Since I’ll be on the road for the next couple of weeks, and my ability to post may be hindered, I hated to leave you staring at a photo of my feet. Instead, I’ll leave you with the first sign of Spring in our backyard — the Witch Hazels that we planted last summer are [...]

Sometimes that little bit of extra leg room makes all the difference.
My travel schedule is just about to shift into high gear. I leave for Thailand in a few hours with a short stop in Dubai along the way. I’ve been busily making preparations for weeks: getting photography permits, researching locations, etc., etc. But it’s [...]

In my last post, I talked about my desire not to look back on a year and see time wasted. In a funny coincidence I was alerted days later to one of my images appearing as a double-page spread in the new book, “Make the Most of Your Time On Earth” published by Rough Guides:

It’s [...]

Continuing my review of the the past decade…
2005 was a year of assignments throughout the Midwest for me. I like to take driving trips when it makes sense. I enjoy driving and like to be able to arrive at a place gradually, to know what is between here and there, and to have some sense [...]

The Blizzard of 2009 pretty much shut things down around here and we were basically house-bound for four days. The good side is that I made an incredible amount of progress on my image files – a DVD full of Mexico sent off to one stock agency, almost 900 shots of Egypt uploaded to Alamy [...]

I’ve made a long overdue update to my website by changing the home page photo to a couple from my Feb ‘09 Egypt trip. It’s something I’ve always intended to do on a monthly basis at least. This time it went for over a year.
This winter I made plans to make lots of updates to [...]

Meet our cat, Caper. He doesn’t always wear the hat — he was posing for a Christmas card a few years ago. The image on the right is him, too. His right hind leg, to be exact. Busted.
Caper loves to race up the stairs, jump onto the railing and jump again *over* the stairs onto [...]

I returned from Ohio on Saturday and ran right back out the door for a shoot at a winery near Kansas City on Sunday. The plan was that there would be a large number of people harvesting grapes but that work has been postponed for a week to let the fruit build up some more [...]

I’ve been on the road this week working on several projects. Domestic stuff — nothing outside the U.S. — but the inner Canadian in me was thrilled to spot this (and several other) Tim Hortons near Columbus, Ohio. Oh, Timmy! I knew you’d broken into Michigan but I’m so happy to see you spreading southward.
For [...]

I can’t complain about my job. I try to but nobody buys it. Truth is, it’s a pretty darned good job. I get to stay at places like the Luxor Hilton (shown above) in Luxor, Egypt and take photos. Sounds pretty sweet, doesn’t it? Take a look back across that infinity pool in the other [...]
