Vote!

The website I sell my photographs on - Fine Art America is holding a photo contest - the prize is a spot in one of their TV ads. The catch? I need 250 votes for my photograph to be a finalist, that then gets sent to a jury vote.

Please please please help me get some votes - as of 4/30 I am at 25. The deadline to reach 250 is May 31st. Please share, stumble, tweet this post or the link on the photo itself: The Mary D. Hume 

The Mary D. Hume - built in 1881 & located in Gold Beach, Oregon

Thanks for any votes you send my way! VOTE HERE

Panic!

I thought I had accidentally ERASED a big chunk of photos from my trip. Photos of a boat I had been wanting to photograph for a long time, and finally got to do it.

I was a bit mad at myself for a while, and sad.

Well stupid me just went rummaging through my unprocessed photos again - low and behold, there they be. Took so many shots they got buried.

I'm a huge fan of old, decaying historic STUFF ... they make for great photos, and usually have a story to tell. Plus being an archaeologist I'm kinda programmed to be into that kind of thing.

This is the Mary D. Hume - you can read about her HERE

LA to Seattle... Go!

Just came back a few days ago from a roadtrip with 2 very good friends. Both from the UK, and one had never been to the states... both blown away by the scenery. I had taken a trip a few years back with the other guy to Alaska and Seattle, and we just had to go back - it was too good!

So, being a photography junkie - the trip in pictures... click to go to the website and see them properly! Totally out of order, and just a handful of favorites:
