Headed to Baltimore for the Help Portrait event again this year. Many familiar face both the staff that was taking the photos and assisting with hair, make-up, processing and printing to the folks that came in for their portraits. I want to point out the gentleman with the surgical cap on. The cap was created from portraits of his family that he had taken last year during the help portrait event.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt; A great big thanks to our sponsors that help make this a success: HP for printers, ink and paper, Chick-fil-A, BlackRapid Straps - they provided a great strap as a give away and I won it.

I've joined a group called "Help-Portrait" which is a group of photographers (&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;beginners&lt;/span&gt;, advanced and Pros) take photos for FREE to bring some holiday joy to the world. Yes that's right the world. Photographers are gathering all around the world on 12 Dec 2009 to take free photos of &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;single&lt;/span&gt; mom's, homeless, less fortunate than us to give them a sense of hope and show that they are important. The flier below give a litte inofrmation on where we will be on the 12th. If you own a camera or would liek to lend a hand we would love to see you there.

That is just what I did today. I happened to be in Tacoma, Washington so I took the opportunity to head over to the Gifford &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Pinchot&lt;/span&gt; National Forest which is close to Mount Rainer National Park to grab some photos of the falls in the area. A nice peaceful mile hike through the old forest and along the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Covell&lt;/span&gt; Creek brought me to some nice waterfalls. I am a bit confused on which falls I say &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;because&lt;/span&gt; the the website &lt;a href="http://www.waterfallsnorthwest.com/"&gt;http://www.waterfallsnorthwest.com/&lt;/a&gt; shows the major falls pictured below to be the Covell Falls and a sign leading to the falls indcated it was Angel Falls. Either way the hike and falls were breath taking ( yes there was some up hill climbing and boy am I out of shape). Please enjoy the photos below and as always you can see more on my photo site &lt;a href="http://www.mikedugganphotography.com/"&gt;http://www.mikedugganphotography.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SvuHSqZIEpI/AAAAAAAAAjU/_gbq8-18AH8/s1600-h/DSC_4827.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 320px; HEIGHT: 213px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403060932648112786" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SvuHSqZIEpI/AAAAAAAAAjU/_gbq8-18AH8/s320/DSC_4827.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SvuHR-FXa6I/AAAAAAAAAjE/cE8LSRvc7IM/s1600-h/DSC_4796.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 320px; HEIGHT: 213px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403060920754072482" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SvuHR-FXa6I/AAAAAAAAAjE/cE8LSRvc7IM/s320/DSC_4796.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SvuHSGvQH4I/AAAAAAAAAjM/G8G9LgLrPpg/s1600-h/DSC_4818.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 242px; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403060923077238658" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SvuHSGvQH4I/AAAAAAAAAjM/G8G9LgLrPpg/s320/DSC_4818.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SvuHS7mYWHI/AAAAAAAAAjc/OYX9V6PIoJ0/s1600-h/DSC_4835.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 213px; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5403060937267107954" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SvuHS7mYWHI/AAAAAAAAAjc/OYX9V6PIoJ0/s320/DSC_4835.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3676228721945204287-2060358496004684587?l=mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/feeds/2060358496004684587/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/2009/11/washington-waterfalls.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3676228721945204287/posts/default/2060358496004684587'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3676228721945204287/posts/default/2060358496004684587'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/2009/11/washington-waterfalls.html' title='Washington Waterfalls'/><author><name>Mike Duggan Photography</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09705998314196012501</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SeCd820tg0I/AAAAAAAAAAY/-Fe3_AKqr7c/S220/Mike+Iceland+2005.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SvuHSqZIEpI/AAAAAAAAAjU/_gbq8-18AH8/s72-c/DSC_4827.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3676228721945204287.post-6630683013397583457</id><published>2009-11-08T22:01:00.011-05:00</published><updated>2009-11-09T23:16:11.174-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Colorado Road Trip</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Sunday 8 Nov 2009, What a day for a drive throught eh Colorado Country side. We started out in the morning with a trip to Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs. The sun had just risen and there was an overcast sky. After hiking through the Garden of the Gods we headed west just to glimpse the mountain enjoy the beautiful day. Driving along highway 24 to 50 and I do not remember the rest we we presented with the majestic beauty of the Rockies. Along the way home we saw a few cars pulled to the side of the road so we joined them to see a small heard of Big Horn Sheep. The canyon we saw them in was named Big Horn Canyon. All in all a beaufitul day.

