A Year in Photos: A Year in Photos -- Week Thirty-six

A Year in Photos

Photography, fiction, and personal essays form my three primary creative outlets. For this blog's first 18 months, I used it primarily for photography. As I've returned to creative writing, I'll use this blog for fiction, too. Sometimes, when reality needs to be discussed more than truth, I write personal essays.

This blog will continue to showcase as many above-average photos as I can muster. Hopefully my written work will be as good or better than the visual. Whichever drew you here -- photographs or fiction, I hope you enjoy both.

A Year in Photos -- Week Thirty-six

We have lots of great posts this week. In fact, they're so good that if I gave you five this week, your head may explode. Literally, not figuratively. Instead, I'm going to do three this week, you know, as a favor.

Back on July 4th, I took a trip up to Grass Valley, California. So this week will have the star trails image I captured that trip, some photos from the Empire Gold Mine, and some macros I captured later that week. With the star trails image, I'll also explain how I did so that you can try one yourself. So, without further delay, here are some images from this week.
