Hiking with Bison

On Monday morning I awoke in my frozen tent about half an hour before sunrise. I climbed out from under my pile of blankets, put on my coat, gloves, hat, boots; grabbed my camera backpack and headed up the South Prong Trail. I wasn’t sure what I was going to find, there were no clouds… Read More Hiking with Bison

Mary Had a Rock

My Monday morning at Shenandoah was cloudy and there wasn’t much chance of the sun getting through the clouds as it rose, so I don’t have any photos worth sharing of that. But I did meet my brother and his kids for a hike up to Mary’s Rock. This hike is out-and-back from Thorton Gap… Read More Mary Had a Rock

Hikes to Waterfalls

As mentioned in my previous post, I recently went on a trip to Shenandoah National Park for hiking and some fall color. On the Sunday of my trip, I planned hikes to go see some waterfalls. There are trails around the Big Meadows area that lead to waterfalls, so I planned to start here. My… Read More Hikes to Waterfalls

Shenandoah

I went to Shenandoah National Park. I planned this for late October to coincide with the leaves turning to autumn colors as this is a sight that I do not see often living in central Texas. The park is in the Appalachian Mountains of Virginia and has hundreds of miles of hiking trails, including the… Read More Shenandoah

The Missing Armadillos

My blogging friend Carolyn is in town and I took her and her family on a hike to find armadillos. Not sure why she wants an armadillo, but I try not to pry into other people’s business too much. I do know a few good places to find armadillos that aren’t dead on the side… Read More The Missing Armadillos

Pedernales Falls State Park

You may remember from my last post that I went to Pedernales Falls State Park with my daughter. Well, I went back Saturday alone as I wanted to do a lot of hiking, including going up to the river overlook to see what it looked like around sunset. Pedernales Falls State Park is west of… Read More Pedernales Falls State Park

Hanging Out at the River

I had only been to Pedernales Falls State Park once before and didn’t spend a lot of time there. My daughter had been telling me that she wanted to go hiking with me, so on Sunday afternoon we stopped by the park, which is to the southwest of Austin. This summer we got a lot… Read More Hanging Out at the River

A Little Less Heat

September is here and while it is still summer, the brutality of July and August are past and I have started to feel the urge to come out of the shade and shoot some photos. I don’t mind the heat so much, but the heat we had in July and early August made it kind… Read More A Little Less Heat

Dry Summer at the Wildlife Refuge

Late Saturday afternoon it was time for another hot mid-August hike. I headed out for the Balcones Canyonland Wildlife Refuge with my full camera backpack hoping that something would inspire me to shoot it. It has been one of the hottest summers on record and we have had very little rain this year, so the… Read More Dry Summer at the Wildlife Refuge

Struggling to Find a Subject

It’s summer, the sky is mostly clear, it is really hot out, and I am struggling to find subjects to go photograph. I still go out hiking in the heat of the late afternoon even though it is hot and try to find something to shoot, but I struggle to find anything that I feel… Read More Struggling to Find a Subject
