Classic Pictures

Thanks for visiting! We've got new pictures again. Yes, finally we have our Alaskan vacation pictures posted to share with you. It only took us a couple of trys to figure out how we could do it. I guess if we weren't too cheap to pay for a website we wouldn't have had a problem, but oh well. There are some great shots, and lots of them. Enjoy!

If you are interested in having any of the pictures let us know. All of the pictures on this site are compressed to save space, so we would recommend getting the higher resoultion files from us rather than saving them from this site.




Featured Photos

Towering Presence

Here are some pictures I took out West at the Hoover Dam. The low level of Lake Mead makes for some cool pictures.

One of these days I will get around to posting the rest of the pictures from that day.










Spillway

According to Wikipedia the spillway has only been necessary once since it was tested in 1941. It's pretty obvious in this picture that it will take quite a bit of precipitation to need it anytime soon.











Covered in Leaves

We got this shot of our Nephew over homecoming weekend while he was playing in the leaves. It must be fun to play in a pile that's a couple of times bigger than you.

As always (I might have a sickness or merely an addiction), I've Photoshoped it to give it a more dramatic effect.

Since this was taken over homecoming weekend, here's the link to that page.







My logo

Here's my little tree from Monterey. I thought I might put this up because I am always talking about traveling to Monterey, CA for work.

I've turned it into a logo of sorts since I have a fondness for the little guys. They are stunted from the beat down they get from the elements.

Here's a link to the pictures I have taken of the landscape out there. It's awesome! I hope the pictures do it justice.






Warm Bloom

Kate took this picture when our Hybiscus bloomed. It was a pleasant reminder of warm days in the middle of the winter.

I've Photoshoped it a little to give it the contrast it deserves: red hot on cold and dark.

Desert Rain

I took this picture in Albuquerque, NM in the fall of 2003 stainding on the porch of my apartment.

While I was there for three months all the locals could talk about was how much rain we were getting. However, the light mist was not something I was accustom to considering a lot of rain being from the East Coast.

To see more pictures from Albuquerque click here. More pictures will be added later as well.





Road to Nowhere

This picture is from a trip to Arizona. The road we were on took a turn and you lost sight of it with the Painted Desert on the horizon.

It kind of makes me think of life... You may know what road you are on, but you don't always know where you will end up.

Sparkler Art

This is a fun picture of everyone playing with sparklers. Time lapse photography and sparks make for the greatest pictures.

The High One

This is a beautiful panaramic of North America's highest peak Mt. McKinley, or as the natives call it, Denali meaning "The High One" and the Alaska Range. We were lucky enough to have a clear day the last time we passed it on our trip. Overall, we traveled about 2600 miles across the Alaska landscape.

We finally have a slideshow posted for viewing. Just follow this link.
