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: Surprise!
Today’s post features one of my tiny friends that I often see when photographing on some of Missouri’s prairies … the Jumping Spider. While photographing a clump of wildflowers that were located along the edge of some woods, I caught this little guy as he hunkered down between some leaves, intently watching me: Photographic […]

Today’s post features an image I captured a few years ago, while kayaking the waters at Amarugia Highlands CA, in west-central Missouri. While kayaking there, this Mallard drake popped over the trees and flew overhead, giving me a great view of this colorful duck: Kayaking in Missouri during the spring or fall bird migration can […]

Inclined To Be Kids
Today’s post features a couple of young Mountain Goat kids at the top of Mount Evans (Colorado). Young kids are such a joy to watch and photograph. They gather in groups and run about, jumping from rock to rock and often jumping on each other … and all of this while often precariously perched, or […]

New Parents
Today’s post features a couple of images I captured yesterday at the bluebird nest box that I put up in the outside sanctuary area at my Lake of the Ozarks (Missouri) church. After installing a bluebird box this spring, a pair of Eastern Bluebirds (our state bird) began showing interest in the box. It took […]
Reminiscing!
Today’s post features 3 images I captured a few years ago, above Black Bear Pass in Colorado. Sunsets can be great … some are even unforgettable! While updating my Lightroom catalog, I ran across a few that hold a special place in my heart … enjoy! I’m looking forward to re-tracing my footsteps in this […]

New Church Members
Today’s post features a couple of images I captured with my cell phone camera, over the past couple of weeks at my church at the Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri.

Fun Friday: G-hog Day!
Today’s post features 3 images I captured through my back window, here at my Lake of the Ozarks (Missouri) home. As I worked on a photo studio I am setting up, getting ready for Monarch butterfly photography, I caught some movement out the back window. After seeing the grasses/weeds/wildflowers moving swaying back and forth quite […]
