Week 13 of 52
Such a cold dreary week. I went to Marietta, OH to brave the cold and make a few images. I always like to find water for my images so I walked the bike trail along the Ohio River. I had walked and ridden this trail many times, but for some reason I saw a few…
Week 12 of 52
This image was many hours in the making…kind of. I was making the trek back home and chose the scenic route as I often do. The issue with me and scenic routes is that it will turn a 4 hour drive into an 8 hour or longer excursion. On this particular trip I found many…

I was so blessed to catch this magnificent sunset. The sun was close to setting when I got to this location and was lucky to get set up and make a great image in time. This was taken in Parkersburg, WV at Quincy Park. Each weeks image can be viewed here Feel free to comment on or…
Week 10 of 52
Temperatures in the 70’s got me feeling ready for an adventure. Saturday I took a trip into Raleigh County, WV in search of a waterfall. I took a nice hike along the Glade Creek Trail. The scenery was perfect. Stopped to rest at a nice place along the creek and just listened to the water…
Week 9 of 52
This weekend I traveled to Helvetia, WV to join in on the celebration of Fasnacht. I honestly spent more time enjoying the festivities than I spent capturing them. The celebration is all about burning old man winter an effigy, and I am totally down with that. There is a rich history to this small Swiss…
Week 8 of 52
I ended up in Devola, OH looking for an image. There was no plan, there was no location in mind. I pointed my truck west and crossed a river and aimlessly explored some areas and nothing felt right. Some days I am just looking for something different and I was not finding it. Then suddenly…
Week 7 of 52
This weeks lesson is back up plans. It was a decent day out and everyone decided to enjoy it. My 1st two choices were very crowded so I picked a 3rd on the fly. I found this lone picnic bench at a small park by a damn on the Ohio River. Maybe not the most…
Week 6 of 52
We have crossed into February. This week I found myself back at Fort Boreman Park. I do want to keep variety and do not plan on shooting the same locations often, but sometimes other things come into play. This image is a completely different however, so I will judge it acceptable. The snow covered overlook…
Week 5 of 52
January is always a hectic month for me work wise. With crappy weather, a busy schedule, and ohh yeah a boot because I broke a bone in my foot getting out to shoot is getting tricky. This weeks shot comes from the golf course two blocks from my house. There was not anything spectacular, so…
Week 4 of 52
Week four is winter wonderland week. We had our 1st significant snow of the year. I went over to a little wildlife refuge very close to my home and just walked some paths and found some nice winter images. Ironically a couple hours in the snow and my favorite image was the 1st I shot….
