Bosque 2009

I started a long blog post about my experience shooting at Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge over the last three years, years, the difference between the conditions this year and last, the reasons why I made various images, etc. Then I realized that the post was ponderous and boring.  Instead, here is a simple gallery of the best images from my trip this winter, plus a so-so quail image that I included for sentimental reasons.  Hopefully the images can speak for themselves.

Bosque Images (Finally) Up

After spending way, way too much time editing and tinkering with my images from Bosque, I have finally posted a collection of my favorite images from the trip.  See the whole collection in the Bosque 2008 Gallery.

First Bosque Images

I apologize for the derth of posts over the last couple of weeks — I was away shooting at Bosque, and then preoccupied with work and holiday shopping.  In any event, I’ve finally had a chance to start seriously editing the 5000+ images that I captured at Bosque Del Apache earlier this month. Based on my initial review, I’m pretty sure that the image above is my favorite from the trip — and I made it about ten minutes after I set up on my very first day.  The rest of the trip was somewhat anticlimactic.