On Monday, 2 Nov 09 we went to eat at Cattleman's Steakhouse at Indian Cliffs Ranch just outside of El Paso, TX. A really nice place that I would highly recommend to anyone that is in the El Paso area. I had this whopper of a steak that weighed in at 2 pounds (before cooking). It was the best steak I have ever had. Here are the before and after photos.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SvSjcBjy--I/AAAAAAAAAdM/gitO9ZesLO8/s1600-h/DSC_4464.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 257px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401121554974309346" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SvSjcBjy--I/AAAAAAAAAdM/gitO9ZesLO8/s400/DSC_4464.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SvSjca7oTEI/AAAAAAAAAdU/DFFZv08eIyk/s1600-h/DSC_4465.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5401121561785158722" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SvSjca7oTEI/AAAAAAAAAdU/DFFZv08eIyk/s400/DSC_4465.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3676228721945204287-5745298696415241300?l=mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/feeds/5745298696415241300/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/2009/11/good-eatn-in-el-paso-tx.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3676228721945204287/posts/default/5745298696415241300'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3676228721945204287/posts/default/5745298696415241300'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/2009/11/good-eatn-in-el-paso-tx.html' title='Good Eat&apos;n in El Paso, TX'/><author><name>Mike Duggan Photography</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09705998314196012501</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SeCd820tg0I/AAAAAAAAAAY/-Fe3_AKqr7c/S220/Mike+Iceland+2005.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SvSjcBjy--I/AAAAAAAAAdM/gitO9ZesLO8/s72-c/DSC_4464.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3676228721945204287.post-7496996269060124942</id><published>2009-09-14T18:08:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2009-09-14T18:11:50.067-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Cross Country</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;It’s been a little while since I posted anything here on the blog so I thought I would talk about the Cross Country meet this past weekend. Now as a photographer you sometimes have to step out of your comfort zone and challenge yourself to try something new. Now some of you might be saying shooting a sporting event is nothing new for me but in truth every sport offers different challenges and perspectives. This was my first cross country meet ever. Now since I did not know how the whole thing works I was lucky enough to find one of my co-workers whose son was running in the event. This was an opportunity to learn about how the course was going to be run and where the best vantage points to capture the action would be. I was able to jump around to 4 or 5 different spots within the course and see the race from different angles. Getting from one location to the next on the course was a matter of moving my feet and walking quickly to try and catch the runners that I knew in the race. I’ll give the runners some credit I walked to the spots and they ran the 5k course and made me work to get the shots I did. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and I am a fan of cross country racing.

The site (on the outskirts of Veckring France) was chosen due in part to the forested ridge that rises 1,125 feet and the proximity to Germany which is only 8 miles or 13 kilometers from the boarder. The Hackenberg Fortress was the largest of the fortresses along the line and was the proto type for the remaining fortress. The French occupied the fortress from 3 Sept 1939 until the French cease fire on 25 June 1940. The Germans maintained control of the fortress until 17 Nov 1944.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More information on Hakenberg Fortress can be found &lt;a href="http://www.maginot-hackenberg.com/presentationanglais.htm"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/Sm3xnVLQJWI/AAAAAAAAAYg/GVHsO6IKeyc/s1600-h/DSC_8872.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363208389269661026" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/Sm3xnVLQJWI/AAAAAAAAAYg/GVHsO6IKeyc/s400/DSC_8872.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Front of Fortress&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/Sm3w12sgagI/AAAAAAAAAYY/pCrLP1cuNic/s1600-h/DSC_8873.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363207539274050050" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/Sm3w12sgagI/AAAAAAAAAYY/pCrLP1cuNic/s400/DSC_8873.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Front of Fortress&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/Sm3w1lAlnoI/AAAAAAAAAYQ/DnTpNq12_qk/s1600-h/DSC_8878.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 400px; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5363207534526439042" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/Sm3w1lAlnoI/AAAAAAAAAYQ/DnTpNq12_qk/s400/DSC_8878.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;E.M. is the entrance.

