More Silver Coast Beaches
This is going to be my last post featuring beaches in Portugal, and since I am tired tonight, I am going to try to keep my commentary on the images brief. Starting with the image above, I took a fair number of pictures of this rock, which to me looks like the head of a

Golden Day on the Silver Coast
Despite it being the back half of November, we were largely cursed with beautiful weather in Portugal. I say “cursed” because in most respects featureless blue skies are challenging to deal with as a landscape photographer. It is generally a lot easier to exploit a parade of interesting clouds that continually migrate across the sky.

Nazaré Beaches
As promised, this week our blog is back at the beach. The first series of five photographs are from around sunset at the same beach as the giant waves, just taken from down on the sand rather than from up on the cliffs. It was overcast and the light was fading, so the images as

More Colorado Fall Color
Well, fall color is pretty much gone in Colorado now, but a month ago I spent the weekend driving around the mountains looking for it. I had some success, but didn’t find any large aspen groves like I had the week before in Guanella Pass. Most of what I found was smaller groves and isolated

Deception Pass
One night during the Whidbey Island photography workshop, the informal plan was for us to go to Deception Pass to photograph the sunset. Fortunately, one of the attendees had a local photographer friend who knew exactly where to go, or I don’t think I would have ended up in the right spot. If you look

Camp Casey
During the photography workshop on Whidbey Island, we met in an old building that was part of Camp Casey, one of many that all appear to be in current use. I never saw inside of any of the other buildings, but the inside of ours was quite nice, clean, and recently painted. All of which

Waterfalls Aplenty
The last part of our 2021 fall trip to the northeastern United States was spent in Pennsylvania. I have always found Pennsylvania to be a pretty, if skunk-infested, state with lots of ridges and valleys and forests. This trip was the first time that I had ever visited Ricketts Glen State Park. My planned couple-hour

Rainbows over Rhode Island
If it hasn’t become clear by now, on this blog I try to bounce back and forth between featuring recent images and those from a few years ago. This gives me a chance to catch up with images that I should have dealt with in the past but never really did. This week’s post will

Chatfield State Park
Since my wife and I work past either end of Chatfield State Park and we almost always commute together, I drive up and down the west edge of the park many times each week. The singular feature of the park is Chatfield Lake (officially Chatfield Reservoir, since it is an artificial lake). Since I have

AndalucÃa Lens Usage
When I concluded my Santorini blog series, I wrapped things up with a tabulation of how much I used each of the lenses I brought on the trip. I have two main reasons to be interested in this data. First, I want to know whether bringing a certain lens was even worth the trouble. Second,
