Just going through some photos and thought I'd post some random stuff. Some of it recent, some of it not. Some of it climbing related, some of it not...

The photo threads are one of the best things about this forum, IMO... So, post up!

My climbing partner in Bishop - he was recently stolen by a pink-haired girl.

Another view of a small section of the valley...

Ira Latour - One of the Grand Masters of photography and my photo mentor

Those are some fine photos and I agree, the pics are some of the best threads.
Unfortunately most of my climbing ones are not with me. However here are a few random ones that have absolutely nothing to do with climbing


Gulmarg, Kashmir



Jama Masji, Old Delhi India


Smoke Break


From above Nanital, India


One of those are mine...

I thought I'd give you-all the bird.






I was mowing the lawn last summer when I found this black capped chickadee that was in some long wet grass and not looking so good. So picked him up and carried him towards the house. It seemed to warm up and dry off enough and ended up flying off.

actually eKat, it is an interesting demonstration of the inverse color of the purple (or what ever that color is) dots in you persistent vision. The green non-dot is the color complement. It is why your picture is so wonderfully pleasing to look at, the kayak color is probably nearly inverse of the background colors, giving a very strong color-contrast. The way we process visual information likes high contrast with wide tonal ranges...

...so you can barf, but it is strangely compelling to watch the dots go around... just look that wonderful kayak scene instead.

Nice. I had never heard of the place, but I was in the area on my way home from Panama and stopped in for a visit. Have you run a lot of whitewater down there? I've been tossing around the idea of running the Usumacinta river down on the mexico guatemala river in my 16' oar rig.

I didn't ride buses down there, but I found more than a few ways to get lost driving around that area between Papantla and Poza Rica. Not many road signs, so its a lot of dead reckoning navigation.

Next time you walk out to swinging bridge from the SDA camp, keep your eye on the right side of the dome, the arrow will come into view.

I remember this canyon to the left of the arrow that had some steep splitter cracks in it. I just never got around to checking it out.

Hey, thanks, kubok!3! That is my then girlfriend, Marisa. I rather like that image too. I'd just gotten myself out of waist/chest-high quicksand and was cleaning myself and gear off. She had walked out on the flats and was sitting out there, doing her thing, and I thought it was a magical moment.

You're right of course. I passed through Pinnacles recently for just a few hours, for the

Coyote Ugly was the funnest-sounding route I saw on a quick scan of Mountainproject
from our motel the night before.

In fact it was plenty fun, though I've no idea how it compares with whatever else we might
have chosen. For those not so Pinnacles-savvy, here is Matthew Fienup's beta photo

I went out looking for a cardio work out and some blue plastic ice for my climbing partner and came up with these last night. One of the best evenings out this year. The ice I found, possibly FA material.


And lunchtime view, oops later than it should be.



But the sunset made the whole 6 hour approach worth every step.


And I cannot figure out how to get good color out of the point and shoot, this was the alpinglow that was very purple, but after shooting about 10 frames only came up with this, which is not what the eye saw. Anyone know what I can do different?



Enjoy,

I'm thinking it was perhaps a mating ritual, I dunno. I was out hiking at lunch and happened to have the p&s w/ me so took some snapshots. I've come across a variety of prints in the snow, but that was the first time to come across such a display.

I did get some pics of a grizzly bear's prints this fall, but haven't uploaded them yet. Somewhat un-nerving to go on a solo day hike and to come across the fresh tracks of at least 1/2 doz different bears, though mostly black bears.

Random photos you say...

This orchid was a gift from a friend last year. It was in bloom then, but withered soon after. I was away most of the summer and when I got home I thought the plant was gone. I trimmed it back to the base, we re-potted it and watered it with little bits of warm water every few days in the morning sun.

Here it is yesterday morning.

Mungeclimber we went out on the day with the idea we would climb it really fast and sunny but it had snowed recently on the Eiger or it hadn't all melted from that section. The fog rolled in while we were on the peak and made it like pretty eerie. We never got that scared feeling though as it was just fog and would roll in and out. Above that was a beautiful layer of blue.

It was a pretty easy Ferrata.

Ha MIke ,

I ran across this pic....


