No kayaking needed!


On Friday April 17, 2015, I ventured out to the Duke Forest with the mastermind Al Densiback to photograph the Duke forest this Spring. We stumbled upon 2 northern water snakes and also we got to handle a queen snake a different type of water snake. We also spotted many different spiders along  the trail that lead us to the river.


We explored the area with different compositions for photographs and had a fun time doing it.

We also went to the Mason Land Preseve in Chapel Hill. In the Mason Land Preserve it has begun to change to green all over the place.

.

Sometimes you have to find the perfect place to take photos in the spring. Some of which include local ponds, streams.

Some of my favorite places I like to go in the spring to photograph are Lake Gaston, Jordan Lake, Mason Land Preserve, Botanical Gardens, Bolin Creek, Duke Gardens and Duke Forest.


Some places I recommend you take photos in this weather , include the Duke Forest, Eno River, Duke Gardens, Bolin Creek, Mason Land Preserve, Neuse River and many more places to visit and experience the enjoyment of photographing in the spring.

Step into Nature # 10

 Welcome back to another post on my blog for this weeks Step into Nature. Let's see what adventures of the post we are going to do for this weeks Step into Nature. This a Tri- Colored Heron, Which I photographed at Pickney Wildlife Refuge while I was on vacation way back in Hilton Head. The Tri- Colored Herons a very cool waterfowl to photograph and they have different color variants compared to the Great Blue Herons found in Central North Carolina, where I live. If you have a chance to find TriColor Herons you should photograph them and they are just like the other waterfowl that can be found in central North Carolina . This is a Jellyfish, which I photographed at Myrtle Beach during sunset conditions. The photograph came out really cool. Jelly Fish are very interesting subjects to photograph at local beaches.  I decided to use the jelly fish as my subject for this photograph  during sunset conditions. This was also taken at Myrtle Beach when i was on vacation in 2019. T...

Just a little snow

Hey hey it Al back with a snow pictures from earlier today which I used My iPhone XR for these photographs of the snow , since I did not use my camera for these shots. We were supposed to get 1-3 inches of snow accumulation in this area but we only ended up with a dusting of snow.  Some schools in the area of central North Carolina either did remote learning, delayed openings or closed for the day which one school system , did which was Chapel Hill Carrboro City schools. Even though, this was the only snow storm that Some snow stuck to the ground some did not stick to the ground due to the rain before that. In this shot, I did with the snow I used the snow as foreground element and used the remaining of the background to be blurred out to make an interesting photograph that came out really cool for this shot. I hope we might get another snow storm in February this year that might produce more snow and I can take even more pictures of it if is possible to happen this year in North C...
