“For twelve years this Nation was afflicted with hear-nothing, see-nothing, do-nothing government. The nation looked to government but the government looked away. Nine mocking years with the golden calf and three long years of the scourge! Nine crazy years at the ticker and three long years in the breadlines! Nine mad years of mirage and three long years of despair! Powerful influences strive today to restore that kind of government with its… Read More
When I first got into photography I imagined photographing majestic creatures. Bears, mountain lions, moose and similar animals. I was inspired by the types of stunning imagery you see in National Geographic. And while I have been fortunate enough to se and photograph a few of those types of animals on occasion they do not make up the bulk of my wildlife photography. The real key is to come to appreciate the… Read More
I don’t know if it good or bad that my favorite photos are both images that I created quite some time ago now. But at least that means I don’t have recency bias. Part of the reason I like the first image from Lucifer’s crossing is that it required a lot of work to create that one image. I had to be on location to capture the photographs in the first place….

When I first started creating these images it was completely by acccident. And I don’t think I liked them very much. They were not what I was hoping to create. Now if I photograph an event and I come back without at least a few interesting swirly images I am a bit disappointed.
In November I have had a couple of opportunities to photograph some races. It is always a fun experience to be out on a race course and capture the moments of runners putting in the effort. In early November I was out on the course for the Revenge of the Red Baron. One of the most challenging events the Southern Tier Running Club has to offer. Then at the end of the… Read More
The sky is rarely the same from moment to moment. That is except when there is a cloudless sky. And people often exclaim that it is a beautiful day with phrases such as a “bluebird sky”. And for me that doesn’t quite resonate. Sure it is nice if it is sunny and warms up. But to me a cloudless sky is least interesting and isn’t particularly beautiful. And I don’t really like… Read More
I photograph a wide variety of subjects. I do a lot of different types of photography. However, there are still quite a few things that I don’t do. My photography generally centers around things that I am passionate about it. So if if it doesn’t move me or inspire me, or I don’t find it interesting then I tend not to photograph it. This shapes and informs the type off work I… Read More
Wow. Photographing fungus. Gotta say of all the ways I imagined photography taking me I definitely did not see this coming. How did this happen to me. Fungus are interesting parts of nature. And the ones that colonize trees really catch my eye.
I enjoy photographing anything that creates a sense of texture. This can appear in so many different ways. From man made substances to natural occurring phenomena. From enormous mountains to tiny grains of sand. One thing I often feel drawn to is ice. Ice can occur in so manny different shapes, sizes, and forms. Ice occurs in so many different circumstances. But the one universal circumstance for ice is that it has… Read More
I love to photograph water. Particularly bodies of water in landscapes. More specifically water that moves through a landscape. It doesn’t have to be a huge flowing river, or a massive waterfall. Even a small trickle over some rocks can draw my attention. And the more opportunities for different photos there are the better. This is why creeks and streams are so amazing. They are abundant. And the landscapes around them can… Read More
