I love photographing trees because of all the variety of texture. Winter adds an extra element of texture. I have a love hate relationship with winter. I really don’t mind cold weather as long as it isn’t extreme bitter cold. Putting on some warm clothes and heading outside for an adventure or just some fresh air is a nice experience for me. Especially if I have something to point my camera at.

When photographing public parks I often get hung up with excluding anything man made from the photos. I really try to focus on the natural part of the scene. It really bothers me if I look back at a photo and realize there… Read More

In June of 2024 we went on a camping trip to Shenandoah National Park. This was our first trip there. And there was so much to see and do. We camped at the Loft Mountain Campgrounds, which I really enjoyed. The campground had a nice combination of foliage and openness. We were often surrounded by wildlife. From the birds constantly flitting about in the bushes surrounding our campsite, to the rabbits along… Read More
