Thanks to my iPhone 13 Pro, I am now always ready with a camera, when a likely subject comes into view. It's fun to capture scenes that seem to just have been waiting for me to come along and capture them. I got this one at my local outlet mall. The display of old sewing …

We live in Western Washington, but one of my favorite environments has always been rural Eastern Washington. On this side of the Cascades, it's often wet and rainy, with gray cloudy skies for most of the fall and winter. Eastern Washington is much drier, with brown, rolling hills. Eastern Washington grows wheat, hops, and, increasingly, …

Let There Be Light. And there was light. There is a reason God created light first. Nothing lives totally without light, and photographers care most about how a subject is lighted. These two trees were lighted from below. Sometimes you just get lucky, as I was one evening when we arrived home from a short …

My most common subject is landscapes, with a preference for rolling hills, mountains, and water. Now, the last week of February, we flew down to Indian Wells, California, for a Hillsdale College National Leadership Seminar, …

I spend a lot of time alone these days, and I have no problem with that. I get up early, long before my husband, and get ready to go to work. But first, I have to satisfy the furry animal who waits outside the bedroom door, meowing for her breakfast. In the evenings, when Hubby …

I just love what I can do with the photos I take with my iPhone 13 Pro's cameras. It's with me wherever I go, so I'm always ready to spot unexpected photo ops. And post-production on my Mac is really easy, too. Reflections and shadows have always been some of my favorite subjects, and I …
