“Hi I’m Brad from San Diego County and this is my mostly landscape/nature blog. I usually prefer remote or semi-remote landscapes with water and/or trails, and to avoid modern structures & roads in my posts/reblogs. I also love animals, so you will find some of those as well.  I post some of my original photography on this blog which you can find by searching for #bkpic in my main blog or also at my original only personal photo blog @bsscenics, which has mostly landscape/scenic images I’ve taken in addition to a few other photo self assignments - and there is some overlap, but I can be a bit lazy posting to @bsscenics.

Chasing the light

Nov 20, 2015 Green Valley Falls area of Rancho Cuyamaca State Park

OK, I also bought a fuchsia ...and a few other potted plants. With my crop sensor Canon 90D, my 105mm macro lens is approximately equivalent to 168mm on a 'full frame' DSLR.

Autumn Walk Around Willow Lake... with my dog Ginger. Nearing the end of peak color the weekend before Thanksgiving. (re-edited, gave the images time they deserved - blended in and revised a few distracting elements such as unnaturally bright areas in the clouds)

Mid Morning at Roosevelt Lake... about 65 miles Northeast of Phoenix, Arizona

Willow Lake Landscapes... with a long lens. The trees are budding and spring is evident all around. Water levels are lower than this time last year, but hopefully we will have a nice long wet monsoon season this summer ;).

At Roosevelt Lake the largest lake completely within Arizona's borders

Daybreak at the Grand Canyon... It was finally time to return (it's only been 11 years :/ though most of that time, it was a 10 hour drive, instead of 2 1/2 hours). I started my drive from Prescott around 4:20 and arrived for this photo a little before 7. The wind was blowing about 30 mph with gusts to 50 mph. In spite of the blustery weather, I need to plan more visits ;)

Morning by Willow Lake The water continues to recede, as the city lets more water out into the local aquifer ...and as temperatures rise. Early in the day is the ideal time to commune with nature.
