This morning I went to visit one of my favorite nature photography interest sites, NatureScapes.Net (NSN), and discovered that my photograph “Glowing Fern” was named Image of the Week in their Digital Creations image gallery forum.  I don’t usually do a whole lot of digital manipulation to my photographs (and whenever I do I always [...]

I’m now in Virginia and in a couple hours I’ll be feasting on a delicious Thanksgiving dinner with Chris, his mom, stepdad, and two kitties, Harry and Gremmy.  I’ve spent the morning baking apple pie, running around the neighborhood (literally), playing fetch with Gremmy (he’s one cool cat), and otherwise enjoying a low key, chill morning.  What a [...]

Sorry for my lack of posts recently.  My new job schedule has been pretty hectic and in between planning courses, running overnights, and job training, I’ve had little free time for photography.  Tomorrow, I have a day off though, and plan to check out a couple of local hotspots to get back into the groove [...]

I have just accepted a full-time position working for an outdoor education company as a field instructor.  I will be working at Wildcat Mountain, located in Waywayanda State Park in West Milford, NJ for Project U.S.E. (www.projectuse.org) is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing quality, memorable outdoor education experiences to individuals through ropes courses, rock [...]

I wanted to take the opportunity to publically wish my mom a Happy Mother’s Day!  I am very fortunate that my mom has sacrificed so much for me, and given me the opportunity to travel locally and pursue nature photography to the extent that I have.  Without my mom’s love and support, I never would [...]

I will be graduating from The College of New Jersey on May 16th (finally).  It’s been a long journey, but the end is finally near.  This is my last week of student teaching, and Wednesday will be my last final exam of my undergraduate career.
I will finish with a Bachelor’s of Science in Health and [...]

I’m heading to Virginia today to spend the weekend with Chris, since his birthday is Monday and I have to teach that day.  We have plans to do a bit of photography, including wildflowers and salamanders around Shenandoah National Park and Great Falls National Park, so hopefully I’ll have some new photographs to post in [...]

I’m back in New Jersey now, counting down the days to graduation.  My school work leaves me nearly no time for photography, and as I type this I’m taking a break from writing my capstone project paper for my final class as an undergraduate college student.  It’s quite exhausting and I for one cannot wait for [...]

I’m in Texas, but I do have internet access.  Today I received an email about my hard drive, so I decided to write a quick blog entry to keep you updated.  The data recovery company I sent the hard drive to wrote “We have examined your hard drive and have found that it exhibits symptoms of [...]

Tonight, I leave for Fort Worth, Texas to attend the American Alliance of Health and Physical Education Recreation and Dance (AAHPERD) national convention.  I have never been to Texas before, and while the opportunity to photograph some new subjects is appealing, I have found that in the past I have little to no free time [...]
