Samantha OhlsenPeople often ask me why I love visiting the Great Ocean Road in winter.

Andrew Flenniken PhotographyA friend reached out last week. She'd been feeling the need to get out of the house and was interested in going to the Holi celebration at Seattle Center on Saturday. Would I like to go too?I very much did. I've been going through a rough patch lately, and getting out of the house to attend something lively and colorful felt like a great plan. So I said yes.Holi celebrations happen here every year in mid March, and it's a Hindu celebration of spring, love, forgiveness, and the triumph of good over evil. I was aware of the Redmond event, but hadn't ever made it out, and shouldn't have been surprised that there was another in Seattle Center. There's a whole slate of cultural events there throughout the year, and the few I've managed to get to have always been great.My friend and I met at the Armoury, had the requisite caffeine, catching up, and lunch, and then wandered into the courtyard next door. There was a DJ, loud, lively music, dancing, and color. So much color!I'm glad I went. I think we could all use some celebrating the triumph of good over evil right about now.Cross-posted from my site, where there are additional photos: <a href="https://andrewflenniken.com/2025/03/25/march-25th-2025-a-colorful-holi-day/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://andrewflenniken.com/2025/03/25/march-25th-2025-a-colorful-holi-day/</a>Gear: Nikon Z 7II, Nikon Z 24-70mm f2.8 S<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Photography</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Holi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Holi</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/SeattleCenter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SeattleCenter</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Nikon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nikon</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/NikonCreators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NikonCreators</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/NikonZ7II" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NikonZ7II</a>

Andrew Flenniken PhotographyI shoot in RAW and, as part of my editing process, I'll usually convert a shot to monochrome mode to do the initial tone adjustments, going back to color after. Sometimes bringing the color back makes me like the shot less, and those end up staying black & white.I had a few shots recently that worked best without color, so here we are: Two-Tone Tuesday.

Andrew Flenniken PhotographyWrapping up the end of day two in Grand Teton National Park.(Full post, with additional photos, on my site: <a href="https://andrewflenniken.com/2025/03/07/march-7th-2025-a-bird-in-the-bend/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://andrewflenniken.com/2025/03/07/march-7th-2025-a-bird-in-the-bend/</a>)After being awed by the ghosts of the Tetons, I pulled my jaw up off the ground and hopped back in the Jeep. I figured that I'd finish the day where it started, in the Oxbow Bend area. I'd noticed in the morning that there was a road going around to the the other side of the Bend, a place the map labeled "Cattleman's Bridge Site". There was no signage off the main road for it, but it looked promising.  So after grabbing a last shot of Mount Moran for the day, down I went.<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Photography</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/GrandTetonNationalPark" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GrandTetonNationalPark</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Nikon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nikon</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/NikonCreators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NikonCreators</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/NikonZ7II" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NikonZ7II</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/SigmaLens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SigmaLens</a>

Our environment is a system of systems, and those natural systems interact with human built ones in a multitude of ways large and small. Wildlife are the ambassadors for those systems. Healthy abundant wildlife means healthy wilderness, which makes those points of contact with human systems healthy. If you like clean air and clean water and the things that rely on them (hint: it's everything), wildlife and wilderness play a big role in those things existing. Defending them is self-defense. We're not separate from them in any meaningful way except physical distance.Frequently not even that! The photos in today's post were taken in a town park (the elk), and on an afternoon whale watching tour.Wildlife is closer than you think. Go see some! You'll enjoy it.Gear: Nikon D750, Nikon Z 7II, Sigma 150-600mm f5-6.3, Sigma 1.4 Teleconverter<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Photography</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/WorldWildLifeDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WorldWildLifeDay</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/SeaLions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SeaLions</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Elk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Elk</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Nikon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nikon</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/NikonCreators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NikonCreators</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/NikonZ7II" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NikonZ7II</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/SigmaLens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SigmaLens</a>

I came across a dirt road going in the general direction I wanted, and followed it until it ended at a wooden gate. The road continued beyond the gate, going downhill towards the river, and someone else was walking down that way with fishing gear. So I grabbed the cameras and followed.Around the gate and down the road was a treat: the ruins of the Bar B C Dude Ranch, founded over a century ago in 1912. The buildings are somewhat preserved by the park, which is why you can see newer roofs on some buildings, but have mostly been left to the elements for decades now.The post I made last year has even more photos, if you want to go and check it out, and one of them is for sale in my site's print store. :)Next Friday: From ghost towns to ghost mountains.Gear used in these shots: Nikon Z 7II, Nikon Z 24-70mm f2.8 S<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Photography</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/GrandTetonNationalPark" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GrandTetonNationalPark</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/GhostTown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GhostTown</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Nikon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nikon</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/NikonCreators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NikonCreators</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/NikonZ7II" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NikonZ7II</a>

The intent was to see if I could find some of the elk that live down that way and get some elk-in-the-snow shots. Alas, I did not see them.So I stopped by one of my favorite views of Mount Si, figuring it would look very nice with a fresh coat of snow.It did. :)Gear: Nikon Z 7II, Nikon Z 24-70mm f2.8 S<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Photography</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/MountSi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MountSi</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/BorstLake" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BorstLake</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Nikon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nikon</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/NikonCreators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NikonCreators</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/NikonZ7II" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NikonZ7II</a>

Clearly a branch somewhere had broken off under the weight and taken a power line with it.Which, obviously, meant my next course of action was clear: get the cameras ready, wait for daylight, put on warm clothes, and then get out into it.It was that wet, sticky snow that covers everything, and all the trees looked like they were coated in marshmallow fluff. I went for a walk to a nearby park and had a good time seeing and shooting; I hope you enjoy what I brought back.Gear: Nikon Z 7II, Nikon Z 24-70mm f2.8 S, Nikon 105mm f2.8 VR Micro<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Photography</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Winter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Winter</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Snow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Snow</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Macro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Macro</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Nikon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nikon</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/NikonCreators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NikonCreators</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/NikonZ7II" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NikonZ7II</a>
