Due to my recent move to the Lake of the Ozarks, along with the Covid issues, I am currently not teaching group classes. However, I am available for private individual or very small group, in-the-field teaching, where we can safely learn more about our cameras and our photographic techniques..

Fun Friday: Downhill Slalom
Today’s “Fun Friday” post features a Bighorn Sheep ram that was climbing around the slopes of the Badlands, while the rest of the group was grazing on the tall prairie grasses at the bottom.

Today’s post comes from the Lake of the Ozarks (Missouri), a couple of weeks ago. As I worked in the butterfly garden, this curious little chipmunk sat on the seawall and watched me very intently: Fortunately, I had my camera with me (I always try to have it available when outside … you never know […]

Colorful Badlands Sunset
Today’s post features a couple of sunset images as the sun dropped towards the western horizon, over the Badlands NP of South Dakota. I have never seen a “bad” sunset here … ok, if it is really cloudy it might not be good sunset material. But typically, I can always count on some really nice […]
