Sunset at Dancing Ledges, Dorset...
The tide was on the way in when i visited this spot which meant the classic shot of the swimming pool wasn't really working, so i moseyed round and this simple composition kinda worked for me - this was one of the last shots i got because the tide surged right after this, resulting with me packing my gear with sea water lapping round my feet 'n climbing up the exit ledges with waves chasing me - fun evening :-D

Captured this past fall while leading my annual West Virginia Fall Photo Tour. If you want to read more about this location and the making of the image, you'll have to get my newest eBook, West Virginia: Adventures in Light, available later this month.
Springtime and fall are the best times to capture images at the Ledges in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. With the bare trees, the ledges are exposed in evening light. The trail is a rare beautiful site which makes for a fun and exciting hike.
Enjoy the outdoors :)
There are lots of ledges on this rocky coastline some of which are used for nesting or roosting by either guillemots or razorbills. These are razorbills. Probably roosting for the last few days before they head out to sea for the winter.

Two powerful steam vents impress hikers descending into Porcelain Basin at Norris Geyser Basin: Ledge and Valentine Geysers. This is looking back from toward the descent trail into Porcelain Basin. Ledge is a powerful geyser but is dormant most of the time, usually acting as a noisy fumarole.
Water spilling into the 'swimming pool' on Dancing Ledge. The shelf around here is one of the slippiest surfaces I've ever photographed on particularly when you're wearing wellies. It's also difficult to clamber down to the ledge, it's more of an abseil actually. A lovely location though which is usually worth all the difficulties.
The trail wound along the base of the ledges. There was a slope to the downhill side but it didn't seem dangerous while I was walking along the trail. The trail itself has lots of rocks and tree roots as one would expect from the surrounding terrain. But... every turn of the trail showed a different view of rocks and trees. I definitely enjoyed this hike.
In honor of the new Beauty and the Beast movie trailer (which looks awesome by the way) I figured I'd post up one of my Beauty and the Beast related shots from the Flower & Garden Festival. For this particular shot I actually had the tripod fully extended on the edge of the fountain. I shot with the Nikon 70-200 2.8. I wanted to get a straight on shot like this but I didn't really want the fountain in it but I did want all of the great background buildings and Eiffel tower. Even with the tripod on the ledge and fully extended I did get just a bit of the fountain water spraying into the frame. I also had to make a compromise and really push Belle and the Beast to the bottom edge of the frame but I think it ultimately works for this shot because of how the background fills the frame vertically.

Red Canyon hoodoos are unique in appearance and organization from those of nearby Bryce Canyon and Cedar Breaks. In Red Canyon the numerous red hoodoos line the road instead of filling an amphitheater. Here is a look at some hoodoos along the Pink Ledges Trail.
Super processed view from the Ledge to be able to see the foreground and the sky. A pretty dark sky when I got up there.
Catching the ledges at Kimmeridge at just the right water level is key to getting the shot you want. Last week I headed there for sunrise, and left the main bay behind me as I headed east past Clavell Pier.
A 15 minute walk takes you to Yellow Ledge. The tide was high but falling, which meant no risk of being cut off or having the camera washed away!! I took a whole bunch of shots with different exposures, but I really liked this one which showed the movement in the water just right.
Join me this coming May for my upcoming Jurassic Coast Tour in Dorset where you will be shown all the best locations and in the right conditions to capture shots like this and much more.

This trek, I was taken by another scene of fracturing granite next to the Switzerland Trail RR grade in flat light. The grade was already curving again and missed this spot, if not intentionally. It's amazing how scrub finds spots to grow. Again lichens are already growing on this granite, This fractured rock is natural and was not cast aside while grading the railroad. It is far older than the hundred plus years when graded. That certainly relates how long the Rockies have been deteriorating. It's been there for eons. This spot is part way between Gold Hill Station and the Puzzler on the grade chart.
The real Rockledge is now a side track on Hwy #7 on the way from Allenspark to Copeland, Wild Basin. It used to be the original route when originally engineered to follow contours of terrain on the route. There are protected aspen over in the gulley and may be green when this was taken.
Some wind was blowing on my way up Gold Hill Road but today's my shot at fall colors. I got hit by monster snow flakes last year as I headed west from town but it eased when I got to Gold Hill Station. This year was my last shot at color up here. Afterward, I plunged into an aspen grove along the Colorado & Northwestern railroad grade toward Ward mining camp.
It seems like a well traveled mountain road but with little noticeable grade. In fact, the grade gained only 180 feet over the distance to Ward. That's less than one-hundredth percent grade. The D&RG had a 4% grade west of Denver, where they started to gain serious elevation. Well... the grade on most of this route is pretty squirrely and had to be narrow gauge to make the curves. One of the designers admitted at least one curve was too tight for the engines on order. They simply changed the curve labels on the surveys ever so slightly. Apparently, the engine design had that much built in. That's why the inner drivers were "blind" or without flanges.
Portions can be driven in high-centered (not necessarily 4WD, it's almost level). Get out and walk for an encompassing experience and a lot of shots. Well above here, the grade is cut off by the Sawmill road. Find it on Google maps - Ward, CO then S-E. Zoom in, the grade is marked on Google maps. Take the camera, a snack and hydration. You need the exercise, the reason for my excursions. Much is missed from the vehicle; park it in a handy spot. On such a trek on the Switzerland Trail, it is impossible to get lost; follow the grade! You'll find a lot of scenes with the Rockies in the backdrop.
It's easy to follow the grade on Google Maps and easier when on the ground. It is pretty darn easy to see the RR grade from this shot. The color was somewhat short of peak but it may not look like it while in the depths. The autumn leaves look like mosaic tile art. Indian Peaks Wilderness Area is the background... at least intil Ryan Zinke sells it off to big money interests.

Dustin 'Psycho Stick' Mallory is so fun to watch. He just kills. This one, he makes ollieing down this set and over the rail seem easy.
My friend Austin has the video of it here. I'm in the white shirt.
