Arizona Fall League
I made it to one Arizona Fall League game in Phoenix, and picked a good one. Washington National prospect Matt Purke struck out seven in four hitless innings and got the win for the Mesa Solar Sox, 6-1 over Peoria. His teammates supported him with four long homers, including three in the fourth inning.
I wish I had a Canon 5D Mark III when I was trying to shoot nighttime baseball 10 years ago. High ISO performance is outstanding. Click on image for larger version.

Grand Canyon Elk
Kudos to the State of Arizona for stepping in to cover up the failures of Beltway partisans, at least in regard to having the Grand Canyon open in time for our visit.
I've never been an enthusiastic landscape photographer. I always keep an eye open for something alive and moving on the landscape, and was happy to spot a small herd of elk hanging around the Visitor Center.

Yet Another Trailcam Update
I've gotten into approximately a six-month cycle for checking my trailcam in Wind Cave National Park, South Dakota. It was time for a checkup this month but I was concerned that the government shutdown might prevent me from getting to the location. But the gates were open and I found lots of images of elk and other critters. Click on images to start slide show.
