Shuttering Yukon's favorite photos

NTSC: stones Detail of a fiber sculpture at the Museum of Art and Design.

10-week project - textures - week three: smooth A pair of smoothly-polished stone cabochons (obsidian and Crazy Lace agate), perched on a pile of rough-cut stone slabs and tumbled-smooth beach pebbles.

TSC: chairs Apparently, people jump out of these chairs and fling themselves down the mountain at high speeds, in the cold snow, on purpose. For fun . Top of the ski area at Sandia Peak in Albuquerque, New Mexico. ETA: Just to be clear, I did *not* ride on one of those death-traps; I took the aerial tramway up the other side of the mountain (see note). :)

TSC: in the garden I don't have a garden, but I did spend the day in a park... Ripe purple prickly pears. If I *did* have a garden (and lived in a desert) I'd totally grow these... [ETA: six years later, I *do* live in the desert and have a garden, and some of the first things I planted in my garden were various prickly pears... :D no fruit yet (or, not big enough to eat, anyway), but someday when they grow up.... :) ]

TSC: vanishing point

TSC: perspective Staring down the tracks.

Messing around with multiple exposures on the Sardina. (ghost image is of a bent spike coming up out of the ground)
