About This Website

This blog is intended to showcase my pictures or those of other photographers who have moved beyond the pretty picture and for whom photography is more than entertainment - photography that aims at being true, not at being beautiful because what is true is most often beautiful..

Here in the Adirondacks we are experiencing some grand autumn weather. Foliage is at 50-60% in some locations. In some ways it's hard to believe that we are approaching the end of September.

That said, I have to get out and enjoy it, so here are a couple things to think about:

In photography, the two words I like most are "simplicity" and "authenticity". I try to see things with authenticity, in natural manner : no cheating in order to show things as they are. This is the way in which I would like to see things. My ideal point of view. ~ Yann Arthus Bertrand

and:

...I felt that photography ought to start with and remain faithful to the appearance of the world, and in so doing record contradictions. The greatest pictures would then... find wholeness in the torn world. ~ Robert Adams
