We’re getting more than a little excited about the upcoming Adirondack High Peaks Winter Photography Event that starts Jan 30. With Olympic Passports to get us into the Olympic venues and it looking like a winter storm coming to give us plenty of snow things are looking really good. Add our guest speakers, Chris Murray […]
By this time each January in upstate New York, many of us, especially landscape photographers, (and gardeners, I bet) start to get a little antsy. Sure, many of us appreciate and enjoy the opportunities the winter landscape provide for us to ply our passions behind our cameras. Still, many of us long for the colors […]
Yesterday, I wanted to get the new year off to a good start, photographically. Despite a generally dismal day weather wise I did get out with my camera. When I’ve had the opportunity recently my intent has been to really pay attention to creating images that are expressive, sharing what it was like to me […]
Get Excited! Every time it snows I get a little more excited about the upcoming First Annual Adirondack High Peaks Winter Photography Event Jan. 30 to Feb. 3, 2019. Recently, I made a run up to the High Peaks region to coordinate catering for this event (you better be hungry) and I got to enjoy […]
Technically it was still winter on March 17th. And, outside it certainly felt like winter as we parked our cars and made our way into the Carol Watson Greenhouses in Lafayette, NY. The day had been scheduled with a half-dozen photographers mostly from Central New York . . . one was from Akron, OH. A few […]
Some folks say they can do two things at once. I’m not one of them. So, why does it always seem like I ought to be doing a half-dozen things all at one time? I’m not even going to try and answer that question. As it happens my to-do list seems to get longer every […]
I know a number of photographers around Central New York who are pretty down in the mouth about the opportunities for winter photography, especially what passed for winter around here in the January just passed. I was among them until the last few days, when I changed my approach to the opportunities I was seeking […]
Earlier today, as the temperatures rose to near 50 degrees and the piles of snow that were only a few days old melted away, I was feeling blue. I wanted to get out and get some winter photos. But, alas, no winter was to be found. Then it occurred to me that only last weekend, […]
It’s only 11 days until we get together for a up-close and personal experience. At least that’s one way of describing the second half of our day-long workshop at Baltimore Woods, Saturday, November 18. Because we’re working on preparing for winter photography in the morning, it makes sense to look at an option with our […]
If I were a betting man, and I’m not, I’d bet the just past mid-March snow storm will be the last significant blast of winter for the 2016/2017 season. While the temptation was there to join the chorus of moaning and groaning, instead I decided to take advantage of the storm. After all, we really […]
