Yes, ultra getting low tides and high tides this time of year. Good for checking out the tide pool reefs.

Things are a bit drippy here in the PNW

We were lucky to visit Yellowstone a few weeks ago before the floods. Such a beautifully bizarre
place even though it was very crowded and overrun. The geyser basins were very interesting and the wildlife is abundant.

For you photographers out there, my son (a professional photographer who loves to shoot with film, especially large format) gifted me a 1964 Pentax Spotmatic camera for Mother's Day and that's what I took these photos with. It was fun to shoot with a film camera again and try to remember how to use a fully manual camera LOL! The film was Fuji color negative ISO 400 and the lens was a Sears/Roebuck 28mm.

VERY nicely done!

This is Jenny Lake Grand Teton National Park.

great image. Right time ; right place.

Wow! That is a great shot!

Spotted this cute little mink running along the beach beside the campground last night. Better have a sharp eye out, there are tons of eagles around.

ahhhh, film!! Very well done!

Black Bear Wanders through the Campbell River Estuary near Thunderbird RV Park on Tyee Spit

Ultra-low summer tide allowed us to explore the Willow Point Reef in Campbell River once again. Such colorful, interesting ocean critters out there!

A little ocean spray

Beautiful shot Herb!

Lots of eagles on the beach today. I wonder if this is mom, dad, and the kids

This guy was fishing and patience paid off . A couple of salmon went by, but he wasn't interested. One even smacked him in the face and laid on the rock next to him for a few moments.

Sunset on the horizon

Nice! :love:

A nice little break from the summer heat. Overnight rain wetted everything down, and low fog covered the Discovery Passage

A pretty little slot with a creek running through in Southern Utah.

Nicely done !

Since its triple digits (temp) here today, I thought I'd cool it off a bit.... Crater Lake Or.

Looking back at our campsite at Thunderbird RV Park, low tide on the Campbell River Estuary. Over the years, a tremendous job has been done to restore the estuary to its natural state after many decades of industry damaging it.

I've been wanting to see a moose in the wild for my entire life. Finally saw one across the estuary at Henry's Lake, Idaho! This young bull moose was shot on a film camera with a 200x zoom lens.

Nice ! We were camped on the Selway River in ID back a few. It was getting fairly close to sunset and as I was sitting on a big rock next to the river a Moose (cow) and her calf decided to cross the river about 20 yards away from me. A little closer than I prefer. She just gave me a look of non concern. I just froze.It went into the shallow waters did a little feeding & continued. They are the strangest looking animal I've ever seen.

This morning's RV back window view just after 7am. as the sun is coming up. The estuary grasses are starting to turn golden as summer winds down and the days get shorter.
