“Wonderful” Gallery Show
Wednesday, June 15th, 2022
This photo, which I recently shot on the coast of Maine, has been chosen for a gallery show at the LightBox Photo Gallery in Astoria, Oregon. The model is the amazing Rachel. Rachel modeled for me 20 years ago at this same location. That was when I had a eureka moment and realized that the […]
Dogwood
Friday, June 10th, 2022
More flowers. The late-blooming Dogwood in front of our house is in full bloom now. So, I couldn’t resist pointing the new Nikon Z7II at it for a few snaps.
Wildflowers
Sunday, June 5th, 2022
I’ve stopped mowing a part of our too-large lawn and planted trees and wildflowers. This is the first year that the wildflowers are showing up. So I took the new Nikon Z7II out and did a few flower photos. I’t’s been said that there is no reason for anyone to ever take another photo of […]

It’s Memorial Day in the U.S. So we went to the local cemetery this afternoon and I took a few photos. So many flags…

That’s a portrait of me by Mike Johnston. Mike took it when I stopped to visit him earlier this week when I was driving back from a few days of photographing on the Maine coast. Mike did a blog post about our visit on his very popular blog, The Online Photographer. If you are a […]
New Lens
Wednesday, May 11th, 2022
I told you about my new camera, a Nikon Z7ii. I’ve had it a while, but I didn’t have a Z-mount lens because the one I wanted was on back order…for months. Well, the lens arrived yesterday. It’s a Nikkor Z 24-120 f/4. I’m not planning to buy a bunch of lenses for this camera […]
New Camera
Friday, May 6th, 2022
I’m not much of an equipment nut. I just want the right tool for the job at hand. And I’ve been, and still am, very happy with my micro 4/3 kit. But I’m getting ready for major documentary project that I hope to start this summer. And I felt that I wanted higher resolution files […]

French PHOTO Finally Arrives
Saturday, March 5th, 2022
Thanks to a friend of my friend, Dave Rudin, I finally have copies of the Jan-Feb issue of French PHOTO magazine. The friend, who lives in France, had to mail the copies to both Rudin (who also has a winning photo in this issue) and myself. It appears the magazine is no longer distributed in […]
Alligator Farm
Sunday, February 27th, 2022
A few more snaps from Florida where I’m enjoying not experiencing February in Ohio. These are from the Alligator Farm in St. Augustine. It’s really a very nice zoo. They have an excellent lemur exhibit. Lots of birds as well.
