It snowed this week! Granted, it was only for a day and none of it stuck. But it happened! That wasn’t exactly on my bingo list for fall 2024, considering all the strangely warm days we’ve had. But that snow seemed to herald a new wave of cold weather, with temperatures more reminiscent of past…
I don’t know how I missed this, but now I have a collection of nature photos! Easily one of my favorite genres, nature photography is so relaxing. For the majority of it, I can work as slow as I like; there’s no rush to be anywhere unless I’m capturing wildlife or racing to see the…
I was catching up with a friend this weekend and snapped this photo of him while we walked through a park (at 6pm!!). And to me, it captures the feeling of the onset of winter. A lone subject is surrounded by darkness in an empty space, and it evokes a longing for summer when this…
This weekend was full of surprises. My plans were all sorted out, I thought: I’d walk the trail that follows the lake shore and capture images of the auburn trees and other flora. Perhaps I would set up my camera and take a few environmental self-portraits. I expected to be out there for a few…
This is a throwback to the first autumn I experienced while owning a camera, four years ago. It’s one of the first nature images I took that I was quite proud of: the singular red leaf sitting atop its like against a fallen tree trunk. It feels like it saw me coming and posed for…
I visited another state park this weekend – once for work, and once for pleasure. I got to explore the place from the perspective of a portrait photographer, and I didn’t realize how drastically that would influence how my eyes see the water, the trails, and the historic sites.Ultimately, it was just fun to explore…
I visited Spring Mill State Park last weekend with my brother and his family! For such a dense park, I’m surprised I had only heard of it earlier this year. Every time I asked someone about it, they mentioned a new feature of the place. “There are beautiful trails there!” One said. Another mentioned that…
I went on a brief walk yesterday on a grassy path. A few trees shaded the way, and I captured one of the particularly interesting ones as the sun poked through.Some photographers swear that color in an image only distracts from the focus, and while I heartily disagree with the notion, I wanted to give…
I’m behind on the publication, but here are photos I took when I visited GenCon in Indianapolis back in August. I went with two friends I’ve known since high school, which made the trip all the cooler. I got to see such a wide range of people, games, cultures, and experiences, all brought together around…
I went to an Oktoberfest celebration near Indianapolis this weekend! A friend invited me to a brewery that closes down once a year to have a big shindig in their building with all the fun Bavarian festivities. There was a best-dressed contest, a stein mug holding contest (pictured), and plenty of pretzels and beer to…
