I call them Portals on my website. Not the nerdy type that has to do with the Internet, but the visual kind involving pretty doors and windows. My fascination with entryways began years ago on trips to Europe. In the crowded alleys and streets of villages throughout France and Italy (to mention a few), the narrow […]

Well, here we are. Another year gone by and a bunch of photos added to my archive. But, does our photography improve year-to-year, or are we doomed to rehashing old successes within our cozy comfort zone? I do think most photographers tend to stick to a fairly narrow range of subjects and techniques, but this is not necessarily a bad thing. After all, our […]

GPS: 43°58’58” N 71°06’59” W CONWAY Capturing fall foliage reflections is a type of autumn photography I enjoy and strive to repeat every year. Under the right conditions, it can yield impressionist and abstract images that emphasize color over form. A great location for catching fall foliage reflections is on the Saco River in Conway, New […]
