Talking Landscape Photography

November 25, 2021
I don’t often find myself in front of a camera, but last night I joined Luke Tscharke and Paul Hoelen on their online photography chat show – Talking Landscape Photography.

Sassafras flower on moss, Styx Valley

Sassafras on moss

October 19, 2021
Every spring the sassafras tree drops its flowers onto the forest floor, and trips to some of my regular forest haunts like the Styx Valley and Philosopher Falls become obsessive games of searching for a nice looking flower that will look nice positioned against some stunning green moss.
