Week 31 I found myself at a go to spot for sunsets and there was definitely no let down. The clouds were amazing the sky was perfect and the sun was ready to through some beautiful color my way. It is so easy to find myself getting lost in these moments.
While visiting my sister for a family event I finally decided to shoot this old barn out in the cow pasture. Tears ago I had shot this and it was not a favorite of mine, so I decided to take a second bite at this apple. I am much happier with these results.
An old railway bridge headed across the Muskingum River in Marietta, OH. This is a favorite bridge of mine to photograph. Almost every angle can create a stunning image.
I feel like a constant in my photography is a plan that goes sideways yet still works out. I did an astrophotography workshop. I wanted to get better at shooting the night sky. So We did some classroom talking and then headed out into the world to test our new skills. We arrived at Concho…

Still struggling with Covid after effects I had trouble getting out and about this week. I did have the opportunity to work with my 15 year old niece on shooting the strawberry moon. Last summer I had given her an old camera and a few lenses I used to use for time lapse photography. I…
