Things have been a little quiet here on the blog this year. I guess, perhaps, I’ve been suffering from a bit of writer’s block, but I have been enjoying sharing a daily image on Facebook. I’ll be writing more here on the blog soon.
At the end of 2011, I spent a couple of really enjoyable days at sand dunes in Death Valley National Park, including the Eureka Dunes. So far this year, I’ve spent a couple of days in southern Nevada at Valley of Fire State Park, as well as the surrounding Lake Mead National Recreation Area, and have been on a few rainy-day hikes at one of my favorite places in southern California.
I’ve uploaded new portfolio images to several of my galleries here on the site; all of these images have resonated with me, for various reasons, and I hope you check them out! A few (that haven’t already been featured here on the blog) are below.
I hope your 2012 is off to a great start!
A Foggy Day, January 2012
The Elephant & The Moon, January 2012
Persistence, November 2011
Nice, Greg! I especially like Foggy Day, beautiful capture of beautiful oaks.
I generally find that January is a slow, uninspired month, kind of a hibernation season. Certainly has been for me this year.
Happy late birthday!
Thanks, on both counts, Jackson. I appreciate it. Yeah, looking back, I kind of feel the same way about January. I’m looking forward to getting some more writing done in February, as well as maybe some image-making.
I’m glad you like the oaks…that was sort of a happy accident.
Very nice. Love the B/W of course, but to me ‘persistence’ really stands out. Your photos are always a pleasure to view — they just keep getting better.
Many thanks, PJ. That means a lot, coming from you. As for “persistence,” I really liked the incongruous take on Bryce…I think people thought I was crazy, pointing my camera *away* from the amphitheater. 🙂
These are beautiful images Greg. I especially like #1 – the treatment is perfect for this moody scene.
Thanks, Russ, I really appreciate it!
I love that Foggy Day shot Greg, especially for the little peek through a window on the right side. I find it to be an elegant composition.
I agree with the others, Greg. The Foggy Day is a gem. Wonderfully atmospheric. Looking forward to more as the year moves on.
Three more than worthy additions to the portfolio, Greg. I’ll cast my vote, along with the others, for A Foggy Day as my favorite of the bunch….not that there needs to be a favorite.
January and now February have been dismal months photogenically around here and more like March-like than winter. I always look forward to Spring but let it come early at this point.
Thanks for the comments, guys. I think the foggy day image is definitely a real winner…i’m glad I decided to bring my camera along on that hike!
We are enjoying the longer days here in southern California, and even a little winter-like weather (for us at least)…
