Our stock library is constantly growing. It’s always fun to come across images and rework them. After processing this one and looking at it more, the sky is amazing. The dock leading out to the huge storm cell can be interpreted in so many ways… This huge storm supercell grew quickly on the horizon of the Laguna Madre when we were fishing for redfish a year or two back on the Texas Gulf Coast. As the storm approached rapidly, James kept telling the guide, “one more, one more shot” and within minutes the storm blanketed the skies and turned day into what felt like night. Our guide, Freddie Lynch (the best guide down there) jetted to the nearest fishing camp and we ran for cover while the storm passed. Not the photos we were thinking we would get, but definitely keepers!

On a recent photo trip to Bodie State Historic Park, James took pictures along Highway 395. Stops included Owens Valley, Virginia Lakes, Mono Lake, the mountains above Bridgeport. Bodie is the largest ghost town in America with over 100 buildings that are in an ‘arrested decay.’ During the gold rush of 1879, it was once the second largest city in California behind San Francisco. James had special access to video and photograph the interior of many buildings as well! Check out the photos…

Storm reveals rainbow over the Grand Canyon.
A recent adventure took us to the mountain streams and lakes of the Eastern Sierras, California. Our timing was right to see the trees exploding with brilliant yellows and oranges. Under the canopy of snow peak mountains and blue skies that city dwellers dream about, we fished for trout and alpers. Bishop Creek Canyon is only 15 minutes above Bishop, but a whole new world and season 8,500+ feet above the adventure town. This time of year the cold nights keep hoards of tourists away, so we had the campground to ourselves. The trip was an ideal get-away and probably would meet most anyone’s desire to escape to nature and to experience its refreshing qualities. Here is a small sample of the photos. Enjoy!
