Hi everyone, I just recently completed a set of images of the Air Force Memorial in Fall and Winter 2013. I hope I can create a few more winter shots before the season’s end! Also, you can pick up an Air Force Memorial Calendar from the Air Force Association. In it, you’ll find several of […]

Early in November, I set out to the U.S. Capitol to recreate a shot that has been a popular print for me: a panorama of the U.S. Capitol with peak fall foliage under gray, rainy skies. I really love the contrast of grays and fall foliage and can appreciate why this shot has been popular. […]

As another year came to close, I thought about how long it really has been since I have been working at photography. I started in 2006, and was mostly playing for a few years. I started my website in December 2008 (5 years!) and my blog in June 2010, but it wasn’t until a cold […]

On Thanksgiving, my family has a tradition to go around the table and mention what we are thankful for. Overall, I am always thankful for the same thing: health of those who are dear to us. Health is the number one requirement from which all other good fortunes come. I am thankful for every breath […]

Tonight, I went to the U.S. Capitol to recreate a rather popular print of mine. I was never fully satisfied with it, and wanted to improve the end product. While I think I was successful in capturing the image I wanted, I also had to capture what turned out to be one of the best […]

This past Saturday morning, I led a workshop at Great Falls National Park. We are just hitting peak fall foliage in the Washington, D.C. Area, and wanted to capture this beautiful time on camera. We were treated to a beautiful sunrise. I scaled down some rocks (being very careful while doing so) to capture the […]

Following up on Part 2 from my trip to the Eastern Sierras, my next destination was the Lundy Canyon and Lake Tahoe. Not a whole lot of time to write about what adventures I had since I’m boarding a plane to ITALY in a few hours! Needless to say, after a few days of hiking […]

Following up on Part 1 from my trip to the Eastern Sierras, my next destination was the White Mountains. The White Mountains are a few miles away from Bishop, California. A desert mountain, the area looks like a gray, barren wasteland, with occasional shrubs and nearly no wildlife except for beetles, marmots, and small birds. […]

Tonight, I hosted another Introduction to Landscape and Nature Photography class in Washington, D.C. This time, at the newly lit Washington Monument. The weather was perfect — mid 70s and high clouds. Everything looked perfect for a brilliant sunset. As the sun dipped below the horizon, the color stayed a muted blue. Right when I […]

As I continue to process the images from my Eastern Sierra trip, I wanted to leave you with some other work I have been developing for the past several months. For the past few months, you may have noticed that I have shot and posted many images of the Air Force Memorial, in Arlington, VA. […]

Earlier this month, I went on a 4 day lightning tour of the Eastern Sierras, including Mono Lake, the White Mountains, and some small sights in between. As an East Coast city guy, it is always a fantastic and memorable experience to travel out west. Dramatic geologic events of the past still show their mark […]

Dramatic weather can produce dramatic photography! Over the past few days, we have had some intense weather here in Washington, D.C. Everything from black clouds, huge winds, tornados, and deluges. In many cases, these situations are disasterous to photograph. Water and electronics DO NOT mix! But in certain situations, bad weather can create unique photographic […]

Yesterday, I went scouting at the U.S. Capitol for some shots I plan to take this spring. I was looking for some blooming flowers and after a while of searching, found none. One of the fundamentals of successful photography (in my opinion and that I teach during my workshops), is to come with a plan, […]
