Pond On Fire
I went to the pond at McMillan and Eagle to take a few photos as the sun went down on Thursday evening. I wasn’t disappointed. The sky was lightly feathered with clouds, just enough to soften the beautiful sun as it went down. The tall grasses around the pond added a little interest and the…

Another Trip Across Idaho
I made my way through Idaho once again to call upon some of my customers. As is often the case, I had with me my trusty camera. Here are my 3 favorites from the week.

Quick Trip To McCall Idaho
A quick road trip to McCall Idaho this morning brought some really cool photo opportunities. I pulled off the road at Sugarloaf and saw this amazingly huge Golden Eagle landing in a tree. I tried to get a little closer but I could only get within about 60 feet. The shot I’m sharing here is…

Shoshone Falls In 30 Minutes
I was meeting a colleague in Twin Falls this morning. As usual, I was early. Quite a bit this morning. I was there half an hour early. On top of that, the person I was meeting called and said they would be half an hour late. That left me 1 hour to kill and I…

Landscape Across Idaho
Again I get the call like Batman and his red phone. On Semiconductor has things to control that need wired and programmed. I spring to my van and rocket across Idaho to Pocatello to do the job. The drive really is not an exciting one. The vast majority of the view seems to be straight…

Waterin’ Hole
I saw this old trough being filled a little too full on the way to Malta Idaho and thought it was interesting. I’m not sure if the valve was broken or there was a reason it was left on, but it looks like it may have been on for a while.

Panorama From Malta
I had another little jaunt to Malta Idaho this week. Most of the trip was covered in clouds and stormy, but the clouds did break long enough for a shot just before I left. This one is basically from the front door of Raft River Electric’s office.

Malta Idaho
Where’s that? It’s where the office for Raft River Electric is at. Raft River provides the power service to a pretty large area including south Idaho, northern Utah, and northern Nevada. They also are putting in some security in their offices, including card access readers that I had to go down to program for them.…

The Idaho Sky
Another trip to Pocatello this week. I’ve been sent to On Semiconductor to ready an air handler that they are adding to their list of equipment running the facility. So across our beautiful state I go again. As I drove the 4 hour journey home, it occurred to me that this drive is one of…

Camping At Wallowa Lake
We went “glamping” this weekend. I’m calling it glamping because we really aren’t used to camping within 15 feet of other campers and within 50 feet of a restroom. While it was a little different for us, it really was nice. There was a great feeling of community among the other campers and the gondola ride up…

A Quick Trip To Cascade
This last week I got to install the software for the new security cameras in the Cascade School District in Cascade Idaho. I only stayed 3 days, but I spent what little extra time I did have there finding beautiful pictures just waiting to be captured. I took a quick hike to Blue Lake up…

The Boise Haze
With the almost unbearable heat this year comes the fires. Sometimes from storms or campfires, but always bringing the smoke. The Boise valley over the last few days has become a cauldron of heat and smoke, coating our lungs and giving us dreams of blue skies and swimming pools once again.
