I'm Back!


I am so sorry for the absence on my blog. I’ve had a lot going on around here and none of it's been bad. Let me explain.

Since my last blog post—
  1. I turned 40.
  2. I got a part-time job. Photography is not a cheap endeavor.
  3. I built a devoted space for my photography.
  4. I got published in a local magazine.
  5. I got my first gallery acceptance.
It is amazing what can happen in just a few months. Check back soon, I will be posting again now that I have my own space to work.

That is, until I get back home and my backs stiff from carrying the extra weight.      She and I work like a team, and she is a great partner. The photos that we bring back are incredible. They are like the blue prints of w

In may instances a photographer will keep a journal of conditions or times to revisit certain locations.      For me I plan my shots out to the next season. In the Spring, when I go to a particular location, I try to imagine what the Summer, Fall, and Winter scene will look like from that spot. I write it down and set reminders in a calendar a week or two in advance, to revisit that area. And, depending on the weather conditions this may even be a year or two away. Have you ever anticipated the bright colors of Fall to only wake up to a heavy rain fall? The leaves disappear almost over night.       Below are a couple of shots that it took me some time to get just the way I wanted them. From the type of light to the amount of water flowing over the waterfall. I by no means am calling these shots great but, I know that th
