“Forever In Our Hearts — James M. “Jimi” Hendrix — 1942-1970”
This Hendrix family memorial gravesite is located at Greenwood Memorial Park in Renton, Washington. Although it’s only 10 miles from where I live, today is the first time I’ve ever visited it.
There were several people visiting, but there was a ten minute lull and I was able to grab several photos. Folks had left several ‘gifts’, ranging from flowers to Zig Zag rolling papers to chalk for leaving a message.
I did this in HDR and some fairly heavy tone mapping. It gave me the look I was after… almost postcardish. Today was a pretty drab day and the original looked pretty much like… well… a drab snapshot.

Another try at multiplicity… how fun!
My granddaughter, Maddie, advanced the runners with this line drive down the first base line…
I shot this series from the outfield at 250mm.

So I was walking along the Soos Creek Trail and ran into this motley looking bunch. They wanted a photo, so what could I do… I obliged!
I’ve been wanting to try this for some time now. Several photogs at DPS have done it and it always intrigued me. So here’s my entry.
I do need to give kudos to Indigo – www.flickr.com/photos/artofindigo/ – for her recent multiplicity photos… and the inspiration!

I got out of the truck at the Safeway store, looked West and saw this awesome sky.

Lincoln Park is a huge park bordering the Puget Sound in West Seattle. With miles of trails and gorgeous views, it’s a great place to get away…

It was cloudy and grey all day until the sun was just setting…
Bright sunlit trees against dark clouds are one of my very favorite things in this world.

Shot at sunset in the backyard… no flash. Pretty little things. The blossoms are about 1.75cm., approximately the size of a dime.
