Five-Hundred Word Challenge 414: Forest of Little Importance
Upon the rolling ocean lies the forest for which we cannot perceive unless it is one that we immerse ourselves first in immersion oil in order to increase our magnification, as that is the only way to see the forest … Continue reading
The Expansive Dune
The dune at the entrance to Smiths Lake is massive. I’m sure that there’s bigger ones out there, but this one seems to cover such a large area. I like how much detail there appears to be in the sand, … Continue reading
Talk
A photo of three pigeons. Two are having a minor squabble. I was watching these pigeons for a while as they were bathing in the water and I wanted to get a few shots of them in motion for the … Continue reading

This was taken during the most recent field trip to Smiths Lake. Three people walking across the dune to see what lies beyond before starting research for the day. I think that the space of this photo gives an idea … Continue reading
