So much of what I love in life has come through the intertwining of various passions I have in my life. Growing up with a love of nature. Discovering a love for photography, quite by accident. Trying to regain some level of fitness an shockingly developing a love for running. One thing that I love feeds into another thing that I love which in turn enhances another aspect of my life. This… Read More

There are a lot of nice places to explore nature near where I live. One of my favorite local spots is Steege Hill Nature Preserve from the Finger Lakes Land Trust. There are several trails to explore while at Steege Hill. The trail I like the most is the yellow trail. And this photo illustrates my favorite part of that particular trail. On this section of trail there is a persistent layer… 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

One photo a day challenge: Day 223. My original thought for today was to photograph more of the new flowers that I bought recently. But when I was getting around to take photos this evening I looked out the window and there were nice clouds in the sky. We haven’t been having many night skies with interesting clouds lately. I decided to switch things up and photograph the sky instead of the… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 104. I have been trying to work in photography of subjects I don’t often work with. This cemetery is right near where I run frequently. Today on my way to go for a run I stopped and photographed the cemetery a little bit first. I wasn’t really sure what I wanted to do at first. I was just looking for something that interested me. The trees… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 96. I really wanted to get outside and enjoy the day today after spending the day staring at a computer screen. It’s my birthday and I figured I deserved to get out and enjoy some nature. Not too many hours left in the day after work but we made the best of it. I wanted to drive up to Ithaca and visit the Cornell Botanical Gardens…. Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 90. One of the challenges of this project so far for me has been thinking of something different to photograph each day. I could go out and photograph the same thing over and over, but that doesn’t inspire me right now. Maybe once spring is in full bloom and things change regularly that would be more of an option. Right now I really want to photograph… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 84. Todays daily photo is brought to you by having running friends. I didn’t know if I would run today or not. I thought I probably would, but I had a Zoom meeting right when I got home from work. So if I ran I would be more inclined to just run something short right from home. I would not have thought to take my camera…. Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 68. I went for a run today and I brought my camera so that I could take some photos afterwords. The run went great. And the photography went great. I wanted to photograph this beautiful majestic tree in the park. This tree is one of the first subjects I ever photographed. I photographed it for the first time when all I had was a film camera… Read More

One photo a day challenge: Day 60. Over the weekend the weather was so nice for the winter. Today the longer the day went on the worse the weather got. The wind was whipping. I drove through several bands of snow on my commute. The temperatures were starting to drop. The forecast was for temps in the teens over night. I decided to stop at the park on my way home to… Read More
