Balancing Ibis

This photo of an Ibis was taken from a kayak last fall in Florida. Sure wish I were down there again for the spring breeding and nesting season.

Spring Fling

It was a mild and sunny day so off to the lakeshore we went. The camera and me that is. It was too bright and there were no great clouds, but it was good to get out.

Light Painting Guitars

A friend is really into collecting guitars and he and I worked on photographing some of them. Using only a penlight for light. There are a few other images which are still a work in progress.

Here is another from the Vasa Ski Race. A happy winner.

Snow Fun

Big city folks in the northeast should learn to enjoy the snow they've gotten this year. At least in places like Northern Michigan there are winter sports. Case in point, the Vasa Ski Race held every February in Traverse City, Michigan. Th
is year was perfect, except for those who do not like fresh snow and temperatures in the 20's. Here are some of the photos from the race.

Two Cover Photos

In February, two of my photos have appeared on covers of publications. The first was a photo taken of the tall ships at the Schooner Festival in Traverse City and appeared on the cover of the Traverse Community Directory http://www.pdspages.com/ . The second image was a photo that I took of a group of showy lady slippers which appeared on the cover of Michigan Blue Magazine . Kind of nice getting the exposure - no pun intended.
