Snowy Ashland landscape

photomerge snowy I-5 ashland

Ashland, Oregon snowy day

I tried something a little different for today’s photo. I wanted to do a photomerge of I-5 with Ashland in the background with a twist. Normally, I photomerge by taking a series of photos starting with the left and moving right and then stitch them together in Photoshop. However, with most of the traffic coming from the right (heading south) I thought, “what if I find an interesting vehicle and capture it in several of the images?” When I saw the yellow school bus coming I started firing away from right to left. Hence it (and the cars right next to it) show up multiple times in the final photomerged panorama.

I enjoyed another fantastic lunch at Club 66 yesterday.

This weekend’s live acts at Club 66 are on the country side of things. Friday night (January 11, 2013) is The Taylor Rose Band, Darrin Wayne, and Ponderosa Breeze. Saturday night is more country music, but I can’t remember who the bands are.

Ashland from Dead Indian Memorial Road

Ashland, Oregon with a storm brewing

After the snowshoeing adventure mentioned yesterday, I headed down Dead Indian Memorial Road into what looked like a pending storm. The storm fizzled.

The bump in the distant center is the backside of Pompadour Bluff. I’ll have to post a more close up version of Ashland side of Pompadour Bluff soon.

Buck Prairie Nordic Trails

180 degree panorama of Buck Prairie Nordic Trail in the snow

I headed up Dead Indian Memorial Road to Buck Prairie yesterday. The clouds were thick, but for a few minutes on the trail, there was a bit of blue when I took today’s photo. This panorama is actually 9 vertical pictures stitched together into a horizontal landscape. I was trying out my new snowshoes, but most people out yesterday were on cross country skis as you can see from the tracks in the snow.

I didn’t have any photos of a Baby New Year, so this pic of the baby ostrich chicks we saw last month in San Francisco will have to do.

Happy New Year everyone!

Sun and snow can mix well

ashland oregon hiking snow shoes cross country x skiing trail

We drove up to the White Rabbit trailhead parking lot a couple days ago to hike to the end of the Lamb Mine Cave off of Ashland Loop Road. There was lots of snow and I was wishing I had brought along my snow shoes that I received for Christmas. The sun came out at times and, with it, large quantities of snow fell from the trees making a lovely, winter landscape.
