      This site will give you a tour into the scenics and wildlife of the Allegheny National Forest region of Northwest Pennsylvania and beyond. I've been hiking the hills and valleys of the area for over thirty years, capturing the beauty of the area on film. Take a look through the photo galleries to see some of the many images that I have seen through the lens of my camera. I hope you enjoy them.

It's hard to believe 2010 is over already. In my nature photography started very slow and ended with one of my best years ever. I believe I slowed down a bit and thought about some of the basic rules of photography. These rules I refer to are just the simple things you learn when you pick up any "how to" magazine or instruction book of a new camera. The newer cameras do it all, and I mean it all. The trick is to just read, and then read some more. Then one day when you are out shooting, whether it is a landscape, bird or maybe a deer, you will look down at your camera and automatically know what settings are best for the shot.

In 2010 I got my "best" Eagle, Elk, Hummingbird, Fox, Deer and maybe even some great scenic shots. Being in the right place at the right time sure helped, but a quick check of my camera proved invaluable. I actually watched my lighting, my composition (very important), and my backgrounds. Things I've been telling people for years, but was guilty of not listing to my own advice! In 2010 it all came together and really worked!

How does one top a great year? Continue reading and practicing what you read. I'm wondering if I can top last year, but you know what? That's a great goal to work towards in the coming year, to do even better.

Have a great year in photography in 2011. Read, read and read!!! It pays off.
