I'm a landscape/wildlife/nature photographer living in the Pacific Northwest. If it's outdoors, in the woods, in the mountains, or on the coast ... I'll probably photograph it!

A group of bird's nest fungi attached to a small twig. The "eggs" inside the nest contain the spores, and rely on raindrops to splash them out of the nest.

Last of the autumn leaves. We're having days of heavy fog here in western Oregon, and the fog creates a special stillness in the forest as we transition from autumn into winter.

I had been looking for a red Amanita mushroom all fall, and finally found a group of three last week.

As fog lifted on a sunny day in the Oregon Coast Range, we were treated to a fogbow, caused by sunlight refracting through droplets of fog. They lack much color, and are somewhat rare, so it was a treat to see.

I was heading home from my photo-walk yesterday when I found these interesting fungi. I believe a type of Helvella. I had to get some closeups of those textures.

Its work finished, its life nearly over ... a yellowjacket clings to a mushroom on a freezing morning. After being chased by them all summer when I passed their ground nest on the trail, I can't really say that I'll miss them when they're gone.
