With some available time before work, went out with my 85mm lens to work on landscape, simply because it is not the normal landscape lens. It’s hard. I expect I will do some more later on.








Where I live, trees are not really tall – the climate is too dry. The Olympic Peninsula is lush and green, with soaring trees and abundant undergrowth. Somehow, all the greenery and water feel rather illegal . . .
