There’s a word for this called recapture photography. I don’t excel at it. On this particular one I’d need to be lower down Mt Sentinel and a bit further up Kim Williams trail. Formerly the Milwaukee road. But it’s certainly cool to see how much it’s changed. #ClarkForkRiver

While I was out downtown taking some fall cell phone photos. That’s the Boone and Crockett building. Formally the Milwaukee depot built in 1910. #MissoulaMt. #ClarkForkRiver

Took a run to old Rattlesnake Creek Dam location today. I think this is one interesting postcard. It’s dated 1906 the dam was built in 1904. It went out of use in 1983 and was demolished in 2020. The handwriting and message are pretty nifty.

Got asked a lot of questions about my photography this past weekend. Was in a show for veterans artists. I sometimes don’t know how to answer. I just enjoy taking photos. Hope it inspires someone else to take pictures as well.

Sepia photograph (filter) of Bison is a reddish-brown color, named after the rich brown pigment derived from the ink sac of the common cuttlefish Sepia. #CSKTBisonRange #NorthAmericanBison #Montana

A 2023 Hellgate Canyon eagle photo. I've followed this nest probably close to ten years or more now. I still get just as excited as the first time. When they give me the opportunity to photograph them. #America #ClarkForkRiver #Missoula

"Miss Montana" is a historic Douglas C-47 (DC-3) transport aircraft, famous for its post-WWII career dropping smokejumpers in Montana. Our grandparents were hard as nails. #MissMontana #Montanaproud #GreatestGeneration

Love the Hellgate eagles. Given me so many opportunities to capture them over the years. Funny to think i see something most everyday. That most of the world will never see in person. #Eagle #Montana #HellgateCanyon

13 April 2026 Ran down to the Hell Gate nest for a quick bit. To see what Iris was up to today. Watched her go over the Rattlesnake area and return with a branch. Always neat to watch her carry those things in. Hopefully get over there a little more this week.Hellgate Osprey

16 Apr 2026 Spent some time watching Iris. Was fortunate to get a some snow photos. There's a lot of Osprey photos but not a ton of them in the snow. So I appreciate that. This male osprey showed up. Don’t believe it was Louis. Hellgate Osprey
