Welcome to Lost River Design. I hope you enjoy browsing through this site. Lost River Design contains digital images and images scanned from photographs, taken in various areas of Alaska, Bermuda, California, Colorado, Guatemala, Hawaii, Montana, Nevada, Washington, and Wyoming. For those of you who have visited this site in the past, I have rearranged the site into major geographic areas.

    More recent sections added to the site, (1) Cascade Range, includes two areas in northern California, (2) Hawaii, currently includes Kauai and Maui, (3) the Olympic Peninsula, west of Seattle, (4) the Basin and Range Geological Province, where Death Valley National Park (currently has twenty four pages of images) and Northern Nevada are the current links in this section, and The Sierra's, where Ruby Mountains, Ebbetts Pass, and Sonora Pass have images taken in May and June 2009.

     I am finally getting around to looking at older color slides and photographs of areas in the Rockies, Sierras, western Canada, Bahamas, and Belize in hopes of adding images to site sections, as well as creating new sections for the web site.  I also have some older color slides of various areas in Europe and the Middle East, and may scan those sometime in the future, as time permits. I will be continuing to add new digital images of the Sierra's and Nevada as well, due to my living along the eastern base of the Sierra's.

    All images in the Alaska, Bermuda, Bodie, Glacier National Park, Guatemala, Kauai, Mendocino, Mammoth Lakes, and Monterey Peninsula areas of this site are digital images, captured with an older  Nikon CoolPix 990. The Olympic Peninsula, Lassen Volcanic National Park, and Burney Falls images were captured more recently with a Nikon D200 digital SLR camera. Death Valley images were captured with both Nikon D200 and D300 cameras (I see a trend here...maybe the Nikon D700 is on the horizon). The Mono Lake and Maui 'land', and the Ebbetts and Sonora Pass' (The Sierra's) were captured with a Nikon D300 camera using a Nikkor 18-200mm lens.  The Northern Nevada images were captured with both Nikon D200 and D300 cameras, using a Nikkor 18-200mm lens. The underwater images in the Maui section were taken with a Canon G9 digital camera housed in a waterproof Ikelite housing. To date, all images of Yosemite National Park, the Lake Tahoe Region, and Carson Pass, all located in The Sierra's section, as well as most images in the Rocky Mountains section, including Yellowstone National Park and Grand Teton National Park, were taken with an Olympus OM-2 SLR 35mm film camera and scanned.

    Due to changes in Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser, you will have to click on the navigation buttons twice in order for the navigation buttons to function, unless your are using Microsoft's newer Internet Explorer 7 or 8 browsers. The change in the older Microsoft browsers is due to a legal action taken against Microsoft. I am looking for a fix to this problem. If you are using any of Mozilla's Firefox browser versions, which I strongly suggest you use for all of you internet surfing, you will not have any problems with the navigation buttons. For those of you still using the Microsoft Internet Explorer browser, I apologize for this inconvenience. However, you should do yourself a favor and switch to the Mozilla Firefox browser...by far the better browser.

    Lost River Design is best viewed at a 1024 x 768 or higher resolution. I also recommend having a high speed internet connection to view the site, for some of the more recent images are as large as 650+kb (0.65mb), but are ~1200x900 pixels. To view full size versions of the images posted throughout the site, just click on the associated thumbnail image on the page you are viewing. You will need to have Java installed on your computer in order to read and use the navigation buttons on this site.