This from a time when the game and fish bought thousands of pounds of Alabama farm raised catfish in the 3-5 ponud range and stocked a local lake.......only they for got to put a limit on them. Some of the more 'savy' locals walked with over a hundred of them some nights. We ate some good catfish that year. We never abused that limit, but ate well. Next year the limit was four.

Converting a camera to infrared (IR)

All digital cameras can sense IR but they have a little filter in front of the lens that blocks the IR so your photos look natural. All you have to do is take the filter out (it's called a hot mirror) and replace it with either a clear glass or something that blocks all or most visible light.

There are services that will do this for $200 and up but if you aren't too picky about results and are handy with little parts, it isn't too hard to do for free. The hardest part is getting the camera apart and back together again. Luckily, there are lots of geeks on the internet who like to take cameras apart and post step by step instructions. Sometimes you can find service manuals, parts lists or exploded parts diagrams that help.

STEP 1
Find, borrow, steal or buy on ebay the cheapest digital point and shoot you can find for your first project. I had a Canon A550.

STEP 2
Take it apart until you can get at the sensor. Sometimes you get at this from the back and sometimes from the lens side.

STEP 3
Find and remove the hot mirror. It's a little piece of glass that looks almost clear. Mine was about a centimeter across.

STEP 4
Find something to replace the hot mirror with. I used a piece of very over exposed and developed color negative film. When you get a roll of film processed, the tail that hangs out in the light when you load the camera. It will look pretty much black after developing. I've seen people cut a piece of the magnetic disc from inside an old floppy. A piece of black garbage bag might work. Hopefully it is about the same thickness as the old hot mirror (mine was 0.009 inches thick).

STEP 5
Put the camera back together. Usually harder than getting it apart. Like down climbing. I hate that term down climbing, I prefer to call it unclimbing. "I climbed the pitch and then I unclimbed the pitch."

STEP 6
Go take pictures. They will look pretty weird right out of the camera. If your filter is good at blocking all visible light, it will probably be red and black. My filter seems to let some visible spectrum through so of RGB I get some red and green but not much blue.

The leaves and clouds reflect the IR but the sky is cool and dark. Seems to work best in full sunlight. Best cloud pictures ever. It seems to see more clouds than the eye.

this is neat Banquo,

an interesting little aside, the detectors in most digital cameras are CCDs and they lose sensitivity by around 8000A=800nm. This is considered the red end of the optical part of the spectrum, not the true infrared that is usually defined to start at around 1micron=1000nm. For sure the light in these "infrared" images is reflected red light not emitted infrared from the objects in the scene.

Mike, very true.

I think this is more correctly called near infrared photography and shouldn't be called thermal imaging. I've shamelessly snatched some plots off the net, one for CCD's and one for visible. A bit confusing because the scales are reversed.

When I hold my filter up to sunlight, I can't see through it so I think the camera is capturing something outside the visible range. Pretty crude filter and camera so it's hard to say what the image spectral range is. I suspect it is partly in and partly out of at least my visible range. The lens glass also filters and may have coatings.

I suppose visible range varies from person to person.

The images remind me of moonlight. I'm too lazy to research this but it may be that moonshine is in the near infrared.

The two images posted here were taken at f2.6 1/640 and ISO 200 in full sunlight. This is maybe 3 stops down from a "normal" camera so there is a fair amount of light getting through my black filter.

Edit:
Chlorophyll has absorption peaks in the blue range and in the orange-red range. The bright white of the leaves in my pictures is light beyond 750 nm. The green we see is the light between 450 and 650 nm which is reflected.

Yes it's a Pontiac Indian 1951.

The girl was identified as Sharbat Gula many years after in a village inside Afghanistan nearly without communication with the outer world. They were allowed to interview her once after accepting to never contact her again. She didn't want any recognition.

It's one of the strongest most fascinating faces ever put on paper.

more on the nat geo afghan girl:

She remembers the moment. The photographer took her picture. She remembers her anger. The man was a stranger. She had never been photographed before. Until they met again 17 years later, she had not been photographed since.

