I had the same title on a post last year at this time so I guess now it is tradition. In this scene I am reminded how I meant to get out there and photograph the ice more than I actually did. It seemed that every time it snowed the timing was not right or […]


I suppose it is just another number but this post is my 200th and I felt I should make note of it! I started blogging in January 2009 as a way to display my photographs and express my thoughts about photography. Acting as a photo journal; I can scroll through and see where I’ve been, […]


The day following our last big snow storm I ventured out for a second time, to see if I could capture a sunset shot with snow. It was windy and very cold but I dressed for the weather determined that a ‘try, try again’ approach would eventually pay off! I had a place and composition […]


I ventured out in the snow-covered ‘Pines’ this morning … after a little digging out. I just love what snow does to the landscape … its so different and exhilarating! Winter has become one of my favorite times of the year to photograph. With the sun lower to the horizon in winter we have extended […]


I’ve been hunting for a place where I could use my 6-stop ND filter to capture bubbles in motion and finally found a suitable place while scouting today.

The Pinelands […]


Last weekend I met some friends before sunrise for a shoot at a nearby spot. We knew the moon would be setting just after sunrise and when we got there it was hiding behind the clouds. It was dark out and I liked the way the bright moon lit up the cedar silhouettes across the […]


Some images just cry out for black & white conversion as did the images below. There was actually very little difference between the color versions and the final images. Hearing that the forecast called for morning fog one weekend not too long ago, I ventured into the pines on both Saturday and Sunday. Having captured […]


Having not posted since January 22nd, I felt compelled to do so. I haven’t been shooting much in the last couple of weeks except on a couple of occasions when my ‘cabin fever’ was so bad I just had to get out! As someone who has always liked winter and the snow it is hard […]


A Birding Trip

29Mar10

Last weekend I, along with two friends went on a bird-watching trip sponsored by the Delaware Valley Orinthology Club. The tour was led by an expert from the New Jersey Conservation Foundation. We went to spots in the Brendan Byrne State Forest and the Franklin Parker Preserve, in Chatsworth. First we went to call on […]
