Hurry Sunrise

I’m a morning person. There is no doubt about it! Been a morning person practically my whole life and, at this late age, I don’t see that changing any. So what can I say? I have come to love sunrises. And I love photographing them. Each one is different in some way or another.

Just Another Tequila Sunrise

This past weekend (and thank God we have another coming up) turned out to be an excellent one, photographically speaking. I’ve already shared two images from last Saturday (A Reflection Upon a Reflection and Just for Fun) here on my blog and have a couple more that I will share in this post… and I [...]

Sunrise/Sunset Over the Lake (Part 2 – Sunset)

This is the follow-up to my previous post highlighting the sunrise images from the weekend.

This first sunset image is one that I had been thinking about all week. I knew what I wanted to do or at least try. I wanted to make sunset (and sunrise) images using the Lensbaby with the Fisheye optic. I [...]

Here’s the story. I made this image yesterday morning shortly after sunrise [...]

Marina Sunrise

We returned to Lake Nockamixon in Nockamixon State Park (Bucks County, PA) this morning in hopes of capturing another great sunrise. There wasn’t much structure (clouds) in the sky to add interest and color to the composition so I decided to pull in some of the boats moored in the slips at the marina. I [...]
