nature, you've done it again










Scenes from the Monterey Bay Aquarium...
I have a couple hundred amazing images but could not bring myself to share more than what I've got here. Although, I might be tempted to add more later.
Disclaimer: I can not really be held responsible for "creating" these images, these shots were simply presented to me and my eyes, and I am simply passing them on.

Olympic Wonders: via i phone





foot








So I spent a night in the Olympic National Park/rainforest while in Washington State over Labor Day weekend this year and had my mind blown. The thing is, I did not even bring a simple little point-and-shoot camera. So I trusted my phone to bring home some images of some unbelievable organisms that live up there. It was an amazing feeling to be next to some of these dr. suess-like furry giant creatures and I am almost glad I didn't have a real camera--why? well for one: I might have not appreciated it with my naked eyes as much and for two: I mean seriously how can one possibly even dare recreate these greater than lifesize scenes into a tiny 2 dimensional rectangle? There are certain times to be humble and this was one of them. So just an idea of what it might look like if you went to the Olympic Peninsula.
