RBS I thought all the buildings up there were Fairy buildings. :) And that dock shot of the seals. Those would have been after ski boots back in the late sixties or early seventies. :) Fishing would be way better if they brought back the seal skin after ski boots and lifted the ban on the sea dog harvesting. I know, there really cute.

^ When I saw all them seals, I wished I had one bucket of fish to dump in the water. What a frenzy THAT would have been! :o :lol: That would have made quite an interesting tourist attraction. :D

I posted this a few days ago but didn't have a link to the high res version, so here it is again. I also fixed some problems with the original.

Click on the image to see it in Panoramio, click on it there to see it at high resolution. This is one of my favorite shots from my recent trip doing 'The Grand Circle' tour.

Look who joined me in the studio. I thought he/she was cute until I saw this. That sucker could have gone for my throat.

Before dinner last Monday night at The Slanted Door at the Ferry Building in San Francisco, we came across this view ...

Image

Then woke up the next morning and found the moon over here (towards the bottom) -- view from my room ...

Image

Looking out from my room in the other direction (zoom shot) ...

Image

Walked in this direction one night -- Union Square ...

Nice pics RBS.

Got this one from a friend this morning. He owns and operates a guide service out of Priest Lake in northern Idaho. Just thought some of you may enjoy. Rich gets some great Eagle shots up there along with tons of other wildlife.
