I’ve photographed many birds and wildlife and occasionally caught their intimate moments. For instance, I’ve photographed great blue herons building the nest on the secluded tree top mating and raising the chicks. During our trip to Custer State Park in South Dakoda last September, we […]
I took an overnight trip to Ohiopyle Sate Park in southwestern Pennsylvania two days ago. It’s about a two and half hour drive from Frederick where I live. Usually this time of year the fall foliage colors should reach the peak conditions but not this […]
I’ve been taking misty Great Falls photos in the fall for many years but still get excited to see and photograph these beautiful scenes. When I found out the temperature dipped down to close to freezing point this morning, I decided to join the commuters […]
We toured Huntington Library and Gardens two days ago – what a fantastic place to visit. One could spend a whole day there but regretfully we only had 2-3 hours, so we toured Desert, Japanese and Chinese Gardens. We hope to be back in the […]
I have previously posted two sets of morning light images taken at Badlands National Park during our recent trip. This is my last set of the magnificent landscape photos I took after the sunrise hour. As I mentioned previously I wish we could have stayed […]
We spent two days touring Theodore Roosevelt National Park in North Dakoda recently. We were pleasantly surprised to find out the beauty of the landscape of the Park, especially the North Unit and with our luck the fall foliage of cottonwood and aspen trees really added […]
While in Badlands National Park last week we saw the prairie dogs in the natural environment for the first time (vs.in the zoo). They are such a cute creature! As it turned out we came across prairie dog towns not only in Badlands NP but […]
On the way home from Smith Island last week, we stopped by Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge near Cambridge, Maryland. Here are some of the shots of osprey taken with my Nikon D600 camera with Tamron 150-600 mm lens.
It’s a challenge to capture nice fast-moving hummingbird images. Of course, sharpness is the utmost essential criteria but the gesture of the bird and the simplicity of the background are important as well. I decided to take up the challenge again this morning and ended […]
I took some hummingbird images last week using my Nikon D600 camera with 28-300mm lens. However, I was not 100% satisfied what I got because I had to crop so much and tended to lose the fine resolution. I decided to go back and using […]
It was a cool and pleasant morning yesterday. I decided to show a good photo friend about where I took the previous goldfinches and indigo buntings images at McKee Beshers sunflower field last week. We got lucky again to capture a couple of indigo buntings […]
I don’t remember I ever visited McKee Beshers sunflower field so many times in the past years. My first two times were strictly for sunflower shots but the last three times in the past two weeks were for birds especially goldfinches and Indigo Bunting. I […]
