Happy to report that one of my images “Sunrise” was selected to appear in the Lenswork book “Light, Glorious Light”. An unusual image for me as I normally don’t have color photos published, let alone a landscape. The majority of my published work is in monochrome and my subject matter is usually more detail oriented. I shot this image over ten…
Just though I would post a roundup of some of my autumn themed photos from this year. Not the most beautiful shots but one or two might be good enough for a bank calendar! Nothing special location-wise. I just shot mainly around some local parks. Gear was either my Fujifilm XT3 or Leica M9. Just click on a pic to…
What is it? We shall see. Update in November.
I am a big fan of black and white photography. Even though I no longer use film, I still like to “process” a number of my images into black and white. As a teenager I had a darkroom and shot and processed black and white film almost exclusively. Sure, Kodachrome was another favorite, but with black and white I had…
Regular readers (LOL) may have noticed that I always try to get away from ‘nature’ photography. I seem like I am happier when I get to photograph something of a different, ahem, nature. Yes, I do enjoy the occasional urban/street/automotive/abstract photograph, but I have decided that I will embrace the nature. Yes, I am going to happily photograph the natural…
….in content. I think I’ll take a little break from all of the nature photography I posted here lately. This is not the best time of year for nature photography where I live, so I haven’t been out much amongst the flora and fauna lately. Well, truthfully, I haven’t been out amongst anything lately. That’s another story for another day.…
Generally, if I end up with one or two “good” photos in a year I am happy. I try not to be one of those people who show every photo they take. I really do try to self edit as much as possible. Sometimes one gets through that I later think, “meh, shouldn’t have shown that one”. Other times my…
I am happy to announce that, for the second year in a row, one of my photographs was selected to be a part of the Lenswork Publishing “Our Magnificent Planet 2021” book. The book features 300 photographs from 300 photographers celebrating our natural world. It is an honor to be amongst such skilled artists. I was a little taken aback…
I took some photos of some spring trees in the local park with my Leica M9 the other day. After reviewing the photos that evening I spotted some ideas in one of the photos that would require a closer look than my Leica was capable of. So I headed out the next day with my Fuji gear in hopes of…
My wife and I made the half-hour trip to a nearby park to stretch our legs a bit and enjoy some nice spring weather. It was nice getting away from our neighborhood (which isn’t so nice) to a pleasant place to walk around. Oglebay Park is situated in Wheeling, West Virginia and covers quite a few acres. Since they usually…
