By Ted Grussing … before heading down to Falcon this afternoon I headed up to Flagstaff and beyond to photograph the peaks and volcanic cones left behind by volcanic eruptions over millions of years and over the past several days recipients of snow … lots of it. I got some good video too and hope to work on it a little tomorrow. Also I got some very neat close up shots of the peaks, mostly from the east and north sides. There was about a 25 kt wind for 041 at the peaks and it was pretty neat as the…

By Ted Grussing … when conditions are relatively benign I enjoy flying within the caldera of the San Francisco Peaks … especially during the fall color and capture the beauty within this relatively small ecosystem that has unique weather patterns and a rare beauty unique to it.

Things you’ve counted on for years fall away. Clients leave.
By Ted Grussing … last month I stopped at the ponds to do some duck hunting (with camera only) and got some nice shots of a few mallards dropping in to one of the ponds … and this is one of them as he was just starting his flare and landing gear (webbed feet) coming down for the landing. I do like the ponds, the relative quiet and sometimes intense action. On this day it was a quiet one and only a few birds flying … a fun one.

By Ted Grussing … I probably would have made it to church a little earlier this morning had I not become entranced by the beauty of God’s creation found next to my trash bin. It was raining, it is still raining and the drops adhere to leaves, berries and add beauty which enchants and excites the soul. So it was back into the house and about twenty minutes shooting water drops on the leaves, berries, pine needles and anything else I saw. Truly it was fun … whoops … need to leave so I can get to church before it…
