Badland Sunrise

I found an overlook in Theodore Roosevelt National Park that faced almost directly toward the sunrise and I arranged to be there a little before 5:00AM the next day to see it. I have no problem waking myself up for stuff like this as I get kind of excited and usually wake up before my… Read More Badland Sunrise

The Balanced Rock

I have been planning another trip to Big Bend National Park as there are photographic ideas that I want to try and hiking trails that I haven’t been on yet. So last weekend my oldest daughter and I went and camped a couple of nights and I tried to get some of these things done.… Read More The Balanced Rock

Wildflower Pasture

There is a pasture along a highway that I pass sometimes. This pasture is full of wildflowers right now and I have stopped to photograph it more than once, but I don’t think I have gotten it right. Below is the pasture with the sun setting in the distance. An hour before sunset, there were… Read More Wildflower Pasture

Mule Ears and Sunset

Sunset from Sotol Vista in Big Bend

On Saturday I did a little hiking on the Mule Ears trail in Big Bend National Park. I had never been on this trail before, but it seemed interesting. It is basically a hilly hike through the desert in the general vicinity of the Mule Ears, which is a jagged cliff that I suppose looks… Read More Mule Ears and Sunset

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

Stone Gazebo at Sunset

There is a stone gazebo at an overlook at Bastrop State Park and I hurried to try to get there at sunset one evening and arrived just as the sun was hitting the horizon. I noticed that I could get the sun to be right through the openings in the gazebo and tried shooting that.… Read More Stone Gazebo at Sunset

Sunset by the River

I went out to a park to hike and perhaps catch some photos of fall color reflected in the river. Unfortunately there is not a lot of fall color to catch around here and there is barely any water in the river to reflect any of it. But I did get a nice hike and… Read More Sunset by the River

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

Big Bend – Ernst Tinaja and the Boquilla Overlook

Ernst Tinaja After the Rio Grande overlook, our next location was Ernst Tinaja. Tinaja meaning a pocket in the rock formed by water; I don’t know who Ernst was. To get to the the parking area for this little hike we had to drive part of the way up the Old Ore Road, which might… Read More Big Bend – Ernst Tinaja and the Boquilla Overlook

Big Bend – Rio Grande Overlook

Friday morning it was off to the Rio Grande overlook for sunrise. This is down near the Rio Grande as you might have guessed and has the Sierra Del Carmen mountains in the distance for the sun to rise above. In the portion of the park map below, the blue arrow indicated where we were… Read More Big Bend – Rio Grande Overlook