The photographer remembers the moment too. The light was soft. The refugee camp in Pakistan was a sea of tents. Inside the school tent he noticed her first. Sensing her shyness, he approached her last. She told him he could take her picture. "I didn't think the photograph of the girl would be different from anything else I shot that day," he recalls of that morning in 1984 spent documenting the ordeal of Afghanistan's refugees.

The portrait by Steve McCurry turned out to be one of those images that sears the heart, and in June 1985 it ran on the cover of this magazine. Her eyes are sea green. They are haunted and haunting, and in them you can read the tragedy of a land drained by war. She became known around National Geographic as the "Afghan girl," and for 17 years no one knew her name.

In January a team from National Geographic Television & Film's EXPLORER brought McCurry to Pakistan to search for the girl with green eyes. They showed her picture around Nasir Bagh, the still standing refugee camp near Peshawar where the photograph had been made. A teacher from the school claimed to know her name. A young woman named Alam Bibi was located in a village nearby, but McCurry decided it wasn't her.

No, said a man who got wind of the search. He knew the girl in the picture. They had lived at the camp together as children. She had returned to Afghanistan years ago, he said, and now lived in the mountains near Tora Bora. He would go get her.

It took three days for her to arrive. Her village is a six-hour drive and three-hour hike across a border that swallows lives. When McCurry saw her walk into the room, he thought to himself: This is her.

Names have power, so let us speak of hers. Her name is Sharbat Gula, and she is Pashtun, that most warlike of Afghan tribes. It is said of the Pashtun that they are only at peace when they are at war, and her eyes—then and now—burn with ferocity. She is 28, perhaps 29, or even 30. No one, not even she, knows for sure. Stories shift like sand in a place where no records exist.

Time and hardship have erased her youth. Her skin looks like leather. The geometry of her jaw has softened. The eyes still glare; that has not softened. "She's had a hard life," said McCurry. "So many here share her story." Consider the numbers. Twenty-three years of war, 1.5 million killed, 3.5 million refugees: This is the story of Afghanistan in the past quarter century.

Now, consider this photograph of a young girl with sea green eyes. Her eyes challenge ours. Most of all, they disturb. We cannot turn away.

"There is not one family that has not eaten the bitterness of war," a young Afghan merchant said in the 1985 National Geographic story that appeared with Sharbat's photograph on the cover. She was a child when her country was caught in the jaws of the Soviet invasion. A carpet of destruction smothered countless villages like hers. She was perhaps six when Soviet bombing killed her parents. By day the sky bled terror. At night the dead were buried. And always, the sound of planes, stabbing her with dread.

"We left Afghanistan because of the fighting," said her brother, Kashar Khan, filling in the narrative of her life. He is a straight line of a man with a raptor face and piercing eyes. "The Russians were everywhere. They were killing people. We had no choice."

Shepherded by their grandmother, he and his four sisters walked to Pakistan. For a week they moved through mountains covered in snow, begging for blankets to keep warm.

"You never knew when the planes would come," he recalled. "We hid in caves."

The journey that began with the loss of their parents and a trek across mountains by foot ended in a refugee camp tent living with strangers.

"Rural people like Sharbat find it difficult to live in the cramped surroundings of a refugee camp," explained Rahimullah Yusufzai, a respected Pakistani journalist who acted as interpreter for McCurry and the television crew. "There is no privacy. You live at the mercy of other people." More than that, you live at the mercy of the politics of other countries. "The Russian invasion destroyed our lives," her brother said.

It is the ongoing tragedy of Afghanistan. Invasion. Resistance. Invasion. Will it ever end? "Each change of government brings hope," said Yusufzai. "Each time, the Afghan people have found themselves betrayed by their leaders and by outsiders professing to be their friends and saviors."

In the mid-1990s, during a lull in the fighting, Sharbat Gula went home to her village in the foothills of mountains veiled by snow. To live in this earthen-colored village at the end of a thread of path means to scratch out an existence, nothing more. There are terraces planted with corn, wheat, and rice, some walnut trees, a stream that spills down the mountain (except in times of drought), but no school, clinic, roads, or running water.

Here is the bare outline of her day. She rises before sunrise and prays. She fetches water from the stream. She cooks, cleans, does laundry. She cares for her children; they are the center of her life. Robina is 13. Zahida is three. Alia, the baby, is one. A fourth daughter died in infancy. Sharbat has never known a happy day, her brother says, except perhaps the day of her marriage.

