Change can bring about new experiences.  Sometimes that change is as simple as asking questions.       

With my newfound time in hand, I grabbed my camera bag and headed off to a little spot near my house where I was sure to find something to photograph

 We have all been there and had that day where nothing is going to plan. You hit that wall, and all you can think of is packing it up and returning home.

There is one thing in landscape photography that is of the utmost importance. This can be the difference between a print-worthy portfolio image and relegating a failed image to the darkest depths of a hard drive.

There are two sides to landscape photography.

This is an image of a rock, but it is More Than a Rock to me. The mystery of the rock drew me into taking this photograph.

Sometimes, the hardest thing to do is just get out. Grabbing the gear and heading out always feels better, even if it’s a nearby local spot.

It is this process that I have begun to love—a sense of meditation of sorts. To just wander and let my surroundings dictate what my next image will be.
