Reflections at the Lake

Sunday was a beautiful late summer day here in central Texas – the kind we often get in the middle of winter. The sky was spotless and there was very little wind, so I headed to Inks lake for some hiking and maybe some wildlife. Sundays the lake is generally full of people, so I… Read More Reflections at the Lake

Fiery Sky Over Inks Lake

The main point of this post is a beautiful sunset over Inks lake, but before the sun set there was some really nice golden light. I stood by the lake taking photos of a bunch of ducks that refused to swim in the right direction and then a big heron swooped in an landed on… Read More Fiery Sky Over Inks Lake

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

Shooting In To The Sun

Sometimes I shoot directly into the sun for an image. This makes it very difficult to get an image that exposes the sun, sky, and landscape without clipping highlights and shadows. It is also very hard to avoid lens flare, but the best answer to that is a high-quality lens. In the image below, I… Read More Shooting In To The Sun

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

Camping and Kayaking on Padre Island

I have long wanted to go kayaking around one of the bays between the barrier islands and the Texas mainland. I have thought about planning a trip down to the coast for this multiple times and last weekend I just did it. I went to Padre Island National Seashore which is just south of Corpus… Read More Camping and Kayaking on Padre Island

The Sun Sets Somewhere

Sunday afternoon and time for a hike. I headed to Inks Lake State Park this week as the weather was nice and I wanted to walk those trails again. Either my memory is wrong or they have added a hiking loop. I had hiked the trails across the main road before, but then they had… Read More The Sun Sets Somewhere

Took a Hike; Stayed for Sunset

I went for a nice hike on a cool Sunday afternoon at Balcones Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge – Warbler Vista. I hung around an overlook to watch the sunset and then hiked back to my car in the dark. Not much else to say. Hope you enjoy the photos.

Well, At Least I Had A Nice Hike

Trying not to waste my vacation days that I am using up at the end of the year, I went hiking out at Colorado Bend State Park (Texas) on Wednesday. There were some trails out there that I had not been on and I also had an idea about sunset. The park was actually quite… Read More Well, At Least I Had A Nice Hike

Enchanted Rock Reflected

Enchanted Rock is an outdoor attraction in central Texas with a state park built around it. Even though it is quite isolated out in the hill country, it is a very busy park and you should probably get reservations online a few days in advance if you want to go experience it as they limit… Read More Enchanted Rock Reflected
