I got a chance to get out of Ponte Vedra and make my way down toward Tampa this weekend. I was visiting my sister Sarah who was in town for a blood convention...no she's not a vampire...just works for a blood bank type company. Give Blood WOOOHOOOO!!!

Anyways, on my way down I passed a rundown old motel and couldn't resist the urge to hit the brakes and turn around to take a few shots with my camera. Here is what I got.












It was refreshing to know you don't have to go to the desert of Navada or Utah to find a rundown old motel to get some cool shots of. Hope you enjoyed!!!

Just Off The Beaten Path

March 8, 2009
In my search to find some landscape photography locations I've been visiting some of North East Florida's parks and venturing off the beaten path to find "the shot". Near Florida's has a lot of Water Oaks. These trees grow to be really big and their branches go far in each direction. Often near the coast they grow at an angle rather than straight up often framing roads and pathways.
 
A few weeks ago I found a peaceful spot in Guana River State Park, a National Estuarian Reserves. I snapped ...

Florida Landscape?

February 28, 2009

I grew up in middle Tennessee with countryside and hills all around. There was plenty of places to get away from civilization and fade into the colors of nature. Ten miles in any direction from my house would find a different landscape. Streams, hiking trails and waterfalls were as common as dinners with whole family. At any given time at least one room in the house had almost packed or just unpacked bags for a night in some forest or cave. Ever heard the song "Boondocks" by Little Big Town? ...

Landscape Photography

February 24, 2009


As an Adventurer and Photographer I love to blend my passions. I love to capture the beauty of the outdoors and attempt to bring its grandeur into the living room. I've learned that it's not easy to capture an expanse such as the Grand Canyon on a small piece of film or a digital sensor.  

  

How many times have you taken a picture of an amazing landscape but were sorely disappointed at how uninspiring the print turned out? I've seen some amazing places; from Africa's Zambezi River to C...
