And yes, the bobcat (trail cam photos) is in color. If I seem to lack imagination, I guess I kind of do, since I posted a bunch of black and whites from the Cougar Trail last week along with a bobcat from my trail camera in color. Last week I forgot to switch out the alkaline batteries for lithium, and I've learned from devastating experience that the former freeze and prevent the camera from working. I had huge mountain lion tracks in the snow not ten feet from a camera several years ago, but no lion videos; the temperature had dropped below 32 degrees.
Anyway, this morning I proceeded downstream from where I hiked last week, because the canyon takes on an entirely different look, very dramatic with more exposed rock formations. It's always a somewhat challenging hike with a sketchy trail, and with rushing water and icy patches it becomes more so. But that is when it is at its most photogenic. Again, I chose to convert from color because I felt the images would have more impact. I hope you agree.
An artistic venture! Thanks for sharing.

Of course. As you can see, it would be hard to go wrong on that trail. Evidently the bobcat agrees.
The ice makes it really interesting.

Thanks for looking. We have a lot more water in the creeks as we head into winter this year so I'm anxious to explore other areas. I find ice formations mesmerizing.

Oh, me too, and evidently this kitty is a regular.
Nice! Love B&W and the bobcat is a great find!
Most impressive tonal captures on the ice images. Well done.
