Near the beginning of every month I post an image or two here, usually recent shots, but sometimes unreleased photos from my archive as well. Feel free to bookmark and check back each month for new shots, and to leave comments or ask questions!

Photo Challenge Entry #6 Coyote and Snail

A lesson in shot composition:  Sometimes you just get lucky, and everything is already set up and just waiting for you when you get there.  And sometimes you get even luckier when it is waiting for you only three steps out your door.  Little things can be easy to overlook, to miss entirely.  But it is the little things that are often the most important in life, as well as in photography.  Take the time to pay attention to them.  Don't be in such a hurry.  Don't focus so intently on the future that you miss the present.  You will live a happier life, and you will make much better photographs.
