Scotland Photography Continued

FOLLOWING my post last week of a photo of a rushing river in Scotland’s Great Glen, I decided to post another photograph from the same Scotland vacation.  This photo is my favorite from the barge trip, which was a week-long cruise in which we crawled (approximately 7 miles per day) along the Caledonian Canal on a [...]

This photograph was taken while on a tour of the Caledonian Canal.  Throughout the week, we stayed on a barge called ‘The Scottish Highlander’ and dined on excellent Scottish cuisine.  This was taken on one of the day trips– a wonderful opportunity to photograph a ‘wild’, rushing river.  Just lovely.

Most artists thrive on positive feedback, and I am no exception.   So when a January photograph of my mom’s mentee, Anna, was chosen as the cover photo for the May 2011 issue of Destinations Magazine,  I felt a jolt of surprise– then a happy high that lasted for days.  On the left below, you’ll [...]


Time. Pieces.

Time. Pieces.

I so enjoy #Frifotos, the weekly Friday photo forum on Twitter.  The themes motivate me to take a second look at my photographs, by which I either rediscover great shots I’d passed over before or, by underlining common content matter, bring my attention to those I can compile into a gallery.  For example, I never [...]

New Zealand’s Beauty

New Zealand's Beauty

Today Prince William visited New Zealand and spoke in honor of those who died in last month’s earthquake.  He also offered condolences to the people of Japan, expressing that New Zealand’s community can fully appreciate the horror of what the Japanese are going through. I also want to share my deep concern for these beautiful [...]

Jump for my Love-- Add Dynamic Jumping Pics to your Travel Photography Repertoire!

When Margo Millure of the Travel Belles asked me for a favorite travel photo, my thoughts flew not to my shots of vibrant Venice canals or the serene Japanese Alps, though they are lovely, but to a picture that brought grass-scented prairie winds of New Zealand rushing back.  Cool glacial air surrounding me, I was [...]

“Lift your arm higher, now keep your chin down and look at me without turning your head.” My voice sounds confident as it rings out into the studio. A year ago, I never thought I could take pictures like this. In what seems like an impossible move, I’ve jumped right to studio sessions with professional models, taking photos that rival spreads in our favourite glossy magazines…
