In a recent post, Why No People?, I attempted to answer the question why there are so seldom any people in my images. What it all comes down to is that I like the personal feeling that my images represent to me. It is me at one with nature. I am alone in my world. [...]

There’s a saying that goes something like “If God hands you lemons, make lemonade.” And of course there is the Jimmy Buffett/Parrothead corollary – “If God hands you limes, make Margaritas!” This story below is an example of making lemonade from lemons… or, if you prefer, Margaritas from limes. Late Saturday night we made the decision to head [...] When we went to bed Sunday night we had no definitive plans for Monday. I awoke around 0330 and as I lay in bed, what to do became crystal clear. I thought back to Thursday, the day I made the sunrise abstracts. I set out that morning to make some vertical sunrise images at Lake [...] Sunday was the day we chose for a return trip to the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area.

Nothing really went as planned and yet as I sit here on Sunday evening, everything appears to be ending well. And for that I am thankful. Virtually all my photography this weekend involved very short jaunts (it’s about a 20-25 minute drive) to a local lake (Lake Nockamixon in [...] They go hand-in-hand. So often I find myself looking at a composition in the field or in-camera only to have some song title or lyric or musical genre come to mind. Here are two examples from this weekend past. As soon as I saw this first image on the camera screen, the song “Stars on the [...] This series, well it’s only two images, is from an evening walk along the Delaware Canal towpath (Delaware Canal State Park, PA) which, for much of its length, runs along a narrow spit of land between the canal and the Delaware River. I have often joked that it is a state park that is nearly [...] |
