    Michigan Five-O

    The title of this post is a nod to the popular TV show of my youth, of which I remember nothing other than the intro and theme song and a single oft-repeated line: “Book ’em, Danno.” While Hawaii was the fiftieth state to join the Union (from which the TV show got its name), it…

    Hummingbirds in Wyoming

    This week we take a break from our usual assortment of neglected structures for something completely different. After our few days in Cheyenne (covered in the last two posts) we spent a week up on Casper Mountain. The house/cabin we rented was well-equipped with hummingbird feeders and no shortage of hummingbirds. I’ve gotten a smattering…

    Desoto State Park

    For the next few weeks I am going to circle back to Alabama and fill in a few entries that got squeezed out by the Yorkshire trip. We’ll start with Desoto State Park in far northeast Alabama. The part is divided into two disjoint pieces: the main section with the campgrounds (where Google Maps will…

    Well, this is the final installment of my Yorkshire 2025 blog series. The previous seven posts have each corresponded to one day of photography. This wrap-up post gives me a chance to include an assortment of images that I did not include along the way. (There are also a few that I have featured at…

    Off the Pavement

    We’ll start this week’s set of images with a few that feature limestone pavements. I talked about these a few weeks ago, too, so I won’t repeat that discussion here. For someone who has lived and photographed in the desert southwest of the US, these formations are both foreign and fascinating. They don’t have the…

    Yorkshire Day 5

    After saying in last week’s post that I do not take as many shutter speed variations of moving water as I should, here is a counterexample where I took eight separate images ranging from 1/8 second to 1/250 second. Typically, I might take two: a fast one and a slow one. It’s really a question…

    Fields, Forests, and Falls

    We have now reached the midpoint of my time photographing in Yorkshire: Day 4. This day was, for the most part, my second pass through the areas shown. The weather and light was not the same, of course, but it was my second chance to compose images in most of these locations. The two images…
