Night Photography on Green Island Bridge – Troy, NY

Back to Troy we went to our favorite bridge to capture this night shot.  It took several attempts as this bridge really does not have a lot of traffic on it.  I wanted more headlights and taillights but often only one car would drive by during the exposure.  Here is one with several but I […]

Can life be any simpler – Windham, NY

Morgan’s dog Peeps has it good, real good.  She get 2 square meals a day, time to run outside, time to play inside but most of all, time to herself.  She sleeps about 10 hours a day and gets very frustrated when we DON’T go out and leave her alone.  She likes to sleep on […]

Thiokol Spryte #23, Hunter Mountain, NY

Being involved in the Ski Industry for as long as I have, you get to see a lot of cool things.  Grooming machines are one of the coolest machines around.  They can cost $125,000-$150,000 and most little boys only dream of owning one, or at the very least driving one.  I have had the pleasure […]

Logan and Justin – Tannersvile, NY

After dinner we decided to enjoy a local park until it got dark.  Of course, the kids did all the enjoying and I was just the driver to get them there.  Many parents understand what I am talking about.  Good thing they still allow me to photograph them.  ENJOY! 1/30, f2.2, ISO 800

Weather is Changing – Hunter, NY

As I walk towards my car, I looked to the West and saw this amazing scene.  Now that I always have a camera “on the ready”, I stopped and captured this.  The sun was shining way above the dark clouds as one storm front moves out and another sets in.  Gonna be an interesting weekend […]

Hensonville, NY – The Gem of the Catskills

With the fall colors bursting I thought this town sign might be of interest.  Hensonville, a small town established in 1818 in Greene County with an estimated population of 305, is one of those little towns that you don’t even realize you’re in an actual town.  Most don’t even know they drive through it when […]

This was my first attempt at night photography with the FUJIFILM FinePix X100.  Morgan and I first wanted to shoot some cars crossing the Green Island Bridge but then we looked towards downtown Troy and captured this cityscape.  ENJOY! 15sec, f5.6, ISO 100
