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..

Head in the Clouds
Today’s post features some morning landscape photos I captured in Glacier National Park (Montana) a few years ago. Made me “homesick” for the mountains as I prepared this blog post! In early morning, at high altitude on the Going-to-the-Sun Road, the landscape can often be quite dramatic: Once the sun is up and the […]

Fun Friday: Can U C Me Now?
The image from today’s post comes from a visit I had a few years ago to the Venice bird rookery, in Venice, Florida.

Framed in Red
Today’s post features a pair of nesting Great Egrets, in brilliant breeding plumage, that I captured a few years ago at the Venice Rookery, in Venice, Florida. The red-berried plant is a Brazilian Pepper. Although quite photogenic, it’s roots are many and can extend for long distances to drink up water, making it an unwanted, […]

Florida’s Swamp Bird
Today’s post features a couple of images I captured a few years ago in the Everglades National Park (Florida). The Anhinga is a fun bird to watch as it “snakes” through the swamp waters, to find/catch fish. The adult male, as shown in these two photos, are especially colorful in their breeding plumage … I […]

Seeing Double Vision
Today’s post features a couple of images I captured a few years ago as I photographed early morning bird activity along the Myakka River (in Myakka River State Park, Florida). When the waters are calm, there can be some rather nice reflections in the river. Black-crowned Night Heron: Great Egret: Photographic Equipment Used: Canon […]

Blurred Vision
Today’s post features a Wood Stork as it prepares to land in some lush, green vegetation along the Myakka River (Myakka River State Park, Florida) when I visited there a few years ago. I normally don’t like to even attempt “image blurs”, as they are not my thing. However, the low, early morning light made […]

Duck, Duck, Goose, …
… Deer? Today’s post features an interesting shot I captured while photographing migrating Whooping Cranes at Quivira NWR, in central Kansas a few years ago. While driving around the refuge, I came upon a bunch of ducks and geese, with a White-tailed deer buck following a doe through the refuge waters. Being late fall, the […]

Surrounded by Ears
Today’s post features an image I captured a few days ago on our boat dock at the Lake of the Ozarks (Missouri). We have several potted plants on the dock, including a couple of very large pots of Elephant Ears. We’ve been planting these bulbs for a couple of years, but this year yielded a […]

This Mallard hen allowed us to watch as her family grew up: Photographic Equipment Used: Canon 7D body Canon 100-400mm f/4.5 – f/5.6 IS lens Handheld, with IS […]