After the First World War, where France suffered horrendous loses in both men and buildings, Andre Maginot designed a fortification system that was in theory going to be an impenetrable fortification between France and Germany.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The photos below show the fortification called Fort Schoenenbourg which is located in the Haguenau region of Alsace, France. The Maginot Line was constructed between 1930 and 1940. Unfortunately we arrived late and were not able to view the interior of the fortification. I was able to tour the inside a few years back and can only say that it was a small city within itself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More information can be found at:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://europeanhistory.about.com/library/weekly/aa070601a.htm"&gt;http://europeanhistory.about.com/library/weekly/aa070601a.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.bunkertours.co.uk/the_maginot_line.htm"&gt;http://www.bunkertours.co.uk/the_maginot_line.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SmtsBuSPV1I/AAAAAAAAAXI/eDH52cgyL0M/s1600-h/DSC_8853.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 400px;

To meander through the city is an experience worth the long walks. We passed through some narrow streets that barely two people could pass shoulder to shoulder. Bridges lead over the canals both small and large. It is amazing that a city could grow from the Mediterranean Sea. The many mode of transportation is either walking or via boat. The “bus” system was beautiful wooden boats that ferried people around the city. Products were transported via boats as well.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;More photos can be seen at &lt;a href="http://www.mikedugganphotography.com"&gt;www.mikedugganphotography.com&lt;/a&gt; under the gallery “travel”.

Walking the campus you get to take in beauty and the majesty of the buildings and have a sense of awe knowing that West Point has played a vital part in American history since the revolutionary war. General George Washington moved his headquarters to West Point in 1779. Over the years many of the greatest military leaders have passed through the halls and campus of West Point. Some notable graduates include: Jefferson Davis class of 1828; Robert E Lee class of 1829; Dwight D. Eisenhower class of 1915; Edwin E. "Buzz" Aldrin class of 1951. History has yet to be written about the more recent graduates, only time will tell. Attached are a few photos from the campus. Also one is in the HDR (High Dynamic Resolution) format. I would be interested in hearing your thoughts on the photos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SjjI2NeFCuI/AAAAAAAAAIA/69jFz5DSX-U/s1600-h/WestPoint_DSC_6331.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348245391156775650" style="WIDTH: 423px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 217px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SjjI2NeFCuI/AAAAAAAAAIA/69jFz5DSX-U/s400/WestPoint_DSC_6331.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SjjI1dUVz_I/AAAAAAAAAHw/3_B1g7MCTq8/s1600-h/DSC_6328.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348245378231029746" style="WIDTH: 266px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SjjI1dUVz_I/AAAAAAAAAHw/3_B1g7MCTq8/s400/DSC_6328.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SjjI1yHP6GI/AAAAAAAAAH4/IEnAfeWXjhw/s1600-h/Westpoint2_Sized.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5348245383813261410" style="WIDTH: 268px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SjjI1yHP6GI/AAAAAAAAAH4/IEnAfeWXjhw/s400/Westpoint2_Sized.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3676228721945204287-4107233489614987490?l=mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/feeds/4107233489614987490/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/2009/06/us-military-academy-west-point.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3676228721945204287/posts/default/4107233489614987490'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3676228721945204287/posts/default/4107233489614987490'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/2009/06/us-military-academy-west-point.html' title='US Military Academy, West Point'/><author><name>Mike Duggan Photography</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09705998314196012501</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SeCd820tg0I/AAAAAAAAAAY/-Fe3_AKqr7c/S220/Mike+Iceland+2005.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SjjI2NeFCuI/AAAAAAAAAIA/69jFz5DSX-U/s72-c/WestPoint_DSC_6331.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3676228721945204287.post-7304852177643437820</id><published>2009-05-18T18:05:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2009-05-18T20:18:06.238-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Sports Photos</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Well it has been a while since I last blogged. I've been out shooting some local sports from baseball to tennis. Ty plays for the Frederick American Little League and since getting back from Hawaii and Korea I have been taking some shots of his team in action. You can see the photos by going to my site and selecting Frederick American Little League. Also, the Frederick County and State Regional tennis &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;tournament&lt;/span&gt; has been underway. Unfortunately Sean and his doubles partner did not make it to the states but played extremely well. One of the Tuscarora girls is going to states and I will be there to "capture the moment" for her and her family.

