Sometimes, after talking with people, you develop a new appreciation for a picture. This shot was originally called “Upstream from Robinson Falls.” This rocky forested area is just upstream from Robinson falls, but once a viewer said “You know there are two people kissing in that picture?” I can’t unsee…
On the way home from Pennsylvania on Sunday we stopped by Nelson-Kennedy Ledges State Park to do a little hiking. It’s a neat area that sort of reminds me of Split Rocks at Camp Oty’okwa. The rocks here have much larger stones embedded in the sandstone, so it almost feels…
Mike and I were only able to spend a couple of days up at Lake Erie for the spring migrations this year, and the weather wasn’t great…but the birding still was. I managed to get a couple of pictures that I really like.
The CWAG group went downtown to see the Art exhibit at the Decorative Arts Center. Afterwards I wandered a bit and took pictures. The Umbrellas were a recent addition, but unfortunately a windy storm took many of them down and broke the supports before I could get a picture of…
There’s a little known Nature Preserve just south of where I live called Boch Hollow. I haven’t been there in a while, but I signed up for a program to visit the permit portion of the park. We had a light snowfall the night before and I hadn’t been to…
On December 2nd I participated in the Baltimore Holiday Market at Smeck Farm. Nearing sunset some puffy clouds moved in and the setting sun glinted off of the windmill.
On Wednesday, August 30th, Cathy and I took a road trip to Yellowsprings and visited the Tecumseh Sunflower Field and then stopped by the Glen Helen Nature preserve. There is a lot to see in the Yellowsprings area, and I highly recommend a visit. Clifton Gorge, Clifton Mill, and John…
This weekend I went on a camping trip with the Central Ohio Photographic Society. It was a fun but exhausting weekend. Friday night we shot the Milkyway. It wasn’t very easy to see on the lake, so we ventured to the old school house where we were able to do…
Solar Eclipse. After watching weather, traffic and timing, we finally ended up at Lake Murphysboro State Park near Carbondale, IL. Unfortunately I hadn’t realized that the sun had moved behind the tree branches a bit right as the total solar eclipse occurred. The pictures weren’t what I was hoping for,…
On August 5th I took a hike to Walnut Woods Metro park. It was a nice hike with a friend. The open prairie areas in the Big Pine area were alive with activity. Lots of flowers were in bloom and the insects were enjoying them.
