Travel photos (anything outside of home area of Tampa, St Petersburg)
Tonight I am showing two shots from our vacation back from 2006 to Yellowstone National Park and Grand Teton National Park. It is fun to look back at some of my old shots to see how far I have come with my photography. Very few of my old favorite shots […]
A quick post tonight. I haven’t put up anything but wildlife type shots recently so I wanted to get back to the city. These are both from our trip to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The first shot is of course another view at night from West End Overlook. I did a panoramic […]
One of the places we got to visit in Gainesville was the Butterfly Garden at the Museum of Natural History. It was fun to see all the different kinds of butterflies and trying to photograph them. It is not easy to photograph them as the light is not the best […]
We spent some time in Gainesville, Florida this past weekend. That is where my wife and I went to college. It was nice to take our girls there and get to show them around some of the places we spent a lot of time. On Saturday the rain held off […]
The view of Pittsburgh from West End Overlook has to be one of the best viewpoints of any city a in the United States. I arrived a little bit before sunset and scouted the different angles and tried using different lenses to see which would work best. There were several […]

On our recent trip to Pittsburgh I did an exploration jog/walk downtown with my camera. I headed for the waterfront over by the convention center and then followed that down around the point and back the other side of downtown. One of the first things I saw on getting down […]
At Yellowstone National Park it is hard not to see wildlife. The buffalo are everywhere and frequently cause traffic jams and walk through the hot springs. The elk are also very common especially around Mammoth where they hang out at the lodge area. A lot of people hope to see […]
The two photos for today are titled “Over the river” and “Through the woods” and are both from Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Like most photographers I love photographing water with slow shutter speeds for the smoothness it brings out in the water. In Florida I do not get too […]
I am continuing to work through my photos from our Pittsburgh trip and these are two of my favorites. The first is a wider view of the city taken at night from West End Overlook. This photo was processed in Oloneo which handles the night scenes so well. I really […]
