After nearly choking to death in my sleep, I finally hauled my behind out of bed at 4am and decided I'd go hiking today.

While having my first smoke and coke of the day, I sharted. Lovely.

If that's not a sign to go hiking on ridgetops alone without telling anyone where I'm going or when I'll be back, I don't know what is!

Aparently on a clear day, the views are breathtaking. It was rainy today but I love clouds so, off I went. (Make that hiking alone on MUDDY ridgetops...)

That first step is a Lulu!

En o trail, bruddah

The clouds were sticking to my hairy arms. (I'm selling this shot on Etsy!)

That was a pretty good hike but much harder than the one I posted a couple of weeks ago.

It was windy too.

the wind

WOW.

Blown away. WOW!

I mean, LOOK at all that POT!

I was like, totally stoked, dude!

Seriously Jiggy, holy shit you're a great photographer. You've gotten way way better over the years, and you started out pretty darn good. That first shot of the valley in the clouds is amazing. You make me want to move to Hawaii with every one of these threads.

I'm no photo-critic - but while your subjects are always breathtaking, your style and framing is very accessible and human - such that someone really feels like they are THERE, rather than looking through the slightly askew eyes of an art-teest? Does that make sense?

Really, really beautiful.

Holy crap. So nice!!!!

The second pic is now my wallpaper. Looks great on a black background!

Squid took the words out of my brain -- absolutely stunning photos, Jiggy! And I like the dew on your arm hair, too.

With you walking in the clouds, it's very camelot. ... tropical camelot.

I hate you!











Not really, just wanna be there. You put that shot up on Etsy and I'll buy it. Squid is right you have gotten so good with the picture taking.

My mancrush never fails! And the dew on the arm hair: simply dreamy.

Love these pics!!!

Would you email the forest and mist in hi-res to oddtodd7@gmail.com

I'd like it for new wallpaper!

I tried the one there but its all pixelly and stuff

thanks for posting !

I want the arm hair photo in HDres!

... what Squid said.

yah, what Squid said.

And by golly even at your age your stamen are still perky!

Jiggy, that choking thing is scarey! Has that happened before? Am I missing a joke? I hope I'm missing a joke.

You are officially invited to come here and take some Hawaii pictures. But pictures of here. Plus you can't stay very long. Just long enough to take pictures.... 'cause that's how I am. Crabby. Unless you think it's a fun time to sit on your porch and whack a stick on floor and yell at people is a fun time. Well, then you could stay for a while.

Thanks everyone.
I love to walk around and take pics. It's nice to have a place to share them.

Todd, I didn't know which one you meant so I sent three different ones.

Bider, the choking thing was weird and I think anon was right on the other thread, acid reflux. (is that the same thing as heartburn?) I have trouble with that if I eat something spicy before bed and I had pizza for dinner Saturday.
Also, I'm a total grouch so sitting on the porch being grumpy sounds like a good time.

Incredible fotos, Jiggy!
Thanks for sharing.

The pictures so beautiful, the words so ugly, the dichotomy too much for my little brain.

I made this one my wallpaper

Dear tOdd

That's too big. You are hereby fined $5.

Love

Wow, Jiggy --that's Maui, right? I had a date there back in the day and the whole memory of that day just wooshed back.

And a tip if you'd like it for acid reflux --drink some green tea a few times a week. It has some chemical in it that acts as a neutralizer.

dammit I can't see them!
