After hiking around Inks Lake State Park on a stormy day, I was about to head home when I decided to stop at a part of the lake shore that faces west and have a last look. The sun began dropping out of the sky just over the horizon, so I set up for some… Read More Stormy Day – Great Sunset
While some parts are having record heat waves, we seem to be off to a very rainy summer here. Mind you, I’m not complaining about the rain as my yard looks like a country club golf course right now. It was a stormy Monday afternoon and I went to Inks Lake. I was kind of… Read More Storm Clouds and the 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
Sunday afternoon I had to get out of the house. I didn’t think that there would be much to shoot around town judging by the mostly dry pond last week, so I just drove out to Inks Lake in the late afternoon. The sky was mostly clear and summer has not quite let go its… Read More Twilight Fishing Pier
I was going to start this by telling you a story about how I got off work on Friday, went home and grabbed my camera gear, and headed out excited to go shoot some photos. I drove out to Inks Lake State Park, which is about 45 minutes drive for me. I had a place… Read More Inks Lake with only an iPhone

I have been waiting for a decent day to go back out to Inks Lake and try shooting the little waterfall. There is a stream that travels over a lot of rocks getting down to the lake. When it hasn’t rained for a while, it can get down to a trickle, but we have had… Read More Sunday Afternoon at Inks Lake
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
On Monday the completely overcast skies in the morning transitioned to partly cloudy by the late afternoon and I was eager to shoot something, so I headed to the lake to try to get some sunset reflections. I have been here before, but had been thinking of another vantage point to shoot from. I got… Read More Dusk at the Lake
I had been thinking of the moon on the horizon reflected across Inks Lake but most of the vantage points that are accessible in the park point West which would eliminate the possibility of a full moon rising over the lake in the evening. The property on the west side of the lake is all… Read More Moonset
