While visiting my parents today my dad showed me what he had been up to. Talk about a lot of work chopping all of this wood, but it will be nice when the cold of Winter hits. This photo tells a story with the fact that a lot of work was performed and it was performed by hand.
I hope that when I am my dad’s age that I am able to work as hard as he does.

Today we were treated to a viewing of the mega yacht “Kaori” as it left port in Port Townsend, Washington. This evening I did a little research on the yacht and discovered the following specifications:
Length: 125 feet
Beam: 28 feet
Weight: 380,000 pounds
This yacht is wider than our boat is long. It was an absolutely beautiful site as it maneuvered to leave port.

This photo was taken at Lucky Peak Reservoir during the 2008 running of the YMCA Spudman Triathlon. I had on the 70-200mm lens and set it at 200mm to get in close.
I like to take a series of images when I shoot swimmers. The water in each frame will be quite different from each other and usually one stands out as the best one.
The wave the swimmer was creating with his head was what intrigued me about this image.
Here is Alle’s calendar shot for August 2008. What a spoiled dog.
