This is one of my favorite shots from Athens…the rising sun reflected off of the side of the tower which created some really interesting light.

Microburst
We had a lot of thunderstorms yesterday and after they cleared the area, the sun came out. I was able to get an interesting shot of a microburst off in the distance, with the sun illuminating the rain and some of the clouds. Mother Nature is truly dramatic.

Sunset Over Foggy Mountains
There is nothing like the Appalachians after a heavy rain. The fog rises slowly from the numerous valleys, clinging to the trees and the tops of the mountains. On this particular day, the clouds thinned enough to let the setting sun illuminate the sky, creating an exceptional opportunity.
Baby Alligators on a Log
I’m fortunate that my current digital textbook project is taking me to some of the most beautiful areas of Georgia. I am in the process of visiting many of the state parks, and while there I am able to spend a lot of time with the interpretive rangers, often getting some behind-the-scenes tours. Michael Ellis […]

Cows Under a Stormy Sky
I have taken quite a few photos in the mountains over the years, and you will see cows in a lot of them. Our cabin overlooks a lot of pastureland with grazing cattle, so they are the unwilling subjects of many shots. This is one of them.

Rainy Day in the Mountains
One nice thing about the mountains is that they are beautiful ALL of the time, regardless of the season or the weather. For instance, after a heavy thunderstorm in the summer, fog can be seen rising up from the many peaks and valleys of the Appalachians. It is beautiful and serene.
Old Tractor
Old machinery can be very photogenic, due to the weathering and wear from years or decades of service. This old tractor was sitting in a field about 1/2 a mile away from me, but drone photography allows for a freedom that has never before been realized among the photographic world.
Downtown Athens Sunset
Downtown Athens, GA is a gem in the South. A hotbed of music and culture, it attracts creatives from all over the world. On this hot summer day I took several bracketed exposures, but this one turned out the best. Auto Exposure Bracketed 5 images to create this.
