Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none.
Last Saturday, I had the honor of working with (and taking photographs for) one of my favorite local charities, Food for Neighbors. My wife and I have been supporting them for the past several years and have enjoyed watching the organization grow, expand to new schools and increase the number of students receiving weekend food. …
One of the things I love about nature and landscape photography is finding that quiet spot in the woods, at the beach or on a mountaintop. As far back as high school, I remember making time to grab my camera and heading out for a few hours to find an inspiring scene. Sometimes I found …
Today is National Siblings Day. While this is not a federally recognized holiday, the governors of 49 states have recognized this day at the state level. I’m not sure which state has been the hold out, but they really need to get their act together. If I had to bet, I would pick Vermont. They …

At this point in history, the Bobbie securing the gate of Buckingham Palace felt comfortable taking time to have a friendly …
I took these photographs back in 1992 on a film camera while on our honeymoon. I have always had a spot in my heart for San Francisco. It is a special city that has everything you would ever want. Good food, great people and a feeling of community that runs throughout the region. If you …
Another photograph of the big cats on a foggy morning at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. This particular shot is a bit more dramatic. “The truth is like a lion. You don’t have to defend it. It will defend itself.” – St. Augustine
I took this photograph in June 2017 at around 6:00 am in the morning. I felt fortunate to be there when the ducks were waking up with the morning fog lifting off the still water. “The question is not what you look at, but what you see.” – Henry David Thoreau
I took this photograph, using a film camera, early one morning during the DC Cherry Blossom season in 2010. Looking at this photo, this poem by Ada Limón seems especially appropriate for this year. Instructions on Not Giving Up More than the fuchsia funnels breaking outof the crabapple tree, more than the neighbor’salmost obscene display …
