Fall Color in Washington DC

October is my favorite Month of the Year.  I am truly blessed to live in my little corner of this world that for a short few weeks simply glows with spectacular fall color.  The shots above are basically the view I enjoy through the large picture window in front of my desk, here in my office.  I hope you might,  as I do,  slow down and take a little time each day to enjoy the Beauty of the World around you.

Healing Art

I've been providing a lot of Art recently for decor projects in various Health Care Environments.  Some designers call it Healing Art - working to tap into this specific market I have been gradually building a Collection of such images for use in this niche.  To see more take a look through these two Galleries on my Website:      Details in Nature/Macro   and   Details in Nature

Cherry Blossoms in Washington DC

If you plan on shooting the Cherry Blossoms this year you better get ready.  The Cherry Blossoms in DC, around the Tidal Basin,  are reaching Peak Bloom very early this year. Peak Bloom expected Tuesday 3/20.  Get down early to beat the crowds and capture wonderful views to include the Washington Monument and Jefferson Memorial.  If you happen to miss them around the Tidal Basin you always have the chance to catch them a bit later on the grounds of the US Capitol - the West side of the US Capitol offers some opportunity for great images as well as the East Side near the Supreme Court.  Here's an article included in this month's Popular Photography including a few tips from me on photographing the Cherry Blossoms in DC.  I'm hoping for a day or two of dramatic early morning light to add images to my Cherry Blossom Gallery within my collection of Washington DC Images.

Twisty Old Oak greets another Day

This Old Timer has seen many Days come and go.  I love shooting the shapes and details I see in the Architectural Elements of Washington DC Architecture- but am also fascinated with the patterns and symmetry found all around us in Nature - that exist at all scales - large and small.
