What’s the situation in Puerto Rico now?
In June, Puerto Rico gun laws got struck down. What does it mean in practice for the island residents and visitors? (The rifle is Henry octagon pump in 22WMR. The beach is on Vieques Island.)
Squirrel eating a flower
It got close enough for the 55mm lens I had mounted.
Where in the US could I find this kind of forest?
I am looking for coniferous trees, moss, mushrooms, wild berries, something like this photo set.

Having an awesome time in Idaho
Taking hundreds of photos daily, observing much wildlife (deer, turkey, quail, various raptors, ground squirrel), eating well (both home cooked meals and amazing CD’s BBQ) and hanging out with great people. Also sharpening my rifle and shotgun skills….apparently, I can … Continue reading
Various birds
Not sure what species this is. Blue Heron? Seen from afar.
Just got back from Pennsylvania
Spent a week with Crickett Rifle company, have many new photos. They also have a very interesting new product in the works to be announced later this year, a logical extension of their expertise in precision manufacturing.

Snapshots from various years.

New on AllOutdoor: Henry Arms survival kit
Henry Arms survival kit reviewed by my friend Frank and photographed by me.
Little mouse.
Today, while on a photo shoot with me and another friend, the author of Just People found this tiny comatose mouse. The model wanted to warm it up, but its prospects looked poor.

Making the best of a marginal bore.
Eight-point rat on the hoof
Spotted yesterday in Kentucky.
An early morning walk (nsfw)
Woke up before 6am this morning to re-set my waking hours to include more daylight. My friend showed up at six a.m. with some of the clothes she designed. We planned to shoot outdoor fashion, but got rain. I suggested … Continue reading
Where to find a good forest trail in Minnesota?
Does anyone know about any predominantly coniferous forests or parks, with trails suitable for hiking, within 100 miles from Twin Cities, Minnesota? There should be either public access or a possibility to negotiate access with the owner.
