Once in a lifetime Alaska Trip
The beauty of this mostly untouched landscape is truly breath taking. We started our trip in Seatle Washington and boarded a cruise ship that would take us to a small fraction of Alaksa. Living on the east coast near the Appalachian Mountains, seeing rolling hills and tall peaks was not foreign but seeing snowcapped mountains…

Bald Eagles and over 500 shots
I don’t know what it is about the Bald Eagle but to see this majestic bird take flight and soar overhead is just breath taking. To capture this flight was a goal of mine. This past Saturday, I had a chance to go out to the Conowingo Damn in Maryland with a new lens and…

More Astrophotography

If your goal is to photograph any…

Ricketts Glen and Waterfalls
If your goal is to see as many waterfalls in one day as possible then Rickett’s Glen will certainly help you with that. A seven mile hike that includes 21 waterfalls is definitely worth the increased trail difficulty. My pictures above have a really cool effect with capturing the motion of the water. This effect…

The Journey Begins!
Although this picture was not the first picture I took with my camera, to be fair my first picture was probably an out of focused image of my living room as I started to explore the new extension of my eyes. The picture of the Milky Way was the reason I started down this road…
