Southern Oregon University Women’s Rugby
I watched rugby for the first time ever yesterday. I believe this was the first match that SOU Women’s Rugby has ever had in Ashland. The weather was great, and the photography was fun. For sports photography, rugby can’t be beat for tackles, hits, and facial expressions.
I have a few dozen more, but for today I’ll just leave you with these.
Ellie was here
Because of a Friday meeting, I arrived in Bandon a day after the rest of my family. The next morning I headed out for a walk at dawn on the beach. One of the first things I discovered a few dozen yards down the beach was this. It brought a big smile to my face as Ellie has been writing this in the sand at every beach she goes to since she was about five years old. It’s good to see that even though she has been a teenager for a while now she is holding true to her core principles. 😉
Sarcalogos
I have yet to attend a show at Johnny B’s that started within an hour of when it was supposed to. I thought Fates Medallion were playing first so when I arrived at just before 10 p.m. I was a bit surprised to see Uzi and the other Fates Medallion guys outside with their gear. I figured they must have went on right at 9 and I missed them. As it turns out, they were playing second even though the flyer appeared to indicate otherwise.
First up was Sarcalogos, a mostly black metal twosome from Portland or Washington or somewhere to the north. Bands usually don’t fit well on Johnny B’s tiny stage, but a band with only two members fit just fine. Spellcaster members couldn’t move with five crammed up there.
Sarcalogos consists of just Dave Phillips (aka Sarcophilus Satanicus) on drums and Skylar Guzman (aka Sarcalogos Occisor) on guitar and vocals.
They seemed like pretty nice dudes. I hope they play in Southern Oregon again.
Spellcaster
Last night Johnny B’s had a few metal acts playing so I headed up to Medford to try out my new Sigma 85mm f/1.4 lens.
Spellcaster was the headliner. I very much enjoyed their performance.
Welcome to Old Town Bandon
We headed over to the Oregon Coast this past weekend for a couple nights. I’ll have some pictures from Bandon over the next little while. I hope you don’t mind the diversion, but the weather was fantastic so I have some pretty decent images.
Eastview Trail – Ashland, Oregon
The guidebooks for hiking or biking Eastview Trail talk about the wonderful views from the trail itself. Actually, there aren’t any views of the east anymore from Eastview Trail as the trees have grown since the trail was created and now the views are all obstructed. It’s still a nice trail though.
Near the trailhead, you do get a bit of a view from the location pictured here. That’s Mount McLoughlin poking up in the distance on the right.
Stormy sunset over Mt. Ashland
When the daytime temperature hits 60 degrees and the forecast is for snow in the evening, you know the sunset is likely to be spectacular. Luckily I was out, waiting for Ellie to finish her flute lesson, when the pre-sunset show began to take place.
The Buddha prepares for a storm
This is the third time I’ve posted a picture of this vineyard Buddha. He is at peace regardless of the weather.
