Yorkshire Pudding
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…

Gulf State Park
Gulf State Park, which figured prominently in last week’s post, had more on offer than birds. In addition to an abundance of wide paths that easily accommodated walkers and bikers both, there were some nice boardwalks that gave a slightly elevated perspective. The image of ferns, above, definitely benefited from this. I know that ferns…

Alabama Gulf Coast Birds
In our efforts to explore as much of Alabama as we could manage during our ten weeks there, we spent a weekend down on the gulf coast. Given that it was still only April, it was very humid—not a comfortable place in the summer, to be sure, but that can be said for all of…

Pollination
There are a fair number of swamps and swampy areas in the Huntsville area. In addition to the Beaver Dam Boardwalk in the Wheeler National Wildlife Refuge, featured a few weeks ago, we went to a place called Hays Nature Preserve. It didn’t turn out to be one of our favorite places to walk—primarily because…
