Bluebonnets of Big Bend

In the autumn Texans look with envy upon the New England and Rocky Mountain states with their beautiful fall foliage, but in spring we get even with wildflower season. Wildflower season is in full swing in Texas right now and I took a few photos of bluebonnets while my daughter and I were out in… Read More Bluebonnets of Big Bend

Freezing Sunrise

It was a freezing Thursday morning and I was awake early. I checked the clouds outside my back window and from what I could tell there were high clouds which meant a chance at a nice sunrise. So, I gathered up my gear and headed out to Balcones Canyonlands for some photos. As I was… Read More Freezing Sunrise

A Foggy Morning in the Park

It was a damp and foggy morning. We don’t really get a lot of foggy mornings around here and I have kind of been waiting on one to practice shooting in. The fog can hide what’s in the distance in a photo and leave a little mystery for the viewer or it can simplify a… Read More A Foggy Morning in the Park

What to do in January

The first couple of weeks of this year I have barely picked up my camera. I have been busy reorganizing my house as I now have my own office, which I am happy about but it has been a lot of work. We also had a rare (once in a decade) snow storm with a… Read More What to do in January

Sunday Morning Hike at Balcones Canyonlands

I went hiking this morning out at Balcones Canyonlands Doeskin Ranch area. It was kind of one more free morning to go hiking before I go back to working tomorrow. There were quite a few people out there hiking and enjoying the morning, including one relentless trail-runner that must have been in amazing shape as… Read More Sunday Morning Hike at Balcones Canyonlands

Big Bend Ranch State Park – Hoodoos

After Big Bend National Park, we went to check out Big Bend Ranch State Park. I had never been to this state park and I was eager to see this scenic area of the border. After stopping at the park visitor center, we headed down FM170 also known as the Texas Mountain Trail. Our first… Read More Big Bend Ranch State Park – Hoodoos

On the way back from Santa Elena canyon, I took the scenic route which is called Ross Maxwell Scenic Drive. I knew that there were a few overlooks along this road that would be good for some pictures. In the image below, the yellow highlighted route shows the more scenic highway through the park that… Read More Big Bend – Desert Mountains

Big Bend – Santa Elena Canyon Sunrise

Saturday morning well before dawn, the workshop group was off to Santa Elena Canyon in the dark to get there in time for sunrise photos. To get there we took the Old Maverick Road from the west entrance gate. This is yet another rough unpaved and dusty road which I didn’t enjoy driving in the… Read More Big Bend – Santa Elena Canyon Sunrise
