We drove through rain the entire day to get to the range that we’d hike the day after and were delighted to see the weather give us a break and allow us to get a few dramatic photos of the adirondacks

While hiking through the Adirondacks in upstate NY, my girlfriend and I came upon this elevated portion of the trail. Through the clouds of mosquitos, we walked above some fragile shrubbery wondered how much further we were to the summit. This particular shot was taken on our way out - a great hike I’ll remember for quite some time.

Went out for a evening boat ride and ended up staying till sunset. The sky was initially very cloudy, but eventually let some light through for a great sunset.

We were out for a regular jaunt through the local forest in a large maple grove which is mostly reforested farmland. This old Studebaker had been intact the last time we had been there. We have taken many pictures here, mostly because my father who is now 91 once owned the same model. This time the car had been crushed by an old maple that had come down. As you can see it was a large tree, about 3’ diameter where it met the auto. It was late September, and overcast day and the air and colors were magical.

I attended a business conference in Cooperstown, New York in early May. The weather was cool, the sky was overcast and the trees didn’t have their leaves yet. During a break in the afternoon session, the skies cleared and I took some aerial photographs with my drone. I combined several of these into this sweeping panorama of Otsego Lake. This image reminds me that nature can be beautiful any time of the year but it’s up to us to be patient in order to capture and preserve it.
