A new species of tree uploaded on 30 January 2008

This is a tree chock full of shoes located along Highway 20 in Oregon near Juntura. I saw it while I headed East back to my family in Northwest Indiana from my current home in Bend, Oregon. I will be on look out for more of these trees in case they become an invasive species.

Na Pali Cliffs at sunset uploaded on 30 January 2008

The cliffs of the Na Pali coast warmed in color in the fading sunset as seen from Polihale State Park in Kauai. The beach was completely empty and only a few campers lingered along the bluffs above the beach.

Night at Polihale uploaded on 30 January 2008

A closed down park with access only coming via a severely neglected dirt road? Sign us up. Thirty minutes after a wonderful sunset over Polihale State Park on the southwest shore of Kauai, the full moon began to peek over the cliffs of the Na Pali coast to dramatic effect. The closed campground was almost completely empty except for a few lucky souls that night, but all were well rewarded with this full moon.

Parliament Hill uploaded on 29 January 2008

Located in Hampstead Heath just to the North of London, Parliament Hill lends a great view of the city of London. The heath itself is a wonderful retreat away from the city life into nature.

Walking to St. Paul's uploaded on 29 January 2008

My friends and I were headed to Tate Modern from St. Paul's Cathedral one night. I was really excited to get some night pictures taken of London and this is one of my favorites. Viewing back at St. Paul's from the view of a shoe on Millennium Bridge is quite nice.

The Location of Arthur's Seat uploaded on 29 January 2008

I paid a visit to Arthur's Seat in Edinburgh Scotland and knew exactly where I was standing in the world. It was a windy day, but picture perfect skies for everyone to enjoy.

London Eye uploaded on 29 January 2008

My friends and I went to London for new years. We ended up getting stuck in a massive crowd just North of the Waterloo bridge unable to see the fireworks. After two hours of waiting the crowds cleared enough for us to continue our journey south for more debauchery. I took this right when we got to the south side of the bridge, still able to enjoy and appreciate the night despite the overwhelming mass of humanity.

Hitchin' a ride uploaded on 29 January 2008

After trying to hitch unsuccessfully out of Lihue for a bit of time there was some dissent to our plans. None of us had hitched before and didn't know how long it would take. Luckily, while we discussed our options, one of us still had a thumb out and we caught a ride. Once in the back of the truck, we were all smiles and having a great time. It was like getting a tour of Kauai for free. It was easy from then on and we were constantly humbled by the generosity of strangers.
