Not a whole lot to say here other than these white chalk cliffs are pretty impressive, and Beachy Head is mentioned in a song I like about the Spitfire airplanes… and while I was there an old plain flew by – I couldn’t tell if…

My stop through Salisbury was a bit of a whirlwind. I arrived Sunday evening after the diving in Plymouth (I still owe you folks a quick video from the diving, but I still need to process them) and then I continued on Monday morning for…
And before I went diving in Plymouth, I visited a historic site in Dartmoor National Park called Grimspound. There are 24 of these stone hut circles surrounded by a short stone wall (seen on the right in the below panoramic shot). Next to the village…
Taken during one of my morning strolls along the canals in Utrecht in the Netherlands…
Well, now that I’m on the other side of the planet (ok technically, the other side of the planet from where I am right now is somewhere in Venezuela, but the other side of the planet from Pittsburgh is somewhere in the Indian Ocean, so…)…
I always seem to like photographing interesting bends in trails while I’m out. Usually they only end up as wallpapers on my phone, but I’ll share a couple… The one above and the next one are both from a short trail I hiked while I…
I leave on the next round of my travels soon (tomorrow)… I have some posts scheduled, but I don’t know how soon I’ll be able to start posting new stuff so stick with me and hopefully I won’t be radio silent for long. The first…
Sometimes the sunset just isn’t as nice as you’d like… I wanted to wait and see how well the colors developed, but it was getting dark quickly, and I wasn’t sure how strict they are about hiking after sunset down in Summersville, WV. So I…
Another big post of waterfalls, so let’s get right to it… Wyandot – 15′ To be entirely honest, at this point the park was getting more crowded, it was starting to rain, and I was starting to get hungry… so my compositions aren’t always the…
There are only three waterfalls on the southern leg of the Falls Trail System and I wonder how many folks do themselves a disservice and skip this section. These are three very nice falls. Murray Reynolds – 36′ Sheldon Reynolds – 36′ Huh – I…
Ok – no waterfall today… About midway through my hike, there was a nice downed tree that was laying across Kitchen Creek and offered a perfect opportunity to stop and relax on a limb of the tree that made a reclined seat. I sat and…
Ricketts Glen State Park in Pennsylvania is known for having 22 named waterfalls within a very short distance (the park brochure says both 7.2 miles and 3.2 miles, but I’m having a hard time telling which number is correct – if either). Also, the main…
I recently spent a weekend in upstate New York visiting my friend Philippe, and we spent some time out hiking. First we visited a trail outside Old Forge, NY and while there was plenty of water flowing everywhere (including right down the trail path), I…
I forget the name of this village where this was taken… sorry! I am pretty sure that this is from our excursion to go visit the sea cucumber ranch. As was my habit while in Mada, I woke up early to go see the sunrise,…
