of course. How much did she weigh when she was born?

Kevin, those are the kind of pics I take obsessively.

Both of those firefighting pics are awesome, but I find the first has those rings of light which makes distracts me from the image and makes it look overprocessed.
The second is very good!

I like the stop vandalism sign lol
Thank you. I designed the stencil of it to send to my friend Hannah there, so I had to get a picture of the devestation I had helped to create. It's in the middle of nowhere just north of Thief River Falls if you ever wish to see it in person.
