Last week I took another trip to Maymont. During this visit, I happened to stumble upon a heron and some ducks in the Japanese Garden. I hope you enjoy the photos! Seeing wild birds in a park like this is truly special.

Just Another Maymont Monday
A week ago I went to Maymont yet again. I got there in the late morning/early afternoon. I was a good time of day to visit the animals. I got really clear glimpses of two of my favorite residents, Little Bear and Finnley the fox! It was a great day!

The James In February
Last month, I took some photographs of the James River in the mid to later afternoon. I was able to get some great pictures in the afternoon light. I hope you like them!
River Long Exposures
I was able to try long exposure photography again a few weeks ago. This year for Christmas I got a new monopod that I got to use for this. I set my camera up on the monopod, attached a variable neutral density filter to my lenses and used my remote shutter. What that all means:Continue reading “River Long Exposures”
