Scenes from Steel Canyon
A week ago I shared some images shot in January 2025 at Lake Berryessa using my Fujifilm point-and-shoot camera. Here’s another look at that same visit through the lens of my phone camera.
Summer in the city
It’s not necessary for me to have any particular destination in mind when I visit San Francisco in the summer. It’s often enough to just wander around, keeping my eyes open. I’m always sure to find something that appeals to my camera. I shot most of these images with my Fujifilm point-and-shoot, which is perfect for this sort of street […]
Carillon Park
There were a few nice things about this small park in Southlake, Texas. First, it was a fairly short drive from where we were staying, in an area we were already somewhat familiar with. The Big Guy was able to catch some bass there, and I was able to walk the circumference of the pond before leaving him there and […]

That’s mostly because I do a lot of outdoor photography, and also because my results are only successful about half the time. Still, even though some of today’s images may not be the greatest as far as quality, they do serve […]

I didn’t get to explore as thoroughly as I wished because recent rains had left the ground very muddy, and the trail that I […]

Winter sunshine
It still hasn’t fully sunk in with me that spring has arrived. Late last January we made a day trip over to Lake Berryessa and found the skies completely clear and the temperatures surprisingly warm. The only clues that we were still in the throes of winter were the absence of other people along the lakeshore and the fact that […]
One night in Clarendon
I’ve written before about passing through Clarendon, Texas, on our travels to and from the Dallas-Fort Worth area. I never manage to shoot very many photos because our stops are so brief — but this time we actually did spend a night in town. Unfortunately, the wind was pretty much howling and the chilly evening temperatures didn’t encourage much exploring […]
