Spring recently arrived in upstate New York. And I always look forward to the new growth of spring. But here in this region of New York one never knows what the weather may bring. The date on the calendar is almost irrelevant.

I love a good adventure. And adventure can mean so many different things. Usually for me an adventure means getting outdoors in some way. A friend and I were planning to go for a nice long hike. Hopefully hitting some new to us trails. But, things didn’t go as expected. The morning of our planned adventure it was a snow storm. We couldn’t really find the trail parking spot indicated on the… Read More

I love photographing waterfalls. What I love about waterfalls is the constant motion. Constant change. No two images of a waterfall are ever exactly the same. This goes double for waterfall images in the fall. I love to find a waterfall where there are leaves in the water. The leaves in motion add another irreplaceable element to an image. Leaves flowing down stream create interesting streaks in the water. They are there… Read More

I love fall. And I love photographing fall. Unfortunately the most spectacular aspect of fall, the one we most closely associate with fall, the changing colors of the leaves is quite fleeting. In some places it is more fleeting than others. It is hard to define a timeline. It is challenging to know when to go out and try to capture these colorful leaves in photos. Due to the fickle nature of… Read More

This year has been a particular kind of challenging for me. I like to do big adventures. I like to push my physical limits. Run all the miles. Climb all the mountains. And now even biking. But the last two years and especially this year has seen me battling small nagging injuries that have limited my ability to participate in these types of adventures. This fun adventure to tackle some trails has… Read More

The waterfall trail at Rickets Glen State Park is one of the most beautiful places I have been to. It is a place I constantly think of returning to but for some reason or another never seem to make it there. I have maybe been there a handful of times at most. But this year as part of my commitment to do more fall photography than I have in past years it… Read More
