Today's post is a collection of 20 photos from a summer hike up to Middle Fork Lake in New Mexico.  It's a beautiful and secluded spot, and well worth the effort to get to it!  I shot landscapes, waterfalls and even little fairy mushrooms - good fun!  Have a look, and thanks for stopping by!

Change is a given - and change is good.  I've personally gone through some major changes over the last (almost) year that I have been shooting with a mirrorless camera - and it's been incredible.  My eyes are wide open to the possibilities, and I am having a blast with all sorts of new and creative things that I never even considered before.  So, click on in and see what all I am talking about.  I now find myself on a new creative path, and it's awesome.

Here's a few shots from a trip I took last year up to Minneapolis.  It's really a very beautiful city, and this was my first visit with a camera.  These shots were all captured one evening during blue hour, down at their lovely State Theatre.  Have a look!

Some of the best graffiti that I have ever seen is in Sydney, Australia.  Wow, there was some cool stuff there!  I spent half a day wandering just a small section of town and came home with a LOT of photos of this urban art.  Today's post is a small sample of what I saw - hope you enjoy this stuff like I do!

Wishing everyone a healthy, happy, prosperous and joyous year ahead!

Today I share some thoughts on a new lens - a prime lens, no less.  It's way out of character for me, but it's an awesome little tool to add to the arsenal.  Oh and did I mention it's a Leica?  Well, it is, sort of.  And it takes great photos.   I just show up and it does all the work.  Well, not exactly.  I do a little more than show up.  But hey, showing up is half the fun!  Click on in and check out 22 photos that I have for you today!

Wishing you and yours a very happy and prosperous holiday season!
