Well, I went and did it again. I just had to go and revisit a beautiful place because it was so special this season. After my photography class at Longwood, I wanted to return and capture some images that I saw while helping others. It’s one of those […]
To say that Autumn was short and sweet here is an understatement. This is the first year in the past six or seven years that I didn’t head out to Shenandoah National Park to hike Old Rag Mountain with my good friends in the hiking club. I was […]
There’s been a change of scenery for me. Heading to a small island off the coast of South Carolina that I never would have known about. A good friend of mine is having her wedding, and when I heard it was on the beach, there was no way […]
It is a sunny day today. In fact thousands and thousands of sunny faces greeted me in the morning. I had heard that the sunflower fields in Jarrettsville, Maryland were in full bloom this week. I had passed by the empty fields several months ago and the fields […]

An early morning rise after the first night on the Eclipse Cruise ship. My friend and I were able to obtain single cabins that are tucked in the front of the bow of the ship for a nominal additional fee. It was wonderful to have a room to […]
It’s been a busy few days getting ready for my exotic trip to the Galapagos Islands. This trip has been planned since last summer, and has given me plenty of time to plan ahead on what type of camera equipment to take, and how to carry it with […]
The past few weeks there have been some rare Red Necked Grebes hanging out in the Magothy River by my house. This winter has been so cold and harsh, that the great lakes froze over nearly 95%. Leaving little habitat for these grebes to winter. These Red Necked […]
Well, I went and did it. I created a huge mess. I was so excited yesterday about discovering the WD My Cloudsystem. I was willing to do whatever it took to upload the files, even if it took overnight to do it. But it didn’t work, didn’t […]
