What a Great Trail

Francis Marion National Forest, SC - The Swamp Fox Trail - A wonderful hike/run through the low country, past old rice plantations and ancient oak trees. Bucket list beautiful.

A wooden bridge covered with pine needles spans across a small body of water, leading into a lush, green forest.

Tallest Mountain in the East

Wonder Woman ran from the base of Mt. Mitchell to the top and back - 23 miles. It wasn’t even a race. She did it for “fun”.

Mountain View

A very determined little pine tree at South Mountains State Park near Morganton, NC

A twisted, gnarled tree growing from rocky terrain, set against a backdrop of distant wooded mountains. The tree's branches curve dramatically, with green needles contrasting against the rough texture of the rocks. The landscape is lush and expansive, conveying a sense of natural beauty and resilience.

Wilmington Crosswalk

One of the reasons I love street photography so much is the way it captures these vanishing moments and the looks on people’s faces that leave you wondering what they were thinking about.

Three people are walking across a street in a city intersection on a cloudy day.

Morning in the Sandhills

Good march morning, y’all. The area I live in is known as the Carolina Sandhills. The undeveloped parts look like this, white sand and pine trees for miles.

A narrow sandy path winds through a sunlit pine forest with tall grasses.

Texas Lake (in North Carolina)

This place is always photogenic. It’s the improbably names Texas Lake, located on Ft. Bragg, NC.

A serene lake reflects the surrounding forest under a pastel-colored sky at sunrise or sunset.

Virginia Lasts Forever

Hiking across a river (The James?) somewhere in Virginia. It took about five weeks to get from the WV line to the border with TN.

The Levitating Jay

I love the way he seems to be levitating. This blue jay and I formed quite a relationship on my deck over the winter, reinforced by his love for peanuts. #birds

A blue jay is captured mid-air as it hops near scattered seeds on a wooden surface.

The Benefactor

This man visits with the homeless who frequent the old downtown area. He sometimes gives them a little cash along with a stern talking to. He’s been doing it for years.

Black and white image of a man walking along a city sidewalk, wearing a fedora hat, leather jacket, and holding a coffee cup. He is near a building wall with spherical light fixtures. In the background, another person is walking away, trees and street elements are visible.

Snow in the Cemetery

A couple of snaps from a snowy visit to the cemetery

A green statue of an angel is covered in snow, with snowflakes gently falling around. The angel's face is tilted upwards, and its wings are visible. The background is blurred, showing trees and a snowy atmosphere. A textured stone relief sculpture depicting a hand with extended three fingers and thumb, partially covered with snow. The high-relief carving is set against a rough, rectangular, stone-like background, with some smaller patches of snow around the edges.
