Greetings everyone! I’ve been working on a couple of big posts lately and been out shooting nearly every free minute, so I’ve fallen a week behind. That said, I’m going to share a few of my latest images of West Tiger Mountain (which is about twenty minutes from my house) with you here. I’ve got [ Read More ]
I’ve passed the nine-month mark as a Washington resident, and I thought it was time for me to plant my flag and give myself the hesitant yet inevitable title as a Washington nature photographer. Seems so strange after all those years of being known as “that crazy Floridian guy wading out all alone in the [ Read More ]
Sometimes a photograph speaks more than words. Photographed this young red fox on Mount Rainier a few days ago. I was completely fascinated by the golden ring of fur encircling its face, and the dark hairs around the eyes and neck plus the rich color of the evergreens behind it created perfect contrast to make [ Read More ]
Spring has arrived in Washington, and not a minute is wasted when the skies are clear and it’s not raining. Since yesterday was such a beautiful Easter morning and deciding to mix a workday with a family day, I took my wife and kids up to check out Rattlesnake Mountain and get some more images [ Read More ]
The other night I was shooting for a corporate business event in downtown Seattle. As you can guess, it was raining the entire time, but it didn’t matter too much because the event was indoors. Afterward I was leaving the event and weaving my way through downtown traffic, three things happened: the rain stopped and the [ Read More ]
Cold and rainy Seattle Monday evening tonight – perfect for an outdoor portrait session? Yes! This is Jessica’s shoot. Because we planned an outdoor portrait session, the rain literally put a damper on our plans, but we persevered and under the cover of the pavilion at Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park in Renton, Washington we were able to make it happen. Many thanks to [ Read More ]
This morning started off with snow and by noon, the snow had melted and the sun was out resulting in a beautiful bright, cheery day at just above freezing: my kind of weather, and stuck in my office was the last place I wanted to be. So I grabbed a camera and a zoom lens [ Read More ]
A few hours ago, we just got our power restored after 58 hours of non-preparedness and freezing in our home. Being relatively still new to Washington from Florida, we were absolutely not prepared for an extended power outage, which was cause by a massive Ice storm that left over 400,000 people without power in the [ Read More ]
So often as is the case, I am en route to my photography location du jour which my inner nerd has neatly located, diagrammed, planned, and studied when movement out of the corner of my eye puts a snag in my orderly system. I was climbing into the Cascades Mountains when this big and beautiful [ Read More ]
As I was driving alone cross-country this past June I had some incredible experiences. I accidentally drove a fully loaded moving truck with car and trailer in tow through an agricultural field at 4am in the middle of Arkansas – at full speed. I had a full-grown buffalo run at me full-tilt while keeping a [ Read More ]
