This is a picture from my second visit to Los Osos Oaks State Natural Reserve--I know it sounds substantial, but this place is right off Los Osos Valley Rd, and one must keep an eye out otherwise it will go unnoticed! All that can be seen from the road is a small parking lot, but this tiny park is a photographic gem, with its groves of ancient Coast Live Oak trees, lush greenery... and deer ticks!
My sister helped find this particular scene. One of the challenges of shooting in this park is that there is a substantial density of information (which is right up my alley), and some people find it difficult to compose an image amongst the seemingly overflowing growth and intermingling oaks. I'll admit, it does take a bit of strolling around before potential scenes develop, and I bet a composition card would assist (although I have yet to use one myself).

Last week I made an early morning trip to Rock House, in the Hocking Hills. This was the first time I'd been there during the cold season, and I'm so glad I made the trip. Conditions were about 30 degrees colder than I would have liked, but the light snow covering frozen to the trees was a highlight to the morning.
I made a video about the trip you can watch here:

I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. I did not wish to live what was not life, living is so dear; nor did I wish to practise resignation, unless it was quite necessary. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life, to live so sturdily and Spartan-like as to put to rout all that was not life, to cut a broad swath and shave close, to drive life into a corner, and reduce it to its lowest terms, and, if it proved to be mean, why then to get the whole and genuine meanness of it, and publish its meanness to the world; or if it were sublime, to know it by experience, and be able to give a true account of it in my next excursion.

Photographs made while exploring and documenting Ohio’s State Nature Preserve system. Some of the only places left in the state where nature remains uninterrupted. These lands are underappreciated, underfunded, but rich with a subtle beauty that I revere with my view camera.

One of my favorite places in all of the South to go visit is Savannah, GA. With each trip, I find myself concentrating more and more on the presence of those gorgeous live oaks so carefully preserved throughout it's downtown area.
One afternoon while Lauren was paying a visit to the Blick Art Materials, I took the 8x10 for an exploratory visit downtown. Every few blocks, there's a new square with it's own personality and stunning live oaks. Greene square had a lesser concentration of live oaks than some others, so a slightly longer focal length and closer working distance was needed to convey the same feeling.

With the bulk of my work from the Hocking Hills region complete, I currently find myself between two large photographic projects. In the meantime, here are some infrared photographs that haven't really had their own dedicated project, but I really love the look of IR.
Once in a while when the weather is nice and the foliage is green, my friend Amanda and I will venture out to one of Ohio's photogenic cemeteries. Today's photo is from the Grandview Cemetery in Chillicothe, OH.
