One final adventure with Leica Green
Last Sunday, I transferred ownership of my Leica M3 (“Leica Green”) to a rising photographer for her future use. But before I gave her the camera … I took one or two “final photos” of Leica Green. It’s a similar pose I used with Leica Green when I was first gifted the camera; I based…
Read MoreThe truths and myths of impeachment
Donald Trump was impeached last night. He is the third President to be impeached. He is the first President to be impeached in his inaugural term. Now what happens?

I’ve shot with print film, slide film, black and white…

The Rexleigh Bridge in 3D
I’ve photographed the Rexleigh Bridge in Washington County over the years, trying to find the best image that I can possibly create. Two years ago, I achieved that with my Milky Way photo Washington County, 2:30 a.m. So this year, I wanted to see what would happen if I tried to capture the Rexleigh Bridge…
