Reflections at the Lake

Sunset Reflected in Inks Lake

Sunday afternoon I was off to Inks Lake State Park. I didn’t know what I would find to photograph there, but I wanted to get out and shoot anyway. It was a warm mostly sunny afternoon with a few high clouds and I thought that there was a chance of a nice sunset as well.… Read More Reflections at the Lake

Autumn Color in Austin

Austin at Sunset in Autumn

Austin is not known for its Autumn color display, but there are some colors and I set about trying to capture them on Friday evening. My plan was to shoot from the pedestrian walkway along IH-35 across Lady Bird Lake. I had seen this view while driving the kids to Six Flags in San Antonio… Read More Autumn Color in Austin

Polarizer or No Polarizer

There is a pond in front of the place where I work and there are trees along it that get some fall color. I have been trying to remember to get down there with a camera in front of the pond and get the reflections of the trees in the pond. The trees are a… Read More Polarizer or No Polarizer

Flooding is Good for Waterfall Photos

Central Texas has had a lot of rainfall and flooding lately. One of the results of this rainfall is that the rivers are flowing at much higher rates that normal. North of the town I live in, there is a low water dam on the South San Gabriel river. It typically is little more than… Read More Flooding is Good for Waterfall Photos

Some Fall Color at Inks Lake

Fall foliage at Inks Lake State Park Texas

I had some time Friday afternoon before sunset to take some photos. It had been raining a lot and I wanted to go to Inks Lake to try to take pictures of the waterfall as I thought it might be flowing heavily. When I got there I found that the park was closed because of… Read More Some Fall Color at Inks Lake

Balcones Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge

Not far from my house is a place called Balcones Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge. This place exists mainly to protect the habitat of some endangered songbirds, but it also has several hiking trails. I have lived in Central Texas for more than 15 years and have not been out there, so in mid-December I went.… Read More Balcones Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge

Peacocks and Downtown

Peacock Mayfield Park Austin

My daughter is into photography and so one Saturday we went down to Austin on a photo shoot. It’s always nice when your teenage daughter wants to do something with you. The first place we went was to a park that has peacocks. I have been here before, but I have never been able to… Read More Peacocks and Downtown

Austin at Dawn

On a cold Sunday morning, I got up early and went to downtown Austin to try to get some predawn city skyline photos. It was a relatively clear morning and there was a parking garage that I wanted to try out. I like going to tall parking garages as I can just walk right in… Read More Austin at Dawn

In Search of Fall Color in Austin

Fall colors in Austin Texas reflected in pond

In Central Texas, we don’t really get much of a fall foliage season. Half the trees, like Live Oak and Juniper, don’t even lose their leaves in the Fall. But, I did manage to see a little bit of fall color near where I work in Austin.  So, the next day I planned to bring… Read More In Search of Fall Color in Austin
