Fall color was as good as it gets this year in many Adirondack Park locations. The colors were peak from valley floor to summits during our 10/4 High Peaks area photo tour and the light and clouds added some unique photo ops in the Keene area.

It’s 09:00 in here. Every morning, Ukrainians take a moment to pay their respects, honoring fallen heroes. If you can, I warmly invite you to join us. 1 min for Ukraine, 1 min for heroes. Thank you.

We had a wonderful mix of light along with great fall foliage during the Sunday afternoon photo tour in the High Peaks region. I caught this photo of the reflections at Lower Cascade Lake at 5:26 PM as the sun came out from behind a line of clouds.

Morning light over Elk Lake on Thursday morning, 10/1/26. Clouds capped the highest mountains and filled the sky overhead with the golden glow of the rising sun... with perfect reflections creating a surreal morning scene.

Moonlight and mist... My first post from the Elk Lake Lodge after spending a wonderful week there with a fabulous group. We had two amazing mornings of light, mist, fall colors, and clouds. I photographed this scene at 5:40 AM on Wed morning 9/30.

I am in a weird mood today. Maybe depressed. Just sick of cruelty and lies and bombings of innocent people. I had all my funny posts ready and recipes ready to go but now doesn’t feel like the right time for some reason. Maybe later.

We’re being run by an unhinged, corrupt egomaniac who thinks he’s a king and has no use for the constitution. And most of the media still just covers it like it’s normal.

I am tired of people saying we can’t win in front of the Supreme Court. I’m annoyed by those who say my firm is too partisan to be effective. Today we won a huge redistricting fight before SCOTUS and a ballot access case before the Nebraska Supreme Court. The lesson: When we fight we win.

Stars, satellites, planes and Perseid meteors... Early morning on Aug 12 at the Elk Lake Lodge (with permission) - the NE sky from 2:36 to 4:30 AM. A wonderful night as loons called back and forth. Planes & satellites are longer lasting streaks, while a meteor streak is a flash on the screen

First light this morning near the Elk Lake Lodge... The stars were tracking across the sky in this 7 minute dawn light exposure as the soft warm pastel colors of dawn glowed on the horizon and reflected on the lake water.

On Saturday morning 8/1/26, the cirrus clouds in the sky above the High Peaks glowed with soft warm pastel tones as they caught the early rays of the rising sun. This was captured at 5:41AM.
