beauty: There is no place like Alaska - 09/21/18 08:17 PM

There is no place like Alaska ...
My first visit Alaska was in 2001 followed by 2015, 2016, 2017 and now 2018. After my first visit in 2001 I talked about my experience for months, I was taken away by it's beauty.
When I was given another chance to visit in 2015 I couldn't pass up the opportunity.
I try to visit Alaska around 3 time per year because I own property up there and I just can't get enough of Alaska. As a photographer of 40 years Alaska is a photographers dream. As my wife and I drove by Coopers Landing by the … (14 comments)

Several days ago after spending several hours in the lodge at Morgan Hill California working the Internet, I was surprised by such beauty.
As I walked out my head slowly turned to the right and "WOW" ... this bright red and blue colored sunset sky was just staring me in the face.
I quickly grabbed my iPhone and snapped this beautiful photo, and within 10 seconds the bright colors started to fade.

This beautiful sunrise was taken several years ago on a fishing trip with my brother. What a way to start the day with a vision like this.

beauty: Mammoth Lakes California by Robert Vegas Bob Swetz - 01/30/14 11:40 AM

Mammoth Lakes located in central California is one of Vegas Bob's favorite hang outs during the summer months. When the temps in Las Vegas are reaching 110 plus VB likes to jump in the car with the family and take a 6 hour drive north west to Mammoth Lakes.
The elevation is around 7000 feet which helps create much cooler temps along with breath taking views. Take a look at this beautiful photo that took on one of my visits to Mammoth Lakes. And where did this beautiful area get the name "Mammoth Lakes"? Scientists found prehistoric bones of Mammoth many … (7 comments)

Beautiful Flowers are in bloom all around "Eagle Lake" in Northern California so VB decided to snap several photographs and have a little picnic by the lake.
There is a reason VB spends so much time in California, and the northern area is one of my favorites. It seems like every where I go all I see is "Beauty" ...
