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…

Another nudibranch that I got to add to my species list while I was in Andava. Unfortunately, my flash cable had managed to come unattached on the boat ride out to this dive (our final dive for the expedition) so I wasn’t getting very good…
I got plenty of opportunities to find scorpions in Madagascar… especially when we were doing the Spider Tortoise survey – I think I found maybe six or seven by just turning over dead logs.
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…
One of the guides spotted this little guy on one of our park hikes. Very cool gecko.
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…
I recently completed some open water dives in Summersville Lake, WV for a drysuit course I was taking. At the same time, I took my new MacroMateMini filter for my GoPro and captured some video of some tiny fish. Someone said the one with the…
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,…
Ok – I rarely take photos of people, I never felt I was very good at it. However, every once in a while I get a situation that works well for me to do so and I get some lucky shots that work…. Dupont is…
