Some Favorite Photos

Taken with Olympus c-250 March 2008

An angler at Fiorito Pond In the distance you can see the freeway going up the hillside.

A feather just laying there, love the tiny seedlings just starting there new life.

Rural Ellensburg, located in a valley with mountains and hills all around.

Bugs at dusk I just love the way this photo turned out. Fiorito Pond 3/5/08

A ball of goose feathers that drifted close to shore. Lots of fighting amoung the geese this time of year.

Makes one want to get a boat.

Fiorito Pond, freeway, plus cabin makes a pretty evening photo.

I know I have already posted this photo in another article but , his face says it all. I would rather someone use my garbage can than throw their crap in the wetlands where wild creatures live.

Those are wonderful photos, Vivian. Because I'm not getting email notifications of articles, I found this while perusing the newly published articles on the Gather site.

Thanks Vivian - I live in a suburb outside of Cleveland but right on top of a beautiful park. I hate when people throw their garbage around. How lazy can someone be.

These are all really great shots Vivian. The one with the boat on the water makes me so anxious for camping season.

The country around Ellensburg looks a lot like here except for the plowed fields, ours are feeding cattle or growing hay. Love mountains 360 degrees around. Great pictures.

Vivian, your photos are beautiful.
What a lovely area you have there. I also wonder how people can be so thoughtless. Don't they enjoy the beauty of nature and see how distracting and disgusting their garbage makes the area look? So sad.
I look forward to seeing more articles about this lovely area.

It is sad that people can be so careless to trash up the water and wild life. Do they not know what they are doing to the other animals and our selfs.
