Stump

Weathered stump and wild flowers rest in front of this morning vista of Long mountain.

Foggy Travels

A soft foggy morning taken in the Bald Eagle area. A Romantic period style landscape that is meant to be viewed both very close and far away. Pick out the farm and cows next to the river slightly peeking out from the trees then step back and imagine where the train tracks might take you.

Soft lit morning stream

Stream mist diffuses the morning light and relaxes the scene.

Nymph Lake

Clouds dot the morning sky and the waters are still. The light of the rising sun spills over the mountain peaks

Above and Below

A full moon sets behind the clouds on this starry night and softly lights the area. Lily pads are illuminated with special lights carefully placed. Part of an ongoing series

Other Worlds

An imaginative looking scene, taken at a local lake. The lily pads glow with lights placed in the lake and the Milky Way is predominate in the sky on this cloudless night. Part of an ongoing series

Magic waterfall

Earth, water, air and fire. This enchanting waterfall is part of the Blue knob area. Taken in the start of spring during a light rain that give off scents of pine and moss. Candles were carefully positioned around the waterfall. Each candle gives special illumination to the rocks and helps carry the viewer throughout the scene. Part of an ongoing series

Fire and Water

One of my most technical works, multiple exposure elements captured with physically covering the lens in precise timings to get the correct exposure all in a single shot. All while being directly under the water falling off the cave. The idea came to capture the four elements from the volcano eruption in Hawaii. I immediately set out with candles to capture this magical effect. Part of an ongoing series

All is quiet

Still water a night with canoes lined up on the shore. The concentration of light gives a peephole effect and slight abstraction. 1 of 2 part series looking at silent isolation
