Ice Boats on Mecox Bay

Thursday January 18th I made a last minute check of the ice on Mecox Bay and found the ice boaters out. Most were  getting the last day of ice racing in before the weather warmed up. The racers were excited because the ice was smooth and fast. Trying as many runs as they could before the days light vanished.

Hard Sailing on Mecox Bay

I was out on Mecox Bay last week during the cold snap and came across the ice boat sailors. After getting a few still photos I took some video. It wasn’t my plan to make a video. This is my first attempt at video and is very amateurish. The video can be watched at the link below. I hope you enjoy the video. Still photos will be in tomorrows post.

Montauk

Took a hike at Montauk Point and couldn’t resist taking a few photos. The Lighthouse of course, and a few other iconic Montauk Point images.

Yosemite Valley

June 2017 I had the opportunity to travel to Yosemite Valley. Having studied photography at the San Francisco Art Institute and, meeting Ansel Adams while at the school, it was with great anticipation that I traveled to the Valley. Yosemite Valley is a very spiritual place with majestic mountains all around you. It is easy to see why the valley was such an important muse for Adams and the thousands of photographers to follow him. Below are just a few of the photos from the two galleries added to my website. Enjoy the photos and visit the galleries and if possible make some of your own images of the valley.

Launching Two Sixteen Foot Kayaks

Sunday we launched two sixteen foot kayaks on their maiden voyages. A group of friends came down for the event and we had a good time. My good friend Chris Foster was there and took the photos.
