Water Drop Collision

This photograph was purely an experiment with a 180mm macro lens.  I rented the lens with the sole purpose of satisfying my own curiosity because I had never used a macro lens before.   I had previously seen these types of pictures on the internet and decided that I wanted to try my hand at it.  The most…

Man on Fire! Orlando, Florida

This photo is quite different than what you are used to seeing on my website.  It was taken at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida as part of the Lights, Motors, Action! Extreme Stunt Show.  The show is designed to give the audience a behind the scenes look at how an action…

Los Suenos, Costa Rica

My blog is only a week old and my goal is to post a picture a day.  I am finding that I set a very high expectation for myself in just trying to select a photograph from the hundreds that I have taken in each place that I have visited.  This particular photograph was taken…

Sunrise Acadia National Park, Maine

This photograph was taken at Thunder Hole in Acadia National Park, Maine.  When the ocean is at less than a one foot swell, it sounds more like Whisper Hole and not Thunder Hole.  Being from Florida, I did not realize how much quicker the sunrise is in Maine.  After speaking with the owner of the bed and breakfast that…

Canyon de Chelly

This was taken on White House Trail halfway to the White House Ruins.  The beginning elevation for the trailhead was 6000 ft., to get to the point where this picture was taken, was 700 ft. straight down, which I figure because of the zig zag trail, ended up being 1200 ft.  The hike down the…
