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 […]
Remembering

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…
Blog Post About A Blog Post
Friday, May 27th, 2022
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.
Finding Eden
Tuesday, February 8th, 2022
Well, actually, Eden found me. And it opened the door to a wonderful creative relationship. We had actually met many years ago when she first started modeling. We did a shoot and then nothing happened. Turns out she had decided not to continue modeling at that time. Fortunately, she changed her mind and decided to […]
