Remember the days as a kid spent laying on your back watching the clouds blow by? Those were the days! Not a worry in the world. Just kick back and enjoy the summer. Sometimes I wish I could go back to those days. And then I think again. I like where I am and where [...]

In landscape photography, clouds can be a very big asset. Clouds affect the background area of the image, they affect light quality, and sometimes they can be the entire subject of the image. I love chasing storms in search of the perfect clouds. I have learned to create images with or without them, but my [...]
On one of our trips to Stanley, Idaho, we went up to the Yankee Fork Gold Dredge. On the way back down we stopped here to do some fishing in the rain. The fishing was really slow, so I began looking for photography opportunities. When the clouds broke just a bit, this view opened up. [...]

“It’s cold outside.” “It’s raining and I don’t want to get the camera wet” “I didn’t have time.” The world is filled with excuses. I teach photography to high school students and I hear excuses every day. I am amazed that I hear these same excuses occasionally from “Professional” photographers as well. This is one [...]

A couple of weeks ago I was at a family reunion at Bear Lake in Southeast Idaho. It started out a great day, warm and sunny. A perfect day for the lake. It didn’t take long to change. This thunderstorm rolled over the mountain and within just a few minutes everything turned dark. We could [...]

Like it or not, we’re back! The fishing was good and the photography was great around Stanley, Idaho! We photographed around the Stanley Lake area, Little Redfish Lake and Alturas Lake. I have not had time yet to process out the images, but check back often, as they will be showing up in future entries. [...]
What is it about sunsets that we all enjoy? Each one is so different, not one the same or even similar. I have my own ideas why we all enjoy them so much. Maybe your ideas are different. I would love to hear others views. All day long we view the world in cold, blue [...]

Stormy skies can make for very dramatic photographs. They can also kill the light so that everything is flat and boring. I have learned that in order to get that perfect photograph I must sometimes fail to get any photograph. I play the waiting game quite frequently. In the case when I was out shooting [...]

Of all the days that I have been at Cannon Beach, there has only been one time that there was no haze. It was wonderful. Clear and an approaching storm, I could not have asked for more. Perfect lighting for black and white, which is my favorite medium to work in. I know, with all [...]
