Summer Stories. Patience

Walking the shoreline this morning, I spotted this fisherman resting in a bright yellow shirt and hat and found this moment interesting.

Other Reality. The Narrow World

While I usually prefer capturing the world as it is, this photomontage was born from a desire to create something entirely surreal. 

Inspired by the legendary photomontages of my favorite photographer,  Jerry Uelsmann,  I created this work by combining my own original photographs with carefully integrated a few AI elements. It’s an immersion into surrealism and digital "darkroom" experimentation.

One Morning with a Sandhill Crane - I

Luck plays a big part in bird photography. Every time I visit Bear River MBR, I hope for a pinch of luck to make the trip worthwhile—whether that means spotting a bird I've never seen before, or catching another glimpse of a Short-eared Owl.

Seeing a Sandhill Crane and following it into the marsh felt like a dream come true.

Taking a moment to preen, a Sandhill Crane gets ready for his close-up.

Generally, life is good.

Golden Cadence

Evening light, still water, and the unmistakable silhouette of avocets.
