It’s hard to believe that I’ve already been in Yakima for almost five months. When I first arrived, I was greeted by mid-Autumn, which hung around so long I wasn’t sure that we’d ever see winter.

Now, the days are getting longer and slowly but surely a few buds are popping up on the trees. Regardless of the season, it seems trees inevitably become a subject during slow feature hunting days.
