Raeford Noirth Carolina Christmas decorations on Main Street showcase rural America’s holiday spirit—tasteful, not overdone.
Jack O’Lantern was found dead
Jack O’Lantern was found dead this morning by joggers in Raeford, NC, sometime around dawn. The Mayor expressed shock upon learning the area’s favorite fall visitor—a colorful and beloved character who sat quietly on his porch and smiled at everyone—met his demise on the mean streets of Hoke County. Blunt force trauma is listed […]
Pisgah covered bridge haunted?
Is Pisgah covered bridge haunted? A few claim to have seen a woman hanging from the rafters of the span, although exactly why her spirit haunts one of the two remaining historic covered bridges in North Carolina is apparently lost to history. The one-lane structure was built in 1911 for the tidy sum of $40. […]
Pisgah National Forest stream
Take a child outdoors, let them experience the wonders first-hand, and Mother Nature will have a new ally for life. Teach them to leave it cleaner than they found it so others can enjoy the experience. Glamorous locations aren’t mandatory, either. This Pisgah National Forest stream may not have a name, but I’m glad my […]
Sunset Over Great Falls Montana
I’m back from a short assignment and captured this decent sunset over Great Falls Montana. It’s not spectacular, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed it starts your evening with the same peaceful calm. The scenery there is spectacular, the people wonderful and my four-day trip too short—particularly since I spent two of them in airports […]
Velvet on a young whitetail buck’s antlers
Elvis sightings are more common here in North Carolina’s Hoke County than finding a mature whitetail deer to photograph. Velvet on a young whitetail buck’s antlers is still fulfilling when you capture it on an image, though, even if the big bruisers are scarce. A nice pose makes it a keeper. This one came in […]
Grandio greenhouse at night with stars
Capturing our Grandio greenhouse at night with stars in a fashion that showcases the evening sky, yet somehow communicates a well-lit and inviting structure is tougher than I thought. I went Strobist, but in this case, harnessed the power of Photoshop layers. I’m confident you’ll agree my past attempt at getting an evening shot fell […]
Time to Reserve Your Campsites
Spring has sprung, the weather’s great and the outdoor season is finally back. Now’s the time to reserve your campsites before yet another year goes by without family campfires, roasted marshmallows and smores all around. Parents, do it before the kids are gone, serving as public defenders, working with the Peace Corp in Africa, starting […]
Embarrassing Puppy Siblings
I’ve yet to uncover scientific confirmation, but an occasional photo I’ve taken for Maverick Danes leads me to conclude that some members of a litter feel like they have embarrassing puppy siblings. Expressions of total disgust appear regularly in images when two or more are forced onto the same “stage,” although the displeasure is so […]
Finally a Smore Look for the Book
Photographically capturing the outdoor experience in a manner that convinces people life’s better outside—away from the TV, gaming stations and potentially devastating affects of the breakneck pace we keep today—is a huge challenge. The foods and smells that are often a favorite are particularly tough, one reason I’ve invested so much time and effort trying […]
