On March 16th I will be presenting in person to the Lehigh Valley Photography Club. My presentation will be on Architecture and the session will be at 7:00 PM. I know that a lot of my followers are outside of the Lehigh Valley and so for this upcoming presentation, the Lehigh Valley Photography Club is allowing me to promote this session for non-members to join in person or Zoom. There is a $10.00 fee to register and the good news is, if you can’t make the date/time on March 16th, the session will be available for you to view for up to 4 weeks from March 16th. I hope that you will consider joining me for this session virtually or in person. For more info or to register, click here: https://bit.ly/3IDdahC…

Atmospheric Magic In Promised Land State Park

In this video, I am going to take you to Promised Land State Park (PA), an area I have wanted to get to and am glad I finally did. When I arrived at the park the temperatures were 5 degrees F below zero. As I started my hike, the weather was no longer a factor because I was presented with an enchanted beautiful environment. There was a blanket of clouds that created a magical ethereal effect. Between the cold temperatures and the water flowing, the affect that was created was mystifying. I hope you enjoy my journey through the frigid temperatures and to see the result of what I will say is my favorite image to date in 2023. Please check out the video & let me know your thoughts: https://youtu.be/6CHMVd0ThmY

Grounds For Sculpture

In this video I will share my experience photographing and filming at the Grounds For Sculpture in Hamilton New Jersey. This is an absolutely amazing cultural facility with both large and small sculptures. I have photographed here during the day in the past. But, recently I visited the complex during their evening “Night Forms” event. The experience was amazing but challenging from the low light aspect. Here I put my camera gear to the test by using the highest ISO settings I have ever used during a photoshoot. YouTube video: https://youtu.be/It4yao589L4

In this video, I will share my thoughts and impressions on the new OM-5 camera from OM System. I will share my experiences along with images from this camera and some of the associated specifications. I will also highlight some of the computational features I use. The imagery shown in this video is a small sampling of approximately 10 days in the Italian Dolomites. All of the images were shot using this camera.

The lenses I used with the OM-5 are the M.Zuiko Digital ED 8-25mm F4.0 PRO, M.Zuiko ED 12-100mm f4.0 IS PRO and M.Zuiko ED 40-150mm F4.0 PRO.

In keeping with the Halloween theme today, I thought I would post a few images from when I was hiking on a trail above Lehigh University. This area is know as the Lehigh Millennium Folk Arch and Art Enclave. And yes, they have been heavily edited.

One of my favorite places to photograph is the Giving Pond in Bucks County, PA. My plan was to capture some early morning fog. But I ended up having to change plans. Check out the short adventure and the final results. Check out the video HERE

I had an amazing opportunity to spend some time in the various swamps on the border of Texas & Louisiana. This is one of the early morning shots of the beautiful fog on the water. It only lasts for a very brief time. More to come.
