Color on High
Today was without question one of the best photo days I’ve ever had. My buddy, Jay, and I headed north to the Martinsdale Reservoir about 1:30pm with perfect clouds filling the sky and nothing but stunning scenes to behold. It occurred to me at one point that when you live in places congested with countless [...]
The Yellow Skirt
I’ve come to love shots with flat, ambient light, taken just after the ‘glory hour’ of sunset. When working with black and white or duotone images, sometimes a scene is best photographed after the sun is already down. This results in zero shadows and even light across the entire frame, making it ideal for dodging [...]
Paradise Valley Light
I’ve been shooting a lot of images north of Livingston lately, but last evening I decided to head south for a change. I was rewarded with a few really nice captures of ‘last light’ in Paradise Valley. I processed this image fairly dark, but hopefully not so much that it compromises the viewing experience. I [...]

Old Footsteps
This evening I have a little photographic treat. I mentioned in my recent ‘Estab. 1864‘ post that I was going to provide a follow-up on Nevada City, MT, the ‘hodged’ ghost town just a minute’s drive outside of Virginia City…and here it is. It would be worthy of me to point out that Nevada City [...]
The Walkers
With dreams of warmer days, here is another from the archives. Though I do not typically post images of people, I can’t help but snap the shots as they come by. Taken near Priest Lake, ID, today’s image portrays three dear friends of mine while on an evening stroll. This was our last evening together after [...]
Log on Water
Many thanks to everyone for making my launch day a successful one. I sent out an e-mail to friends and relatives and got some great feedback - it is all much appreciated. But because I’ve been a bit busy lately with the new blog, I haven’t been able to get out and photograph [...]
