It was a long road to get here. In 2022 I took a planned year off from running ultra marathons to let my body recover and to try some new things. Some of the new things included injuries. Nothing major and I didn’t have any big races planned that required training. I just coasted on my accumulated fitness. Basically just running races with no training. In 2023 I was hoping to return… Read More
Growing up we all have ideas about who we want to be as our lives progress. We think about jobs and careers that we might want to have. We think about things we would not want to do. And we also think about aspects of life we would choose to pursue or not. Get married? Have children? Own a home or rent? Live in a city or in the country? These are… Read More
One of my favorite types of photography to pursue is landscape photography. And within that field of photography one of my favorite niches is waterfall photography. There are so many reasons to love waterfalls. But, I am not going to get into every single on of them here in this short post. I often write about waterfall photography so search on my site for waterfalls to learn more.
Hiking. I enjoy hiking. I often seek out trails to hike and explore them with my camera. This can vary from local river trails right in town, to local nature centers, nearby state parks and trails that traverse the entire state but passes nearby where i live.
I love nature photography. One of the best things about it is that it can always surprise you. It can surprise you in so many different ways. You might see a flower in a different color you’ve never seen before. Maybe a tree you have walked by countless times is flowering and you have never before seen it flower. Or maybe migrating birds show up at your local park. Today I was… Read More
Running is fun. Having goals around your running can make running even more enjoyable. However, finding balance can be a real struggle. Accepting limitations. Making the best of it when things don’t go as planned. Trying to do the most training you can without causing setbacks. It’s all part of what makes running such an enjoyable sport, even if it doesn’t feel like it in the moment
If you are thinking about going gout to take some photos don’t sleep on your small local parks. It is easy to always desire a trip to our many beautiful state and national parks. Going out to someplace that is more wild. Especially if you are a nature, landscape, or wildlife photographer. But, those are not the only places to find those parts of our natural world. There is a lot of… Read More
It can be a challenge to go out and create photography as often as we would like to. It can be even more challenging to go out and go someplace specific for your photography. But guess what? There isn’t a need to go anywhere to create your photography. If you are feeling the urge to create some photography it can be as simple as opening your door. Open that door. Smell the… Read More
As an artist have you ever had something you have wanted to do but just never gotten around to doing it. It wasn’t a priority at the moment. There didn’t feel like a sense of urgency to get it done now. So we just put it off, and off, and off. That has been me a lot of times. As a photographer, I have driven by local scenic areas and thought to… Read More
There are a lot of photography subjects that just came natural to me. Photographing them was just a natural extension of who I am. Turning my love of photography to that part of my life I already loved. Photographing nature, wildlife, dogs, and sports is just part of who I am. It can take a little more effort and sometimes a little more planning to photograph subjects that don’t come natural to… Read More
