View from prison.

Deputy Scatman, here's some scutlebutt for you on what that fellow who's calling you a ranger and pretty much taunting you to come find him looks like (will this help with my parole?):

WARNING: @Perry AVERT YOUR EYES:

Well, it's a good thing Dooley is already dead. A big maybe on the parole. If you are paroled, would you be interested in tracking down the fellow calling me a Ranger?

 

[Rockskipper]

Sure, he'll be a sitting duck out of the water.

 

[Wyatt Carson]

Now that is just mean...pure meaness

I do apologize to poor Dooley though, I had no call for that reproach, making fun of a draft animal.

 

[Rockskipper]

OK, this was a great thread until it got seriously derailed by some BCP ne'er do wells. So, to get it back on track, here's a view I would never get tired of, Rifle Falls near RIfle, Colorado:

 

[MikeM]

I could look at the Sperry Glacier basin all day





But, have you guys considered that staring at these views would just be torturing yourself even more? Maybe not having a view at all would at least make us think we weren't missing anything by being locked up all day...

Wait, what? "Ne'er do wells"?

 

[Rockskipper]

Well, OK, "seldom do wells" and one who was maybe a bit off-kilter.

Beautifiul! Early parole for you.

This is a beautiful scene too. I think I'd go stir crazy if I didn't have a view.

Narrowed it down to one yet?

Well, OK, "seldom do wells" and one who was maybe a bit off-kilter.

That would be Way off-kilter.

i’ll cop to the off kilter thing, sometimes a lot and sometimes , after a nice wilderness bathing, perhaps more centered for just a bit, Got a good one in today.

Now I’ve seen so much beauty in the views out here that I can die right here and now and the efforts I’d take to stay one step ahead of the sheriff here and his rather exuberant deputy, well I’ll just let this self portrait from a couple years ago do the talking..

 

[Rockskipper]

Well done, but I'm just wondering - were you planning to dig for water with that knife?

In spirit I’m in the f/64 club, one of those who take ordinary objects and try to do something unique with them. The knife isn’t going to do anything but draw your attention and tell some kind of strange tale to your imagination. It is just one part of the composition. Let me tell you how hard it was to get the perfect lighting on the blade without being able to actually look through the viewfinder before the ultimate sunset light disappeared on that vast dry lake. I like ideas over the iconic and well known locations.

Off-trail. As I suspected.

 

[Rockskipper]

Arrest him, Deputy - or is it too late? He looks like a goner.

And here I thought your moniker/screen name was with respect to wandering outdoors.

 

[Artemus]

OK, OK, will this get me parole?

Skipper.... sometimes I really wonder where and in what circumstances you take your pictures....

 

[Rockskipper]

LOLOL Well played, sir.

 

[Rockskipper]

I usually take them in difficult circumstances, but when that doesn't work out, I steal them off the outernet.
