“In republican government, the legislative authority necessarily predominates. Justice is the end of government. It is the end of civil society. It ever has been, and ever will be, pursued, until it be obtained, or until liberty be lost in the pursuit. A coalition of a majority of the whole society could seldom take place upon any other principles, than those of justice and the general good.” – James Madison from notes… 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 am fortunate to live in an area that features an abundance of waterfalls. And I have become increasingly drawn too photographing waterfalls over the years. It is hard to think about what would be my favorite waterfall. Every waterfall is so unique. And every waterfall changes so much depending on when you visit. But the presentation and environment surrounding the waterfall contributes to how it makes me feel. Watkins Glen State… Read More

When I have the opportunity I really like to make the most of it. Getting out on an all day adventure to photographs a variety of different subjects. On this particular trip the subject was waterfalls. Not just any waterfalls, but frozen waterfalls. Frozen waterfalls might be the best kind of waterfall. They just look so unique. So, when their weather was cold enough long enough I picked a day and I… Read More

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.

Water in motion is one of my favorite subjects. Water in motion never presents the exact same image twice. The water keeps moving and flowing, constantly changing. And over time the flow of water can change the entire landscape.

One of my favorite landscapes to photographs a re frozen waterfalls. However, the weather is not always right to create a nice scene. Sometimes it just isn’t cold enough long enough to start to freeze the water. And sometimes there is no snow. The challenge to being someone who loves photographing specific occurrences in nature like frozen waterfalls is that you have to be able to get out there to take the… Read More

Weather here in upstate New York is fickle. It is especially so during winter. Temperatures can range from 50 degrees to -10 and the windchill can be punishing, The last several years there has not really been much in the way of significant snowfall during the colder months. For me that makes enjoying photography a little more challenging. I prefer to photograph nature, but the plain drab scenes during a winter with… Read More

Over the years of photography I have added a few new photography tools to my kit. Each time I add a new tool it is because it serves a specific purpose. A purpose that will hopefully be able to capture new images. I often don’t get out to take photos as much as I would like during the colder months here in New York. So, whenever I have a chance I try… Read More

Ponds are one of my favorite features to find in a landscape. There is so much you can do with a pond photographically. Ponds also do so much for nature, which I find interesting. We liked the idea of a pond so much that we bought a house with a pond on its property and the pond was a large part of what drew us to our current home. There is a… Read More
