Lightning over Rio Rancho, New Mexico
This shot was taken looking out a rain soaked window from the second story of my house. The wet window made for a Monet affect on the lightning.
September Storm
This photo was taken with the Lightning Trigger east of Cimarron, New Mexico, the night before my son was born. I was working with two camera bodies at the time and the lightning strikes were flashing constantly. My poor husband was changing film as fast as he could and he was barely keeping up. This kind of storm would have been perfect for a digital camera.
Lightning Trigger
Lightning Trigger. This little device can leave you speechless. I bought this years ago when I was still capturing scenes like this on film. Anticipation built while I waited for the processed film to return. When you got a shot like this one, you were hooked. This photo was taken during a Northern New Mexico thunderstorm near Cimarron.
I have since laid my film cameras to rest and I'm now shooting digital. Yes, this does work with digital cameras. All you need to do is purchase the right cable from Stepping Stone Products, LLC, 28665 Road P8, Dolores, CO 81323 or call 1-800-452-4167.
I love this little gadget and I hope to get more amazing lightning shots in the future.

Great photos from Yellowstone National Park
I have seen bison in Yellowstone that have looked like this, but I have never seen a griz chasing one down. Truly a once in a life time event.
Grizzly versus Bison: the rest of the story

Alex Wypyszinski had just dropped off his wife at work and had a few hours to kill one morning last April.
Wypyszinski says he likes to spend his free time in the morning snapping photos of wildlife in the park.
Of course, he usually has to search the animals out.
NEW PHOTOS BELOW
It all started when he was driving in the Fountain Flats area, located between the Madison Junction and Old Faithful, when he heard an unusual sound.
But Wypyszinski says any noise is unusual on that particular highway at 7am.
"I thought it was a horse and carriage," said Wypyszinski. "That was the kind of noise that I heard."
By the time he turned around, the two fuzzy brown images were racing quickly toward him.
Wypyszinski pulled out his camera quickly, thinking he was going to catch two moose racing down the highway.
He quickly learned he was mistaken.
"I thought I was having a hallucination or something," said Wypyszinski. "I couldn't believe what that buffalo looked like."
It was a bison, badly burned from an encounter with one of the numerous hot spots in Yellowstone National Park.
The sight of such an injured bison alone is rare, but what Wypyszinski saw next was once in a lifetime.
"Never, ever, ever," said Wypyszinski. "I've seen plenty of bear, and more buffalo. But I've never seen anything like that before."
A grizzly was chasing the buffalo (which was practically cooked already) and gaining quickly.
Wypyszinski stopped his car on the desolate highway and took out his camera.
"I stood along the car as long as I thought it was safe."
The two beasts passed the man by without paying any notice.
The result: these hair-raising pictures.
We pick our tale up where the photos end.
Wypiszinski says once in the safety of the woods the bison out maneuvered the grizzly, escaping to live exactly one more day.
Park rangers had to put the bison down due to the injuries it sustained.
Wypiszinski said the whole event was over just as quickly as it happened.
Just another day in Yellowstone National Park.
Totally Rad Actions
Meet my new best friend, Totally Rad Photoshop Actions!

The use of these actions can take an ordinary photo and turn it into eye popping photograph. I recently took pictures of my friends 9 month old boy. I ran some of the actions in Photoshop and came up with the following photographs.
Check out their website and you will fall in love with them. In case you are wondering, yes, his eyes were that blue.

Winter Bison in Yellowstone
This photograph was taken in West Yellowstone, Montana on a very cold (-40°F) morning back when the bison were hazed back into the park in the winters. My husband was a Park Ranger and he took this photo from his snowmobile.
ZaZa Gallery Canvas Prints
I received my 8x10 canvas print from ZaZa Gallery and I was blown away with the quality of the work. It's perfectly stretched and wraps all around the sides. The colors are vivid and the details are extremely sharp.
