Have to admit, that after completing my recent Project 365, I’ve been having this feeling everyday that I’m supposed to be taking a picture. Seems a year of taking a daily capture is now ingrained into my spirit and I seem a bit lost knowing that I don’t […]
On Martin Luther King Day, I woke up at 4:00am for a drive out to the beach. Wanting to arrive for dawn, I shot the beach the lazy way. Handheld and high ISO’s. I then quickly changed my lens to the beast – the 500mm L, in hopes […]
It’s hard to believe that I’ve managed to complete my photography Project 365. It has been an incredible journey in so many ways. Not only did it make me get out daily and think about capturing something special, it also opened up doors for creativity. Many new friends […]

The Potomac River gorge dates about 600 million years old. In more the more recent 5 million years, water has traveled through cracks in the rock in a Mather Gorge formation, creating a small canyon with the Potomac river. Beautiful rocks, filled with quartz and mica encompass the […]
Today was a perfect Indian Summer day, with the autumn leaves still coloring the landscape. With a warmer day, a trip up to Conowingo Dam was due with a friend. It is her birthday week and part of the outing was to begin with the Bald Eagles that […]
