sliding rock on The Racetrack Playa in Death Valley, California'just ran across this and liked how svelte my shadow looked and after the biggest rainstorm in the history of recordkeeping in these parts, the desert looks inviting.

a few years ago, Bob was mountain biking in the Capital Hills near Olympia and found that he was being followed by an emaciated looking very young and obviously lost husky. The dog couldn't be chased away or dissuaded from following. After about eight miles of trail, Bob decided that he had found a new friend, or rather, vice versa. Luka went home with Bob and they've been together since. Here, we see them on the trail enjoying the snow. Luka is strong and loves to run and run she does and wow is she strong. While I was talking to Bob, she sat patiently waiting but obviously eager to get up the trail. I turned and went up the trail a little way to photograph them coming up the trail toward me and behind me heard Bob yelling for Luka to stop. I turned to see that Bob had fallen and Luka was running full speed, dragging him behind, flailing in the snow...

 ©2007 Ed Book When I was on the Mount Tahoma Trails in January, I photographed quite a few folks and had them sign model releases so I could use the images for stock photo sales in exchange for a photo of them. (payment for signing a model release must be of some value so I give them a photo of themselves, which should have considerable value to the model) On each model release, I tried to describe what the folks were wearing in the images so I could identify them later as well as contact information. On a few of these releases, I asked them to describe what they were wearing. When I was going through the images at home and looking at the model releases, I found that I couldn't read a lot of the handwriting and couldn't match all model releases with images. So, if you're reading this and were one of the folks I photographed, and I haven't contacted you, contact me at ed at edbookphoto dot com to help me match your name to your image. I can't find a model release for these folks so am posting the photo here in hopes they see it and contact me. What do I provide? I send an email-sized image and if requested a large file optimized for printing. Peace Tags: mount tahoma trails, people pics, snow, winter

Cookie, Hoodoo, and I went up to MTTA this weekend and ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) yurtmeister Pat rode with us. Pat worked on pulling the edge of the roof down over the wall---which has been a major challenge because the diameter of the yurt as it exists now is a little greater than the diameter of the new roof... (for a number of reasons that will raise Pat's metabolism rate if you ask him). I acted as "ladder ballast" and did a good job because Pat didn't fall at all... which is good... I didn't aggravate the healing of my shoulder... Cookie did some cleaning and planning work... Hoodoo did Hoodoo things... We got home a little while ago and now I'm about to drive up to Whidbey Island to assist with a photo workshop at Coupeville Arts CenterHere are some photos of the work in progress at last week's work party when we installed the new roof. It started raining about an hour after we got it into place but more time working on it will be needed till it's ready for winter snows... ( Yurt roof workparty (7 photos here) ) Peace Tags: mtta, people pics, yurt