Her husband, Rahmat Gul, is slight in build, with a smile like the gleam of a lantern at dusk. She remembers being married at 13. No, he says, she was 16. The match was arranged.

He lives in Peshawar (there are few jobs in Afghanistan) and works in a bakery. He bears the burden of medical bills; the dollar a day he earns vanishes like smoke. Her asthma, which cannot tolerate the heat and pollution of Peshawar in summer, limits her time in the city and with her husband to the winter. The rest of the year she lives in the mountains.

At the age of 13, Yusufzai, the journalist, explained, she would have gone into purdah, the secluded existence followed by many Islamic women once they reach puberty.

"Women vanish from the public eye," he said. In the street she wears a plum-colored burka, which walls her off from the world and from the eyes of any man other than her husband. "It is a beautiful thing to wear, not a curse," she says.

Faced by questions, she retreats into the black shawl wrapped around her face, as if by doing so she might will herself to evaporate. The eyes flash anger. It is not her custom to subject herself to the questions of strangers.

Had she ever felt safe?

"No. But life under the Taliban was better. At least there was peace and order."

Had she ever seen the photograph of herself as a girl?

"No."

She can write her name, but cannot read. She harbors the hope of education for her children. "I want my daughters to have skills," she said. "I wanted to finish school but could not. I was sorry when I had to leave."

Education, it is said, is the light in the eye. There is no such light for her. It is possibly too late for her 13-year-old daughter as well, Sharbat Gula said. The two younger daughters still have a chance.

The reunion between the woman with green eyes and the photographer was quiet. On the subject of married women, cultural tradition is strict. She must not look—and certainly must not smile—at a man who is not her husband. She did not smile at McCurry. Her expression, he said, was flat. She cannot understand how her picture has touched so many. She does not know the power of those eyes.

Such knife-thin odds. That she would be alive. That she could be found. That she could endure such loss. Surely, in the face of such bitterness the spirit could atrophy. How, she was asked, had she survived?

The answer came wrapped in unshakable certitude.

"It was," said Sharbat Gula, "the will of God."

I imagined I saw sorrow in your photos. If so: Your face added a lot of meaning.

Indeed, you did. Those photos were taken while caring for my Aunt (Ruth C. Martinez) from Dec. 19th to Dec. 23rd. I'd gone for a walk just around the corner from her home in Redlands, CA.

She passed away this morning, a moment I knew was coming when I walked on this particular day...

Here are more from that walk:

Clint Eastwood was my favorite Western star until I saw the movie and read the book.
Abbey was brave. Lonely sometimes, sure. Kirk Douglas' own personal favorite role. That's going some for a dirtbag actor like him.
I just want to have you know E.Abbey is a bhodisattva of the earth, he is a God-inflicted curse on those who would see the USA from their Chevrolet and he is a vulture now, likely looking for anyone not brave enough to anarchize.

Goat Man Frolicking Through the Utah Wilderness

http://newsfeed.time.com/2012/07/23/goat-man-frolicks-through-the-utah-wilderness/

Wild & Weird: Holy Hill Climber! Goatman Spotted in Utah

A new masked crusader has been spotted in the high peaks of Northern Utah. Known as Goatman to some, a guy in a homemade goat suit has been spotted -- and photographed -- awkwardly cavorting on all fours with a herd of mountain goats.

The Utah Division of Wildlife Resources investigated and found that, though odd, there's nothing illegal about the man's interspecies cross-dressing. The agency is concerned, however, that Goatman is endangering his own life -- wild goats have hurt people in the past and, if his costume is really good, he could be targeted in the coming hunting season.

So who was this masked man? After the story made national news, a 57-year-old California man called the Utah wildlife agency claiming he was merely trying out his goat suit in preparation for a goat hunt in Canada next year.

These are not really random, "having no specific pattern or objective."

I drove to Cascades and then up to Crane Flat and then over to Greeley and over the hill from there to Hwy 49 north of Bagby last week, running out of battery juice in the Canon. I repeated the drive the day before yesterday, it was so remarkable the first time.


From a trip in mid-October.
