Our babies are gone...

Boy, it sure was tough to see our babies go off to the sale barn!  We sure got attached to them since we got them last Spring.  We were able to feed a couple of the steers from our hands.  These close-up photos were taken with my "fun" 20mm lens.  Aren't they the cutest steers you've ever seen?

More Alaskan Favorites

Here are some more of my favorite photos from Alaska.  This mountain range photo was taken on our first train ride from Fairbanks to Anchorage.
Some photos look better in black and white and I thought this photo fit that category...
I saw this seal before anyone else on the ship since I was using my 100-400mm lens.  It was a gorgeous first morning of our cruise.
The lighting made for some good reflection photos for this glacier.
Another glacier reflection photo...
I never get tired of photographing seagulls.  Here's one looking for a treat! :)
Here's two more.  This photo reminds me of two bombers coming in to bomb their target! :)
I stayed out on the ship till it got dark to get this photo.
Just before dark the sky had a pink hue.  It was beautiful!!!
This was taken after arriving in Canada before taking the train ride back to Alaska.  These rock collections have a meaning for the natives but I forgot what it was! :)
 This is my favorite shot while in the rain forest in Juneau, Alaska.
 Here's another version of the fireweed in front of the Mendenhall Glacier,
 I don't know what kind of fish these were but they were jumping out of the water.
God gave us beautiful weather on our last day cruising to Vancouver, Canada.