We got up and had a 5:20 am flight to the Island of Maui. We were not sure what the plan was but we decided to go whale watching first, hunt for water falls, visit the volcano (yep another one) and then go to the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Iao&lt;/span&gt; Valley. The photos below are &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;just&lt;/span&gt; an example of the great time we had. The whale watching was a 2 hour cruise on a very flat and calm ocean where we saw a Mother and her calf. WOW this was an great experience. Hiked into a water fall and got luck to capture a long exposure since I did not bring the tripod. Learned a lesson, always bring the tripod. Next we drove to the summit of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Haleakale&lt;/span&gt; Volcano in the Haleakala National Park. It is somewhat difficult to tell the depth of the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;volcanic&lt;/span&gt; crater due to the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;constant&lt;/span&gt; clouds that filled the basin. As they moved out a new cloud formed. Beautiful. Maui is a stunning island that really caught my eye. I will be going back some day.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The best part is that we rode to the airport in a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;stretch&lt;/span&gt; Limo.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SfVdeBsr6ZI/AAAAAAAAAGI/RDFW-t3ay4c/s400/DSC_0373-2.jpg" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 318px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329268504496171410" /&gt;&lt;img src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SfVdeqJHupI/AAAAAAAAAGg/Fg1R_PBJWxE/s400/DSC_0424-2.jpg" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329268515352853138" /&gt;&lt;img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SfVdeliWmSI/AAAAAAAAAGY/lTb4LKQQFwA/s400/DSC_0381-2.jpg" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 234px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329268514116507938" /&gt;&lt;img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SfVdeSg-GQI/AAAAAAAAAGQ/z1VUpG6M_k8/s400/DSC_0380-2.jpg" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 301px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329268509010434306" /&gt;&lt;img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SfVde0GI7sI/AAAAAAAAAGo/_Je8hGEUEiQ/s400/DSC_0614-2.jpg" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329268518024703682" /&gt;&lt;img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SfVd61hLu0I/AAAAAAAAAGw/a1Hlbd9CDTk/s400/DSC_0615-2.jpg" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329268999442905922" /&gt;&lt;img src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SfVd69SyqJI/AAAAAAAAAG4/dPBipHBxKOo/s400/DSC_0644-2.jpg" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5329269001530026130" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3676228721945204287-4527851186512067812?l=mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/feeds/4527851186512067812/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/2009/04/maui-26-april.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3676228721945204287/posts/default/4527851186512067812'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3676228721945204287/posts/default/4527851186512067812'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/2009/04/maui-26-april.html' title='Maui 26 April'/><author><name>Mike Duggan Photography</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09705998314196012501</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SeCd820tg0I/AAAAAAAAAAY/-Fe3_AKqr7c/S220/Mike+Iceland+2005.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SfVdeBsr6ZI/AAAAAAAAAGI/RDFW-t3ay4c/s72-c/DSC_0373-2.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3676228721945204287.post-3863750087702960098</id><published>2009-04-27T02:27:00.008-04:00</published><updated>2009-04-27T03:28:09.748-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Big Island of Hawai'i</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;It's been a couple days since the last entry due to our travels and the time that we arrived back at the hotels. On Saturday, 25 April we went to the bis island of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Hawai'i&lt;/span&gt;. We left at 5:52 am and returned at 10:30 pm. You'll see that I had no time to write on the next blog. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;The Big Island was nice we went over to the Volcano National Park to see if we could see any active lava flows. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Unfortunately&lt;/span&gt;, there were no active flows but we did hike throughout the park and really enjoyed the views and the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;varied&lt;/span&gt; landscapes. We were able to look down into the crater of the one of the largest active volcano in the US and walk through a rain forest. Some of the photos below will give you an idea of the landscape and the sights that we saw. I especially, liked the one shot of the lava covering the road. There were tremendous lava beds through out the park that are dated from different times. Some of the older lava beds are seeing a rebirth of life with trees and plant life growing, as noted in the photo of the palm trees in the lava field. At the site of the lava crossing the road there was a very bad smell of sulfur from the activity just a few weeks ago.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt; More to follow in the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Hawaiian&lt;/span&gt; Adventure.

