A cool shot of a bunch of different lichens on a low hanging tree branch. Taken in the White Mountains of Arizona.

I’m in white with the ear muffs on. Those chainsaws aren’t particularly loud, but after hours of use, they get to be. You can see my favorite dog in the background, Zoe. We logged firewood in the White Mountains near Clay Springs, AZ to heat our house in Snowflake, AZ during the winter and colder months. I miss doing these logging trips. Lots of camping and work.

When firewood logging we came across a lot of this hardwood juniper tree. They don’t grow anywhere except in Arizona and parts of New Mexico. A really neat tight grained colorful wood. I really want to make furniture out of it.

This juniper species was named Alligator due to the look of the scales on the bark. The smell when this is burnt is heavenly.

This was taken with the range finding Olympus 35 RD, but my friend didn’t know you had to focus it. This blurry portrait of me really emphasizes the state of mind I was in when it was taken. Beer, good friends, fire, and photography while camping is great.

Cloud was having a great time resting under an Alligator Juniper Tree while out camping in the White Mountains of Arizona near Clay Springs. Shot on the Rolleiflex T. Damn the glass is great on this TLR camera.

While out roaming around the White Mountains, I tried to take some photographically interesting shots. This one is a bit muddled, but I think it looks cool.

I really took a lot of picture while I was out camping in the White Mountains of Arizona. Here is one of the campsites we made in the Apache Sitgreaves National Forest. Fire plus tent equals happy camping.

Here’s a camping portrait of my buddy Steve. Spent a lot of time camping with this guy. Best friends forever.

Here’s a shot of a two track logging road through the White Mountains. Taken just outside the area we used as a camping spot. Got the sun coming through the trees just perfectly.
