Incredible Hulk

Incredible Hulk 06
Post-thunderstorm cloud shadows on the Incredible Hulk in Little Slide Canyon, Hoover Wilderness.

Incredible Hulk 04
Here are some climbers descending the face of the Hulk (which I guess technically makes them descenders rather than climbers). Note the orange-stained rock at lower left.

Incredible Hulk 05
That rock is visible in this shot as an orange rectangle next to the long vertical shadows. A little to the right you can see a speck that is the three climbers.

Shadow Shot Sunday: is it any wonder everybody's doing it?

The Queen of the Roller Derby Has Abdicated

The Queen of the Roller Derby Has Abdicated

I'm about to head out of the neighborhood, going north on the I-5 to Vancouver, with stops in Yreka, Medford, Portland and Seattle, then taking the coast back down. Mrs. G and I are celebrating our 25th anniversary with a two-week road trip, so I'll catch all you hepcats when I swing back into town at the end of the month. Ciao!

Vertical and Horizontal

We Control the Vertical. We Control the Horizontal.

A pigeon checks out a couple of abandoned couches with different slants on life. This Shadow Shot Sunday image may be somewhat suggestive to those with a wicked imagination; check with some of these people.

At Upper Chain Lake, near the southern end of Yosemite National Park. Heading up to the Sierra in a couple days to do a trip into the park from the opposite end--out of Twin Lakes, familiar to our loyal readers as Generik's favorite vacation spot.
