August Desktop Calendar: Colorado Water

I’ll be honest. Until my good friend, Ryan Voight, alerted me yesterday, I had no idea it was August. True story, and I’m blaming it on the heat. I spent the end of last week riding around one of the big ranches east of Lubbock with another good friend and writer, Stayton Bonner, and it [...]

Field Lighting #21: Seeing Ambient Light Values

I live in West Texas. It’s flat. So flat that we don’t use parking brakes, which I’ve come to find out is somewhat of a necessity here in Scotland (no, I have not hit anything or anyone with the car except for the curb, ONCE, on my first day of driving on the other side of [...]

June Desktop Calendar: Lonely Mediterranean

Summer is nearly upon us, and even though everyone is slowly getting in to “hot weather” mode, we all know we enjoy the season’s energy. It’s certainly starting to come on in full swing in Malaga, Spain. The coastal city is a popular place for Europeans from the north to visit during the summer months, [...]

Photo of the Day: Dolan Creek

One of the more pristine water sources in Texas resides just a short hike up a canyon near Dolan Falls on the Devil’s River. Dolan Creek feeds the Devil’s, much in part from natural seepage from the canyon walls that line its path through acres of wilderness and sparse ranch land. The creek is mostly [...]

February Desktop Calendar: A Way to the Water

It took me a two-week blog hiatus to get this to you on time, but you can’t hose me for getting the calendar to you a few days late this month, ha ha! Evergreens are nature’s gift to the photographer during the winter. Trees of any substance in West Texas drop their leaves at the [...]

Photo of the Day: Misty Reflections

Across West and North Texas, as well as North Louisiana, we’ve seen a rather mild winter so far. Add a little moisture, humidity, and some sub-freezing morning temperatures, you have a combination for rather clear days and fog on the water. This low fog just south of Sibley, Louisiana, provided a thin enough shroud for [...]

Photo of the Day: Hunters Lake

We’re half way through a week in Colorado, and we’ve spent a good bit of that time hiking around much like we do in Texas…only it’s a nice 60 to 70 degrees F when the light’s right here. Last night we got back to the car and it was 49 degrees F. I live in [...]

The Atlantic

This is what I’ve always the imagined the Atlantic to look like (no, I’ve never been to the east coast). This morning’s walk on the beach in Pawley’s Island, South Carolina, however, gave me every characteristic I wanted to see. Near overcast, clean air, and calm waves. I’m impressed with all of the beach houses, [...]

Photo of the Day – Sabinal River Light

I was just down in the Hill Country for a show with the Hogg Maulies, and it was refreshing to see some of the rivers coming back to level! Here’s a take from the Sabinal River running through a beautiful ranch in Utopia, Texas. This has been the site of a lot of great photography!

Photo of the Day – Devil’s River more calm side

I’ve posted before about the Devil’s River, however, most of those posts include images of Dolan Falls. Dolan Falls is the site of the largest amount of water pouring over a set of boulders, however, no one ever gets to see the other direction, the side of the falls that represents a more serene environment.
