Kayak
We got out in the kayak for a few hours and it was beautiful. Saw an eagle, a blue herron and lots of color.
B&W photographs
Lately I’ve been posting images of swans and flowers because that’s what has been around for me to shoot. Some of them I converted to B&W and a friend mentioned that he liked them. I do too, I started out … Continue reading
More Swans
Swans are sure big, graceful, and beautiful birds and I don’t get tired of watching them. The one set of babies (cygnets) are getting big. Both Mom (called a Pen) and Dad (called a Cob) work together to protect their … Continue reading

Flowers and a Blue Heron
Photographs, reality, and art. When I have more time I want to write about these things. For now here are some images I hope you will enjoy.
More Swans and Geese
Riding around close to home I found more geese and swans. Great way to spend an afternoon!
Geese and flowers
I know I’m getting repetitive but at least I’m out with the camera. The baby geese are hard to shoot in the high weeds but I like to watch them. I’m going back tomorrow, there are older babies there that … Continue reading
Flowers, Geese, and a Building
More flowers, easy right, maybe one day I’ll get a really good one. They sure don’t last long, seems like one day they are here and the next they’re gone. The Bergen Machine building in Hackettstown, NJ is going to … Continue reading
Swans
It was challenging with dark water, white birds and bright noon sun. But they are beautiful birds. When the male took off the loud beat of his wings sounded like helicopter blades, it was awesome!
Spring
I took some more pictures around the house and went for a short drive to photograph some swans and ducks. I generally do something with photography every day because I just have to. Not all of my pictures are great … Continue reading
Ocean City, NJ 2012
We visited friends that live in Ocean city, their home was not significantly damaged. This probably accounts for the fact that their home is 11 feet above sea level which he said is like living on a mountain as far … Continue reading
Nature from my Kayak
Finally made it out in the kayak once again. Beautiful day and the wildlife was plentiful. The highlight for me was seeing a baby Green Heron, I also saw a raptor and photographed him but I haven’t finished processing my … Continue reading

Swan 2012
This time of year is a busy time for raising young. My brother found this swan nest and of course I had to photograph it. I’m sure I could have positioned myself better but I did not want to disturb … Continue reading
Ocean City 2012
We went to OC, NJ to visit friends and had a great time, good company and good food! We visited a couple of estuaries, always thinking we would get a winning photo. Didn’t happen but it was just great to … Continue reading
1st Kayak 2012
We took the kayak out today, the 1st this year. It was nice to get out and check around, nice weather but really windy. Last year this time the rivers were so high from all the rain we couldn’t get … Continue reading

Blossom 2012
We have a really large bush that blossoms each year with beautiful blossoms, later in the Summer it gets a few small fruit that look like real small green apples. So far no one has been able to identify it.
Alaska
Joanie and I just returned from a Lindbald cruise aboard the National Geographic Sea Lion. We traveled the the inside passage of SE Alaska between Sitka and Juno. The trip exceeded our expectations in all respects. The boat and staff … Continue reading
Kayak
I finally got out in the kayak. I didn’t get to the Delaware River because I was to tired from hauling wood. I did get to one of my favorite little rivers though and it was a beautiful outing. I … Continue reading
Local Photography
After a long Winter it’s finally time to get the kayaks out and do some nature photography, as soon as the weather cooperates. My first trip will be up to the Delaware river and I’ll get some of the photographs … Continue reading
NJ Black Bear
Hi Michele and any others that happen to be viewing my bears. This is a mom black bear I photographed outside of Belvidere NJ on my brothers farm. I had been wanting to get a picture of a bear for … Continue reading

Lakota Wolf Preserve
A friend and I went to the Lakota Wolf Preserve this past Winter to photograph the wolves. It was a wonderful experience. All four packs started howling and now I have that recording for my phone ring tone. The wolf … Continue reading
Photography Contests
I belong to a camera club that has photo competitions each month. Generally there are three categories: pictorial, nature, and prints. I always find the judging and the judges comments amusing. Some judges give little feedback other than an in … Continue reading
