    Taken on a September night a few years ago, I had been planning to do a star trail for a while. This day suited it, as I had checked it was clear skies throughout the night and the temperature was still warm. In the final image, it is stacked up of 400 images taken over 3 hours. During that time, I had two people walk around the windmill as seen by the torch light but also a few satellites go over. You also see the light pollution caused by Petworth in the bottom right third of the image.

    We have a walnut tree in the garden, however we seldom get to eat any. The reason? The local grey squirrels that manage to nab the lot. Some are very adept at walnut theft, including this individual who manages to grab two in its jaws. After grabbing the nuts they scamper along the boundary fence carrying the booty with them. Managed to catch this one leaping along the fence.

    This shot was taken on my first day into this trip. My wife and I decided to spend Labor Day weekend in the mountains which was wonderful but also very busy which isn't the best for wildlife photography. However, I did come away with some good shots from my outing (mostly landscape) and this is by far one of my favorite. I love how the light is striking the deer's face while he is mostly shrouded in shadow. I took this with a Nikon 200-500mm @ 500, 1/160s, ISO 100 and f6.3. I shot this across th

    Was out looking for anything to photograph on one my few days off from work. So I went to the plot of land where I deer hunt. Any wild flower that may still be in bloom, insects, things like that. Tons of grasshoppers everywhere and I came across this fella. I didn't realize he possibly had a wounded left wing until I processed the photos. No wonder he sat thru many different angles, exposures, and me getting up in his face and didn't offer to fly off.

    I saw the sky start to get some color after looking too overcast. I grabbed my gear and went down to the road behind where I live. I had gotten a few shots of the headlights going the other way and it was too much of a contrast with the sky. I got set up, with the camera low to the ground and got a couple test shots. Then shot this at 5 seconds.
