Springtime waterfalls

Springtime in central Texas usually means rain, and rain means waterfalls.  We have both RIGHT NOW, and I am out with the camera chasing after them.  I captured these shots here in Austin just last week.  It felt to me like I was in some other state - maybe Oregon - with excellent streams and waterfalls, and nice comfortable temperatures.  So awesome!

Grunging it up on East 6th Street

Today I share some shots from a recent photowalk along East 6th Street, in downtown Austin.  Most folks visiting here go to West 6th Street, but this section of it is a little more grungy, and full of graffiti and a lot of character.  Take a quick tour with me and enjoy!  It's an interesting part of town!

A stunning sunset in the South of France

Does sleep ever with out over your desire to get out and shoot?  Sometimes it does for me, but generally not when I travel.  I often fight it off for as long as I can stand it, so that I can get in some more shots.  Today's post is a few photos from a stunning sunset in Montpellier that I would have missed if I hadn't been so stubborn!

The cafe life in Paris

It's a big fat post about the cafes in Paris, yay!  :-)  I spent a week in Paris more than a year ago, and just got around to processing some of these shots.  I started with one, then another, and ended up with 11 photos of cafes in Paris.  I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed being there taking them!

Sunrise in Boston

Boston is a beautiful town, and is great to photograph during sunrise.  You can wander around all the best spots and have them to yourself, which makes them even more enjoyable in my book!  Here is a collection of shots from a recent trip to that fair city.

Fall in Central Park

Central Park in New York is pretty gorgeous at any time, but it really shines in the Fall when the leaves start changing colors.  Read about my recent trip there, see 6 different photos, and listen to me musing about using my new Sony camera and a small, nimble prime lens.  It's all good!
