Beartooth Pass is, unfortunately closed for the winter....but we may go as far as the gate https://www.ktvq.com/news/local-news/man-suffers-serious-burns-after-falling-into-hot-spring-in-yellowstone-national-park?fbclid=IwAR3pIyt2_kjmUwre5rHmEJdOrFl8Jy1JIRWQrpS7Sa9CoGQ012vzsz5Ai5k

Mr.s Smeg and I are headed out at O'dark:30 tomorrow for a week in Yellowstone National Park. Then I'll be home for a couple of days, then I'm back out to Denver for a week. Try to hold back the tears @AyaqGuyaq and @ANGU5

Yosemite National Park "Tunnel View" and a shot of my Canon obsession..... I took the picture of Tunnel View with a Canon 5D Mark IV with Canon EF 16-35 f/2.8L USM III I picked up a new Canon EOS R Mirrorless and RF 24-105 f/4L USM IS kit. It came with the RF to EF lens adapter. Wife and I are headed to Yellowstone National Park next week and I am lugging as much gear with me as I possibly can.

People down there ride this (and worse) out all the time. Not me!

Someone setup a video camera to record the incoming tide surge on the Outer Banks of NC a couple of weeks ago during Hurricane Dorian. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cEFVbvDls4U&feature=youtu.be&fbclid=IwAR3GwBxB3GnEjloIXqEKfDH6ApEonwZkfa70shScjAq7GeHe6vBfB7keAes I have no idea why anyone would want to stay home and ride this out...and it was only a Category 1! I have been there for several Tropical Storms (70mph) and that was no fun at all.....

Who killed it!

@AyaqGuyaq you're used to Moosemeat and Reindeer sausage supreme, right?

Keep the cars, keep the tubes and keep they bunny hoppers (I've been know to do it when desperate).... @Majbasil.... you love when I noob tube you, admit it. ?

Welcome, I'll frag ya later!

@AyaqGuyaq it will be annoying to hear your voice again, but alas, I will enjoy doing nade battles with you! ?

My mother warned me about people like you. Welcome anyway!

Where's the love?

I wouldn't want to be that guy......you're nothing but a target on that contraption.

You were supposed to leave the Peyote back in AK

Welcome to the clan buddy!

Grats! Welcome to the funny farm!

Yes, my particular style is.....dying....a LOT

I think you need to lay off the peyote @AyaqGuyaq, I know a Heron when I see one. ? Direct from your own home states Alaska Department of fish and wildlife, I give you....Blue Heron's http://www.adfg.alaska.gov/index.cfm?adfg=wildlifenews.view_article&articles_id=32

Exactly.....

I actually was totally unprepared for that shot. We were at Potter's Marsh just outside Anchorage. There were your typical waterfowl such as Heron's, gull's and Canadian Geese. I heard this chaotic sound coming through the tree's behind me and I saw this gull dive bombing the eagle. I grabbed my camera and just held the shutter down (I believe that was my 7D Mark II with 100-400 lens). The exposure wasn't really spot on, but I was lucky enough to grab a few in focus shots just at the right time. The Eagle was chasing the Gull's babies. The Gull was not having any of it and chased the Eagle away. It was pretty epic to watch. I also snapped an American Kestral chasing a Bald Eagle there pretty much the same way, although they did not turn out as good. We didn't do a cruise, we flew into Anchorage and planned our two week trip out ourselves. Alaska is an amazing place. Really a trip of a lifetime.

Four years ago today, my bride (of 33 years) and I embarked on an epic journey to Alaska. We have been on many great vacations, yet, they ALL pale in comparison to the magnificent postcard settings of Alaska. We cannot wait to go back and explore more of this beautiful state. And now that @AyaqGuyaq no longer lives there, it's safe to go back! ? Here is a gallery of photos we took on our journey, for those interested in seeing them: https://digitaledgephotography.zenfolio.com/alaska-2015 If you haven't been, GO.....before you cant get out and truly enjoy it.

Things were so quiet while you were away @wildthing ? Glad you're back on your game!

Welcome @caciusclay7, enjoy playing with you! Welcome!

@AyaqGuyaq you should know, you wrote the book on stalking....where have YOU been the past few years. ? Come on into game sometime, I got something fer ya! Oh and welcome Munky!
