Want to photograph the Atlantic Puffin? The best place in United States is Machias Seal Island, off the coast of Maine. My son, Ray Hennessy and I made the trip there recently. We left southern New Jersey early on a Sunday morning getting to Jonesboro, Maine that evening. We stayed at the Blueberry Patch Motel [...]

An incredibly beautiful bird, I really like the yellow accents around the eye and the feet. I think [...]
It’s been a little while since I’ve posted so I figured I’d put a quick series of white birds up. I’ve been a bit crazy trying to juggle all the work that comes to a photographer in the fall, so hopefully in the coming months, I’ll have a bit more time to dedicate to posting [...]
