This view used to greet me often. It is shortly outside the front door of the house I grew up in in northern Idaho.

Many things are hidden under this water.

Ready for a fresh morning.
Now Playing: Skrillex & The Doors - Breakn' A Sweat
Enjoyed a beautiful night outside around a fire with family and stopped on the way home out in the middle of nowhere to make this shot. The skies were so clear and perfect.
A wonderful day of hiking and talking where we stumbled on a very large and very rotten log that was just teeming with life, creating it's own well maintained ecosystem.

The look of mushrooms is so exotic and random, like snowflakes or anything else that people normally consider unique and beautiful.
Now Playing: Wilfred - Now
The little tendrils coming out of this flower remind me of the feathers sprouting from Natalie Portman in the movie Black Swan, one of my favorite movies of the last 5 years, if you haven't seen it then go quickly to a Television and experience it.

Is dew the grass' offering of it's purest water? An Aqua Vitae of sorts?

Like a will-o'-the-wisp this flower sits out in nature beckoning you towards it with a few little fingers. What will happen if you go it's way.

If I were a fairy (some may contend that I am) then I would sleep in a spider web and we would be great friends, image the tiny structures they could create with guidance! 
Now Playing: Patrick Watson - Fireweed
My favorite of all the spider web shots I've taken , if I could have a necklace made to look like this I would do it in a heartbeat and it would be an amazing gift.

This plant seems to hold so many analogies that I am endlessly fascinated with photographing it from different angles and depths, it seems each time I see a different story portrayed in the "arms" of the buds or the unnatural color of the plant itself. This one seems to reveal a childhood, an urge to grow and change and the little bud in the middle/bottom/left of the image seems to be using it's arms to crawl up the stalk of the other.
We are pulling at our neighbors legs, straining for the light we see them in only to realize that once we reach it the weather is there too.

So many people are frightened of spiders but I still can't quite figure out why. It's like this built in fear from childhood that we can't quite explain or articulate but we also cannot rationalize it away. Their webs are so beautiful and tactics so effective that they really are amazing to observe, I guess I don't really have a point with all of this, it's more just observations but I'm curious to discuss it as well.

A wonderful day to study the form.

Seems like a place you would walk past on your way home in the 1800's. I'm not sure why, that's just how it hit me.
Now Playing: The Wise Man's Fear - Patrick Rothfuss
This little lady kept wandering closer and closer to me as I was walking towards here until suddenly her instinct took over her interest and she headed off. Her regal posture is quite enjoyable though.
