I wanted to get a shot of the Snow Leopards at the Philadelphia Zoo. But they preferred to slumber outside of camera range. The Mountain Lions - they were more active and available.

I was fortunate to be in the right place at the right time to catch this light comming through some grasses. In the winter - these seem to catch my eye while I'm driving and seldom have a chance to capture an image with this level of intensity and color.

A closer shot of back lit grasses. I love the light on these scenes. They have such intensity that is hard to capture in a photo.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! The photo was taken this year of our tree. I used the card for Christmas Greetings at CrossWorld.

Sunday night when I took Sammy out for his evening walk, the moon was full and the scene was dramatic but the moon was obscurred by clouds so it was only a bright disc in the sky. Last night, the sky was clear and the moon showed all its detail. This is a composite of the view from Sunday & Monday.
