Great Blue Heron




These pictures were taken on Saturday at Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge. This place has become a favorite spot to take picture for me lately. I was very lucky to catch these herons early Saturday morning.

Old Orchard Beach





I took a road trip to Maine this past week. It was beautiful and so quiet during this off peak time. Here are a few pictures that were taken at Old Orchard Beach.

These are my two Newfoundlands. They are a constant source of entertainment! Like here....they are pretending to be good dogs!!!

Sunrise Jan. 21st

Group of Geese


I found this group of geese as I was driving around one morning. I was lucky enough to get some great shots without scaring them away.

Sunflower


One of my favorite flowers.

Trees on the Horizon


Group of trees somewhere between Owaso Lake and Cayuga Lake.

Stained Glass Window

I took these pictures last weekend as the sun was setting at Long Point State Park. After getting shut out on the sunrise the day before, the sunset was such a beautiful sight.

Snowy Road #2


This was another shot I got when I was out driving during an early morning snow storm in Janurary. Some days I am lucky to get one good shot, this morning the snow seemed to make everything so much more beautiful.

Snowy Road


I discovered this road while randomly driving around one morning. This was such a great shot that I went back to the same road the next weekend. All of the snow had melted by then and it looked like a completely different place.

Poplars


This is a row of poplars I was passing by during a snow storm at the end of January.

Wolf Tree #2


A full shot of the whole tree.

Wolf Tree


This tree is located near Cayuga Lake. It caught my eye as I was driving by one day. It is out in the middle of a field all by itself. It has survived the test of time.

Bird on a Cat-Tail



This picture was taken in April 2004 in Montezuma Wildlife Refuge. It was a few days after we had so much rain that many areas were flooded out.

Geese



This picture was also taken in April 2004 at Montezuma Wildlife Refuge.

Skaneateles Lake Dock


This picture was taken on March 4 at Skaneateles Lake. I got up early, as I have been doing every Saturday for the last several weeks to catch the sunrise. As you can tell, it was so overcast that I needed to figure out Plan B or my day was going to be shot (no pun intended!). I had taken some pictures at this same location the weekend before but we didn't have any snow and they were pretty boring. I was excited about the shot and even more excited when I got home. Post-processing: changed to B&W only.
