I live in an area of rivers. So it is surprising to me how little landscape photography I have featuring rivers. Especially compared to other types of scenery I have photographed. This image is a nice combination of two things I don’t photograph enough. A winter scene and a river scene. I like how the sun is trying to power through the clouds on this cold and storming day. The light from… Read More

I haven’t gotten out for winter photography as much as I would like over the years. When I do get out I usually keep it local. I enjoy investigating what some of my favorite local sites look like in winter. So much can change over the seasons. One of my favorite places to explore is Tanglewood Nature Center literally across the river valley from my home. There are a wide variety of… Read More

On my trips to Acadia National Park one of the most popular places for people to visit has been Thunder Hole. This beautiful landscape draws crowds of people. In addition to the landscape itself being beautiful if the tides are crashing on the shore just right it causes I loud booming noise ion that location, thus the name Thunder Hole. I have not yet been fortunate enough to experience the booming of… Read More

I really enjoy hiking. Getting out and exploring nature by foot. I’ll go for just about any type of hiking adventure. But, not too many hiking adventures can compete with hikes that lead to beautiful views from mountain overlooks. Exerting myself to climb up to a view of nature like this is one of the most satisfying feelings for me. There are so many amazing views to explore. I really need to… Read More

Winter is a time of year when I can really struggle in creating new photography. I am much less adventurous in winter. And my photography probably suffers for that. I always want to take more winter landscape photographs, but somehow never seem to make it happen. Getting out and actually creating some nice winter scenes always makes me happy and fulfilled. For anyone else whose photography drops off during winter I wanted… Read More

I always like to check out new spaces. This was my first time at Hemlock Lake. I look forward to going abck. I was lucky to have this beautiful winter scene to photograph. Snow covered levee. Frozen Lake. Geese all about. There was a large flock of geese on the lake. There are two flocks of gees flying in towards the lake off in the distant sky. I wasn’t quite sure what… Read More

Always take a minute to look up. You never know what might be hanging over your head. When I get out for photography in winter I like to look for interesting ice formations. Icicles are obviously a good choice when you can find them. Fortunately in our area there are a variety of gorges to visit and look for interesting icicle formations. These icicles were hanging from the gorge wall at Watkins… Read More

The motion of the river far below. Combined with the motion of the leaves blowing in the wind up high. Looking down into the river valley at Letchworth State Park. I like how the two different types of motion are combined in this photo. Photo details: Nikon D300S. Tamron 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3. Focal length 18mm. ISO 125. 5.0 sec. f/13. Thank you for joining me on the blog today. See more photos of… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 58. Today was a day like I haven’t had many of this winter. My wife and I got out of the house and spent most of the day outside enjoying some nature. We were able to visit two of New York’s Finger Lakes. The weather was supposed to be unseasonably warm. Thawing our region out of the deep freeze of ice and snow packed tightly across… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 30. Today I got out and photographed one of my favorite types of subjects, waterfalls. I love photographing waterfalls. They offer so many unique photographic opportunities each time you visit. I am fortunate to live in a region rich in these opportunities. With this long persistently cold winter we’ve been having in upstate New York I decided it was the perfect opportunity to get out and… Read More
