Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. CRITCA_020601_06.JPG: Coyote @ Death Valley
2. CRITCA_020601_08.JPG: I was driving along the main drag to reach Scotty's Castle when I passed a coyote standing by the side of the road. I pulled over and stopped. While considering if I should turn around or just back up to get a closer look at it, I looked up in my rear-view mirror and found him trotting down the road to reach me. He walked up to the sand bank next to where I was parked and just sat there. Apparently, tourists had fed him (don't do that! It's illegal and it's ultimately bad for the animals!) and he had decided that this was an easy way to get a meal. (The ranger said their normal diet consists of rabbits and roadkill. He's a scrawny fellow but the ranger said this was all muscle and allowed him to catch him prey.) I took pictures through my car window for awhile and then decided to roll down the window on his side to get better ones. Keep in mind I'm on the driver's side and he's on the passenger side. I had a trace of worry that he would jump in the open window but the need for the photos won out. I took a roll of film of him before moving on. It was very cool!

Bigger photos? To save server space, the full-sized versions of these images have either not been loaded to the server or have been removed from the server. (Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.) I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.

2002 photos: Image quality isn't going to be very good for the first half of this year because these are scans of prints. Equipment this year: I took the plunge and bought my first digital camera. It was August 2002 and I bought an Epson PhotoPC 3100Z. While a nice camera, it had some quirks and bumping it would result in it being totally out of focus until you manually shut it down -- something which blurred almost every picture I took in New York City one day. Trips this year: Two weeks out west, one week in New York, and one week down south. This was the year I started the photo web site. It started to come together in August 2002, mostly as a way of allowing me to keep track of the pictures I was taking. It took awhile to add some basic bells and whistles (logging didn't get added until November) but it's been pretty much like it started out since then. Archaic but working, and free!