Do you remember youtr mom telling you not to use that four letter word that ends in "K"...Not that one I'm talking about WORK. Well that seems to get in the weay at times when you want to be out and about taking photos. Here are a couple that I took today. One is a different view of Diamond Head and the others are of what else the beach. I liked the one of the beach in the daylight due to the way that the suns rays were filtered through the clouds. The second beach shot is a peacful sunset with the catamarans coming back in. Beautiful day. Stay tuned over the next few days as I will be visiting the Big Island and Mauai. Should be a lot of fun.

We are now in &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Hawaii&lt;/span&gt; which means that we got to live April 23rd again. We left Korea around 8:50 pm on the 23 April and arrived in Honolulu on 23 April at 1000 am. Time travel is a good thing but let me tell you we are all beat.&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;So this one will be a bit short and you will get to see a lot more of the week each day so please check back to see what we were up to.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Once we arrived and were able to check into our rooms we headed out for a short walk to see some of the sights. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Now&lt;/span&gt; Hawaii is well know for it's beaches and we were not disappointed. Along the beach folks were surfing and playing beach volleyball. Couple of photos of the surfing and the volleyball.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SfFcwFgaG5I/AAAAAAAAAEI/H4zy21zeo1w/s400/DSC_0050.jpg" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 312px; height: 400px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5328141815337589650" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SfFcjQIpxLI/AAAAAAAAAD4/5f_i0SiuFqI/s400/DSC_0041.jpg" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 302px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5328141594852443314" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;We continued to walk down the path along the beach and I took this shot of Diamond Head. Might have to see about climbing it. As we came back we spotted a couple of Red &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Crested&lt;/span&gt; Cardinals. Now I am sure you are asking how I knew they were Red &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Crested&lt;/span&gt; Cardinals, right...well I looked it up in a book.

Been working a lot and only have a little time in the evenings to go explore. On Tuesday night a few of us went to a Korean barbecue which was a lot of fun. We had no idea how it worked so the waitress gave us the run down and helped cook the food. Korean Barbecue is cooked at the table and eaten like a burrito. Only difference is that instead of a flour or corn tortilla you wrap it in a leaf of lettuce or a sesame leaf. Really good. I've add a couple of pictures from a street vendor, it looks like beef that is being cooked. Maybe tonight I will venture out and give it a try.&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/Se4ynf3VY1I/AAAAAAAAADI/b1k-JgvHP6U/s400/DSC_0031.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 277px;" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327251063375749970" border="0" /&gt;&lt;img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/Se4ynhQLt9I/AAAAAAAAADQ/vrYa5taOLCE/s400/DSC_0032.JPG" style="cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 266px;" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327251063748409298" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3676228721945204287-6516808204040098680?l=mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/feeds/6516808204040098680/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/2009/04/korean-food.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3676228721945204287/posts/default/6516808204040098680'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3676228721945204287/posts/default/6516808204040098680'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/2009/04/korean-food.html' title='Korean Food'/><author><name>Mike Duggan Photography</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09705998314196012501</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SeCd820tg0I/AAAAAAAAAAY/-Fe3_AKqr7c/S220/Mike+Iceland+2005.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/Se4ynf3VY1I/AAAAAAAAADI/b1k-JgvHP6U/s72-c/DSC_0031.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3676228721945204287.post-2772841883260578629</id><published>2009-04-19T15:40:00.006-04:00</published><updated>2009-04-19T16:27:44.016-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Korea'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Gyeonbokgung Palace'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Seoul'/><title type='text'>Gyeongbokgung Palace 2</title><content type='html'>&lt;p align="left"&gt;I wanted to add a few more photos from the palace that we visited on Sunday, 19 April 2009.

We just caught this ceremony when we walked up to the palace.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SesUF1XYHPI/AAAAAAAAACI/DxG7wgvYilc/s1600-h/DSC_0078.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 167px;

