Landscape & Travel Photography
The other day I was flying back home to Chicago from a short trip to Raleigh, NC. As we approached the city from the east, all I could see below me was a white cloud carpet. However, as I always do when flying into Chicago, I pulled out my new Canon G7x camera to see …
In celebration of its 25th anniversary, Hubble has revisited the famous “Pillars of Creation”, providing astronomers with a sharper and wider view than ever before. The pillars (a region of the Eagle Nebula, or M16) have been photographed in near-infrared light as well as visible light. The infrared view transforms the pillars into eerie, wispy …
This week, GoPro chose one of my images as their Photo of the Day! That’s exciting because it gives me additional exposure online, and because GoPro is well known for adventure seekers (that’s me!). This was fun to shoot for obvious reasons. Flying my Airborne XT912 trike (powered hang glider) around Illinois is so freeing, …

I’ve been trying to go through my collection of images to add new work to the site. The first batch in that effort is a bunch of macro photos of Butterflies and other Bugs, as well as Flower macros and other Close-Up Stuff. I’ll be adding much more to each of those galleries shortly. Here’s …
Spring has sprung all around us, a great time to break out the camera and take some pictures. In my case, it gives me a chance to prove my new Canon 5D Mark III was worth the money. I purchased the kit with the EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM lens to replace my trusty …
It seems photos made into fractals is somewhat popular lately.. it’s a pretty contemporary look, modern, edgy, could be hot or cold. It’ll probably get overdone, as everything eventually is (HDR anyone?). But I figured I’d play around with a few of my photos to see what I come up with. This first one is …
