First Photos of the Year
It’s another one of those “First Photo of the Year” post. The last few years I had hoped to get out often, but never materialized. No promises this year as I’m waiting for to be scheduled for another surgery. I almost decided on staying home because the weather said overcast overnight, but clearing in the […]

First Time, First Light
It only took me two months this year to get myself out to the local refuge. Saw that the waning crescent moon, Mars, Jupiter and possibly Saturn will be visible in the early morning sky, figured why not. They were spaced further apart than I’d like to see, so while I took a picture, they […]

The Setting Full Moon at the Wetlands
For about a year now , I’ve been getting up early, way before sunrise, to walk around our neighborhood. I usually walk 4 mile, Monday through Friday. Every day after a Full Moon I think, “Wish I brought my camera”. Problem with that is, camera and lens is heavy and mostly, there isn’t a good […]

Long Time
As the Boston songs says, “It’s Been Such A Long Time”. This morning I decided to take a drive to the local refuge instead of my morning walk. The day before we had a nice sunrise, so I figured maybe I’d see another. Not so this time. Had fog, which is a good thing for […]

Strawberry Moon Two Days Later

Fall Colors at Convict Lake 2017
One of my favorite fall colors location has to be Convict Lake. Drove the 4 hour trip to capture the first light. Got there around 5am and tried to find a different location other than the bridge. Since I’m not to stable trying to walk on rocks, and in the dark, I decided on the […]

First Fall Colors of 2017
Okay, this technically is NOT the first picture of my recent fall color trip on Thursday. It was the first photo that I processed and posted here. I got up at midnight Thursday morning and left the house around 1am for Convict Lake. After shooting sunrise I headed over to the June Lake Loop where […]

Mount Watkins
Took the family to do some stargazing. Before we headed up to Glacier Point I stopped at Mirror Lake. Ten years ago we spent the afternoon playing in the water and took a few pics. One of the pictures I took was with the kids on top of a rock. Once I did that I […]
