Photography is magic

Photography freezes a moment in time, a moment that will never happen again in that exact way. Without it, those moments will eventually be forgotten. With it, we can always remember being backstage with Johnny Cash, the smile of a newborn baby, that time the cat knocked everything off the counter, or the exact way the light struck the George Washington Bridge, even if we weren’t there when it happened. That moment has been captured forever and can be shared with everyone.

If that’s not magic, I don’t know what is.

I don't think I'm ever going to become an expert in astrophotography or anything like that, but it's damn fun to try sometimes. The funny thing is, I never got to see this location in daylight, so this was shot completely blind. I knew the Milky Wa
Very proud to learn that this red fox photo that I took earlier this year at Sandy Hook has won second place in the Trailside Nature and Science Center photo contest and will be featured in their 2025 calendar! They are hosting the Wild Earth Fest t
I recently began a one-on-one mentorship with a very well respected bird photographer. Yesterday, we did a review of some of my existing images. It's very humbling to have someone you respect look over your work, at images you really like and are p
Obviously, everyone is going to be flooding social media with their images of the eclipse. I've got a bunch more to go through, but I wanted to get this (quickly edited) image up while it's still relevant. I have to say, totality was quite an exper
I normally wouldn't post something like this, because I'm not sure I'm done with this edit, but I am so mesmerized by it and I'm curious for opinions on what everyone thinks of it. This was taken during Night Forms at Grounds For Sculpture. There's
I'm told that this bridge was important in the film A Quiet Place. I didn't see it. Was it scary? Should I have been frightened of this bridge? #aquietplace #bridge #stayquiet #movie #scarymovie #raw_bridges #amazingshots_bridges #bridges_of_our_
This picture is a lesson for me. It's a reminder that planning is important in photography. When we arrived at this site, sundown was already in progress and we were in a bit of a scramble. After one quick set-up, we saw where we wanted to be, but
There's that feeling of spring in the air, y'know? That indistinct feeling that tells your body...it's coming. The warmer weather, the fresh air. I'm looking forward to getting outdoors again. At least until it gets really hot and then I'll be re
I spent a long time in May and June of 2022 in Florida due to family emergencies. The one plus side of being in Florida was the abundance of wildlife for me to photograph. I didn't have to search very far from my parents' house to find this great b
This past weekend, I went to Sandy Hook to look for the seals. At first, we didn't see them, but we did encounter several foxes and lots of osprey. This particular fox was running across the parking area and I was sitting on the ground a good dista
