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.

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 was also taken at Myrtle Beach when i was on vacation in 2019. This is an