Flight thus far is very good; &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;attendants&lt;/span&gt; are very nice and helpful. We just ate I had &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Bibimbop&lt;/span&gt;, Seaweed soup and white sticky rice. It was really good and I can not wait to try the food on the ;&lt;br /&gt;local economy vise airline food. I'll try to put up some photos of the food so you can have a look.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SepJY3tbO7I/AAAAAAAAAB4/sRk7rtSph5Q/s1600-h/bibimbop.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 291px; HEIGHT: 264px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5326150200939199410" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SepJY3tbO7I/AAAAAAAAAB4/sRk7rtSph5Q/s400/bibimbop.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Looking at the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;in flight&lt;/span&gt; map it appears that we will be flying in sunlight the entire trip. I &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;ques&lt;/span&gt; sleep is out of the "picture" so to speak. We are traveling at 494 mph at 34,000 feet. The total distance of the trip to Korea is 6,073 miles. Just opened the window shade and we are over the Hudson bay which is still &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;frozen&lt;/span&gt;. I'll put a couple of shots of that up.&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SepDRuoYiDI/AAAAAAAAABg/OJ3CmdJMe8M/s1600-h/DSC_0003.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 388px; HEIGHT: 247px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5326143481173280818" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SepDRuoYiDI/AAAAAAAAABg/OJ3CmdJMe8M/s400/DSC_0003.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hudson Bay&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I've decided to keep this somewhat running &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;in order&lt;/span&gt; to have something to do on the flight. Right now it is 1908 east coast time (Fri 17&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_6" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt; Apr) and 0828(Saturday in Korea) We just crossed the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_7" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;Arctic&lt;/span&gt; Circle above the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_8" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;Northwest&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_9" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;Territories&lt;/span&gt; approaching the Beaufort Sea and the Yukon. Not much to see out the window, everything is very bright snow. Flight has been smooth so far and hope it stays that way (and it did). Still no sleep.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SepG-RQyjsI/AAAAAAAAABo/qKbhtGiirJ8/s1600-h/DSC_0017.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="WIDTH: 402px; HEIGHT: 227px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5326147544918691522" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SepG-RQyjsI/AAAAAAAAABo/qKbhtGiirJ8/s400/DSC_0017.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_10" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Arctic&lt;/span&gt; (above the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_11" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Arctic&lt;/span&gt; Circle)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_12" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;OK&lt;/span&gt; we landed in Seoul International Airport &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_13" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;which&lt;/span&gt; is actually in &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_14" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Incheon&lt;/span&gt; Korea. Drove to the Dragon Hill Lodge where we will be staying and got a nice &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_15" class="blsp-spelling-corrected"&gt;scenic&lt;/span&gt; view of the country side and the city of Seoul. Can't wait to go explore the city and get some incredible photos. Here is a shot of a Street vendor selling rice cakes on a 6 lane (all one way) highway.

With the warmer temps it’s time to get out and enjoy the world around us. Last weekend in Washington DC they held the Cherry Blossom Festival, with major grounds where ever you ventured to along the mall. We decided to go see the blossoms for the first time and enjoy the warmth of the day. We walked all along the mall from the Smithsonian to the Viet Nam Memorial Wall. We took in the sites of the tidal basin over looking the Jefferson Memorial and absorbed the fragrances of the cherry blossoms. While at the tidal basin the gulls were soaring in the warm air while those of us on foot managed to get through the crowds. Good time by all.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3676228721945204287-2947240140647043929?l=mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/feeds/2947240140647043929/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/2009/04/well-it-looks-like-spring-is-finally.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3676228721945204287/posts/default/2947240140647043929'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3676228721945204287/posts/default/2947240140647043929'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://mikedugganphotography.blogspot.com/2009/04/well-it-looks-like-spring-is-finally.html' title='Spring'/><author><name>Mike Duggan Photography</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09705998314196012501</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SeCd820tg0I/AAAAAAAAAAY/-Fe3_AKqr7c/S220/Mike+Iceland+2005.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/SeH0-MKvfDI/AAAAAAAAAA4/U0wK0RM46tU/s72-c/Soar.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3676228721945204287.post-5467693712796953931</id><published>2009-04-10T13:53:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2009-04-10T18:09:11.383-04:00</updated><title type='text'>Soccer Game</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/Sd-KftreQwI/AAAAAAAAAAM/rjROnYuCwTA/s1600-h/ICS+Team.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5323125562017727234" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: pointer; HEIGHT: 194px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rqI8IcufsKA/Sd-KftreQwI/AAAAAAAAAAM/rjROnYuCwTA/s320/ICS+Team.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the coach of the office soccer team I am happy to announce that we won our first game 7-5. Record now stands at 1-1, but we are on a roll. The first game was miserable with the wind, snow flakes falling and the general lack knowledge of the game. The team only has a few players that have played organized soccer in the past. Great time and look forward to the games next week.
