Before the dawn
Ashland has had a change in weather over the past few days. This is not so good for those of us who like the warmer temperatures, but it is great for photography with the crazy clouds, different lighting, and unpredictable colors that come with. I took today’s photo before the sunrise when the sky was going bonkers for a few minutes.
Celebrating the kill
My little girl is in a volleyball tournament on the Oregon Coast this weekend. Today’s photo is from this past Thursday night in the Ashland High School Gym.
SOU autumn
Near the end of the last school year, construction began on a new “gateway” sign for Southern Oregon University on the corner of Siskiyou Boulevard and Mountain Avenue. It took months before the project was complete, but the new sign was ready before courses began again at SOU in September. Now that the landscaping doesn’t look so brand new and artificially placed, I decided to take a photo of it on a glorious fall afternoon earlier this week. The Plunkett Center can be seen a bit through the leaves in today’s pic.
Ashland’s Blue Hour
Took a little trip to Jacksonville this past Sunday and forgot my camera. The skies were amazing and downtown Jacksonville was deserted so it would have been fantastic for photography. Alas, by the time we returned home to Ashland the sun had set and the only hope of capturing the glory of the skies on that day was to leave the shutter open for longer than I can hold a camera still. So I headed up onto the roof and set my camera on the top of my chimney for four seconds to achieve this result.
Grizzly Peak is a bit obscured by the tree just to the left of center. I have another photo from a different vantage point on this evening of Grizzly Peak that I’ll post at a later date.
Halloween House revisited
I have shown photos of this house, all decorated up with jack-o-lanterns for Halloween, several times before. Today’s photo is the 2012 version, before the number of pumpkins have become as large as it will as October progresses.
Ashland High School Football
I went to my first high school football game in 27 years this past Friday night. The lighting was horrific–not just for photography, but it was not easy to see the field, period.
The game between Ashland High School and Marshfield High School was a blowout with Ashland winning 61-14. Pictured above is one of the many touchdowns on the night for the Grizzlies.
Mud Bay Jugglers
The temperature in Ashland has dropped over the past week or two. It no longer feels like summer, and that means no more Green Show before the OSF plays at night. This past weekend featured the last Green Show acts of the 2012 season. Saturday night’s performers were a touring troupe known as the Mud Bay Jugglers. These three pictured here were backed by a four-piece band, and they put on a great show.

Some more photos today from Saturday’s match against Grants Pass…
A few more inches of height and he could have headed this one into the goal.

AHS Boys JV Soccer
After yesterday’s parade, I headed over to Ashland Middle School to watch some Ashland High School Soccer.
