Two days ago, I explained to my partner how landscape photographers often put together collections of images with a shared theme: all photos from a bayou in autumn, or of macro mosses, or whatever. I said, I have a few shots from ponds and lakes with monochrome small scenes, like lily pads floating on the surface or grasses (this) sticking up from the water.

Me, snickering at my cleverness: You know what I could call the collection?
Him: What?
Me: We all float down here.
Him: *blank stare*
Me: Like the movie IT?
Him: *another blank stare*
Me: You know, with the clown in the sewer? The red balloon? We all float?
Him: I never saw–
Me, in creepy clown voice: WE ALL FLOAT DOWN HERE!

Him: Never saw… IT.

Turn out he’s pretty damn clever, too. lol

Anyway, here are some ripples and grasses from my recent trip up north!

Sale ends today!

Slice of Heaven :: CT

I have the feeling that most photographers will be able to relate to this: I’ve shot this location dozens of times, and never walked away with a photo I liked until now. The frustration and subsequent feeling of triumph IS REAL.

Two of the biggest skills a landscape photographer needs is patience and perseverance. In the end, they’ll pay off.

“As long as I live, I’ll hear waterfalls and birds and winds sing. I’ll interpret the rocks, learn the language of flood, storm, and the avalanche. I’ll acquaint myself with the glaciers and wild gardens, and get as near the heart of the world as I can.” – John Muir

Another one from the archives. It was a beautiful, foggy sunrise and after I’d taken my grand landscape shots, we wandered a bit to see if anything caught our eyes. The dog was happy just to sniff around while I took photos of this and that.

Suddenly, the dog’s ears perked up and my other half called over to me. “Did you hear that?”

Do photographers EVER hear things when they’re lost in their creative flow? The obvious answer was no.

But, he swore up and down that he caught a glimpse of something BIG in the woods near the pond. And being in moose and bear territory, we decided it was time to shove off.

At least I got this photo. 🙂

Pandemics make travel difficult, obviously, so I’ve been going through my archives looking at shots I either never edited, or didn’t *like* the edit on at the time. I actually can’t remember if I released this before. But if I did, I know I wasn’t happy with it. Finicky perfectionist artists, amiright?

Anyway, today I sat down to edit and felt excited as the image took shape. So, now I present to you…maybe again…a photo of boats!
