Grayton Stream Buy!
Location: Grayton Beach, Florida
Story:
Grayton Beach, Florida is just southeast of Destin, Florida. It is a small preserve with a stream winding it's way to the Gulf of
Mexico. I was here to attend the annual summit of the North American Nature Photographer’s Association. Only on this evening
were there any clouds during my stay and fortunately I was able to get here to see this scene in person. I was attending a
discussion on marketing photographs when I looked out the window and saw the clouds setting up for a nice sunset. I left the
conference and got here as quickly as I could. I had planned earlier to come here if the conditions were right. Time was of the
essence , so I used Google Earth to find this beach ahead of time so I could go right to this spot. Pre-planning is important if you
wish to witness more than your share of fortunate coincidences. The sand flowing beneath my feet was most memorable so I
concentrated on capturing it as best I could with F22. The resulting long exposure worked out well too.

| Other Places While I specialize in landscape photography of specific places, I will place other photographs that I like on this page. Sometimes they will be photographs of an area where I do not have enough for a full gallery page. Other times, they may be of other things or creations. Buy all photos on this page and in both Mexico galleries for website use! Go here for full-resolution downloads, low-cost photographic prints and framing of all images on this page. |
Joshua Tree Oasis Buy!
Location: Joshua Tree National Park, California
Story:
This was the only spot I could find in the entire park that had any standing water. It was late spring, and there were a few flowers
around but not enough to make a good landscape, so a water scene was the next best thing. It is a natural spring with a small
dam that raises the water level a few feet. It can go dry in the summer. Fortunately a few rare clouds drifted by, improving the
light quite a bit!

Tahoe Boulders Buy!
Location: Lake Tahoe, California
Story:
The ice-eroded boulders are photographic subjects in and of their own. I arranged them in a pleasing way and then waited for the
light to soften.
