		<description><![CDATA[I got a phone call this morning from a lady down around Olympia who had come across my wildflowers website. She hadn&#8217;t found a plant on the site that she&#8217;d seen on a walk near her home and asked if she could send me a JPEG to identify it for her. I get these requests [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I continue to be drawn to Chuckanut Mountain trails for my winter hikes. Last weekend I headed up the Fragrance Lake Trail from Larrabee State Park. There&#8217;s a lookout over the bay just over a mile from the trailhead and Fragrance Lake itself is only about 2.2 miles with less than 1000 feet of elevation [...]]]></description>

It had only been a month since I&#8217;d been to Lost Lake but I decided to make a return visit. I started hiking from the North Chuckanut trailhead around [...]]]></description>

I took a couple of hikes to keep my blood circulating and to visit a couple of favorite local haunts.

		<description><![CDATA[How can you lose a lake? In the Chuckanut Mountains south of Bellingham you just bury the thing in a deep valley beneath a high sandstone cliff and ring it with lush Douglas-fir, hemlock, and cedar forest with a dense groundcover layer of salal, sword ferns, and low Oregon-grape. Add a muddy trail and you&#8217;ve [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[January 1st, New Year&#8217;s Day, I donned shorts and boots and headed for Oyster Dome. That&#8217;s the prominent rock outcropping rising a couple thousand feet above Chuckanut Drive at the south end of the Chuckanuts or the north end of Blanchard Mountain. It&#8217;s a popular hike, despite being steep and muddy. I went for exercise [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Western Wahoo, otherwise known as Western Burning Bush or Euonymus occidentalis, is an uncommon shrub in the forests of southwest Washington. In fact, it&#8217;s considered a sensitive species and the online herbarium records withhold the exact locations of the specimens. In Oregon, Western Burning Bush is scattered in northwestern counties and occasional elsewhere west of [...]]]></description>

This afternoon, after wrapping up a three-day photography workshop for the Siskiyou Field Institute in Selma, Oregon, I headed south on US 199 toward Gasquet, California. It&#8217;s only [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You know that a wide-angle lens includes a lot more in the picture than a telephoto lens. You also know that the wide-angle expands the sense of space, making objects close to the camera much larger in relation to those farther away. Here&#8217;s a dramatic example of the difference. This photo, shot with a 16mm [...]]]></description>
