So I've been trying to get into my old hobbies again - the ones I gave up before I came out.  One of my favorites was milling around, hiking and photography.  I used to have fantasies of putting a mini darkroom in my bedroom closet, but I would've had to give up space for secret clothes and herbal supplements, so that got nixed.

Anyway, my wife and I have been trying to go out hiking.  I'll be posting these as Google+ albums as I edit through the photos from each, but here's a taste of what I got from the first outing:





... I really wish I had a better camera to do this with, but this works.

EDIT:

This is from the second trip that I'm just uploading tonight... haven't had a chance to go through them at all, but I am particularly proud of this one and I just had to share it.  Who needs a telephoto lens?!  Just hold REALLY FREAKING STILL.  Bwahahaha!

Great photos.!

I know all about the "holding still" part.!

Keep clicking.. 

I LIKE LIKE LIKE!  Love these, and the water picture... well done, I was mesmerized.  If you dont mind I would like to use it for my desktop.  Thanks for sharing.  Dani

Thanks!    Please feel free, I'd be honored for you to use it on your desktop.  I'm glad you enjoyed them.

I STILL haven't got around to finishing all the photos from my last three trips, but I wanted to show a couple more here.
