The Rose garden

The Rose garden

This multi colored rose is one from the healing garden. I love the shades of color that this one gives. The aroma from this flower is amazing, to wake up each day and see the beauty that only Mother Nature can give to the world is to be admired. I want to share this beauty [...]

Blue Jays

Blue Jays

In keeping with this weeks Colors in Nature theme, being the color blue, I have selected photos of the Blue Jay. Most of these were taken in my backyard. To attract the Blue Jay I put whole peanuts in the bird feeder. The Jays love these and will take the whole peanut (in the shell) [...]

Time for Snow – A Series of Snowy Egret Photos

Time for Snow – A Series of Snowy Egret Photos

Snowy egrets are quite common around where I live here in Southern New Jersey. We don’t usually see to many in the winter (ironic huh) but they are usually abundant in the spring, summer and fall months. An incredibly beautiful bird, I really like the yellow accents around the eye and the feet. I think [...]

Nature’s Colors Series: Blue

Nature’s Colors Series: Blue

The next in the series of colors, Blue. In searching through my collection of photographs it’s obvious blue seems to be the most common color followed up by green which makes sense with all the sky and water in many photos I’ve taken. You can see whether the camera is pointing up, down or almost [...]

Bar Harbor Maine Landcapes

Bar Harbor Maine Landcapes

Back in July of 2008 my now fiance and I took a trip to Bar Harbor Maine to relax and take in the beautiful scenery. One evening as we traveled up to the top of Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park just before sunset we could tell it was going to be incredible. As we [...]

Attempt at Macro

Attempt at Macro

I always wanted to shoot macro photos of nature but I didn’t want to spend the money involved with macro lenses. I know you get what you pay for but my main interest is regular wildlife shots so I purchased a set of Kenko extension tubes for under $200.00. From the reviews on these they [...]
