After the storm - Badlands
Badlands National Park in South Dakota after a storm had moved through the area.
Shade Tree - Badlands
Throughout the Badlands of South Dakota, you would have a hard time finding shade. When you do, it is often in the form of a single tree standing tall in the middle of a wind swept field.

Walk on the beach
This image of the gull was taken at Bar Island Maine. While the tide is out, we were able to walk across the land bridge to the island. The gulls were also taking advantage of the low tide to hund for food.
Evening Fog
During a trip to Chapman State Park in Clarendon, PA I found myself walking near the lake during sunset. As the fog started to roll in, I found myself standing there with my camera, and what I thought was the wrong lens. I had my Tamron 150-600mm lens which I typically reserve for wildlife photography on my Canon 5D Mark IV. I ended up using that lens with a very high ISO to capture this mysterious and dramatic image.
Forest Fog
This image was captured at Chapman State Park in Pennsylvania. The sun was quickly setting and I was running out of light. I only had my Tamron Sp 150-600MM f/5-6.3 Di VC USD lens attached to my Canon 5D Mk IV. This is absolutely not a landscape lens. I managed to get this shot as the sun completely dissapeared behind the mountains. This image won 1st place in the 2018 Forest Park Nature Center photo contest for the landscape category.
1955 Ford - Morning Fog
This is not my usual photography subject, but I saw this truck while at Kinzua State Park in Pennsylvania and immediately had this image in mind. The morning was foggy and the blue of the truck was the standing out against the orange glow of the fog. The image was edited in Photoshop to remove the other colors from the scene.
Stand Out
While hiking at Marilla Reservoir in Bradford, PA during a foggy morning sunrise I noticed this solo tree across the lake. The golden leaves were such a strong contrast against the dark green evergreens.
Fort Zachary Taylor
Cannon balls stacked against the side of Fort Zachary Taylor. The wall has started to show its age with the bricks showing through.

Devils Tower National Monument
Anyone that has been to Devils Tower can tell you that the experience is one that cannot be replicated. This was one of the most serene and spiritual places I have ever visited or photographed. If you visit, I highly recommend camping onsite so that you can experience the sunrise and sunset.
Bighorn Sheep - Badlands National Park
This image was captured in Badlands National park in South Dakota. This bighorn sheep was walking next the road and I decided to capture a photo of it. When I got out of the vehicle, it stopped to eat a bit.
