A few colleagues and clients know that a combination of personal health issues and serious family matters have conspired over the past two+ years to draw me away from nature photography. Traveling back and forth multiple times across the country to support family members with life-threatening health conditions, move elderly parents into an assisted living facility, and visit grandchildren as often as possible on the other side of the country leaves little time for adventure in the great outdoors. However, I am able to make time to shoot in my own backyard, that is, I...
While all the wintry weather this year may have you warming to the idea of becoming a Florida snow bird, it does give us photographers a chance to capture unique images close to home. I encourage you to dress in several layers, stuff chemical hand warmers in your coat pockets, place an extra camera battery in your pants pocket, and venture out in search of the extraordinary. Oh, and remember to pull a traction device on to your boots to prevent slipping and falling on the ice. Thanks to the bitter cold temperatures here in...
For several day temperatures had been hovering in the low 20’s, and the overnight forecast called for low winds. While I am not a big fan of Arctic clippers, I had been waiting for these weather conditions because they are ideal for ice to form in the Inner Harbor.

A few days ago a large box arrived from our friends in Germany stuffed with delicious gingerbread cookies, chocolate, marzipan, stollen, and gummi bears.

With equal excitement I await the arrival of my new Nikon D810. In my letter to Santa I told him my D300 had served as my workhorse camera for the past six or seven years. I explained that I needed to put Old Faithful out to pasture...
In a word, autumn color in WV’s Randolph and Tucker Counties was spectacular this year. The reds in the Bear Rocks Preserve atop Dolly Sods were particularly vibrant. It was indeed quite picturesque.
Baltimore artist Pablo Machioli decided he wanted to create a message of peace and so invited people to participate in a Human Flag of Peace. He explained the idea was to bring people together and have fun while thinking about peace.
Seven years ago I retired as a public librarian and started my photography business. Today I am dusting off my librarian hat to tell you about a book I strongly recommend.
My wife and I, along with our daughter, travelled to NYC and enjoyed the sites. I was particularly happy to find the Bushwick Collective Block Part was happening while we were visiting.
Given the low expense of digital storage media nowadays as well as the capabilities of image management software, I understand why some folks advocate keeping every image. However, I strongly recommend folks be draconian … keep the best and ditch the rest.
