Gloomy, Gray Day

Leander park bench on a cloudy day in black and white

The last few days have been gloomy, foggy, rainy, and misty around here. I have a few vacation days to take and the weather has really soured my plans to go shoot something. I have always considered a dark, overcast day to be lousy for photography, but I started to consider that perhaps I could… Read More Gloomy, Gray Day

Guadalupe Mountains National Park

Guadalupe Mountains in Texas

Out in West Texas, there is Guadalupe Mountains National Park. After my visit to Monahans Sandhills, I went out to Guadalupe Mountains to hike, shoot photographs, and camp. This area of Texas is mostly desert and very hot in the summer, which is why I visited in late November. I pulled off the highway near… Read More Guadalupe Mountains National Park

It was Thanksgiving and I didn’t really have much time to go out and shoot photos, but I still wanted to write my weekly blog. I did go camping with family on some ranch land that my uncle runs down near Victoria Texas. Like with every ranch there is a stock tank pond and I… Read More Thanksgiving Camping

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

Dark Night at Colorado Bend State Park

Milky Way in the night sky at Colorado Bend State Park

Friday night I went back to one of my favorite places: Colorado Bend State Park in Texas. It is to the West of the Austin area, and well isolated. You can’t even get a cell phone signal out there, which is nice. I have been there before shooting the waterfalls and the night sky. On… Read More Dark Night at Colorado Bend State Park
