Found another spot for this particular evening and was really enjoying myself waiting for the light to fade. The sky did not do quite what I wanted to later with twilight however the last rays along the valley floor turned everything golden against the blue shade of the lower brush and water...
Anytime I am at a new place, I am mentally taking notes of places to return for potential sunset/sunrise that look fruitful compositionally speaking. I had stopped at this spot earlier in the day with my wife but due to wearing ourselves out, she elected to stay at the campground. The spot...
I have been away from this site for too long, away from photography since coming back from Kings Canyon and Sequoia National Parks. Other interests took precedent but I still have images to go through and edit. However, the light was fantastic down in the canyon and I just wanted to share some...
My wife and I are headed out west to Kings Canyon and Sequoia for a week of camping, hiking and of course photography. For those that have been there, what are some must see vista's for sunrise/sunset as well as places to visit. I know the typical stuff that is listed online but always value...
Old General Stores that is. This one is located on some back roads in Middle Tn. I have a thing for these old stores, whether they are operational or not I have to capture them. This was taken back in 2015 on Ilford fp4+ film on a I believe a cheap Minolta xg1 and rokkor 50/1.7.
...Old Stone Fort State Park that is. This is a spot I visit every spring as the daffodils bloom later that at other places nearby. Dogwoods are not far behind. This was captured 2 or 3 years ago I believe and I didn't get what I wanted this year however there is always the next year :)...
I posted an image not before shared from back in 2014 on the B&W thread. I had 2 other images I wanted to share that really show the dunes' movement (as I was being sandblasted in the process). The color is a bit more abstract but I also I am showing a similar but looser composition in B&W...
This is an image taken 4 years ago that I have never shared until now. It seems to have grown on me, originally processed and converted to monochrome at that time. I figured I would share it with you all. Canon 5dmk11 and a tamron 24-135/3.5-5.6 lens (meta data says canon version, but that is...
Weddings are such a special time, a once in a lifetime event for a couple and proper documentation of this event is crucial. Photographing weddings can be hectic but I have been blessed with the most kind and cooperative couples whom I equally want to put at ease. In this post, I want to...
I have been away from this site for too long! Thank you to Ben Egbert for reaching out :) From about a month ago, the below image is from North Georgia near Brasstown Bald. My wife and I took a day trip and hiked down to this falls. A beautiful cascade, I chose to shoot ilford fp4+ for...
From a trip to GSDNP back in 2014. Never really shared any or many of these so I figured I would share a few. These are the color images, I was also shooting B&W film and converted a bunch of the digital to B&W as well. But for now, color. A test of wills if you wish, my bare legs were being...
I posted some digital work of these falls the other day in the landscape thread. Here is some B&W work on traditional B&W film (TMAX 100) from last Saturday. Above and at the falls. Canon 7ne, 17-40L w/ cpl.

Looking out over the edge and into the setting sun

From my "frozen" series that I have been posting on the landscape thread. This is Suter Falls, shot on TMAX 100 with 17-40L and cpl on a canon 7ne, developed in diafine (an odd combo, I know. T-grain films are not supposed to like diafine as a developer). It was a COLD day and had been below...
A few more images from Sunday. The warmer weather has pushed in, tomorrow will be a high of 69 and it is 59 deg at 9:40pm. Hard to believe we were below freezing for 2 solid weeks. But here are some fruits of my outing.
From Savage Falls, above, at and below. This is part of the South...
As frigid temperatures are now behind us (as of this evening), I headed up to the South Cumberland State Park this weekend to capture some frozen falls. I was in for a treat. They were all almost completely frozen solid. I was shooting film yesterday (mainly tmax 100 but some color c-41 as...
At the end of September, my wife and I journeyed across the country to Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons. We spent a week camping at the Madison River Campground right before they closed for the season. It was a time of change at the park as winter closed in quickly. The hot springs were...
To follow up on my post in the B&W forum, here are some color images of Ernst Tinaj at Big Bend National Park. Not the easiest place to get to...one must have a 4 wheel drive vehicle or at least one with high ground clearance to travel along the old Ore Road and then a short hike of a spur...
Going back over some files I never uploaded, an entire trip to BBNP back in late fall of 2015 (we went twice that year). Exploring some slot canyons provided us this wonderful view. The lines and texture led me to a conversion of this digital file in LR to monochrome. I may post a similar...
No, not that Taj Mahal, the Taj Mahal at Big Bend National Park. This was shot at dusk almost 3 years ago from the backside, 2 different perspectives. I hope to catch a sunrise from the front view one day. I have never shared these images before and I did just a slight rework or rather...
There is an issue with Uploading Photos (attachjments). I am not sure what the problem is, and I am looking into it. You can still try to Create your Threads and Upload your Photos, but it is hanging up during the Upload.
