Fall is a great time to take advantage of great photo ops.  Grab your camera and keep it handy.  Fall foliage is a fleeting event.  It changes and one good storm can take it all down.  Have your camera ready and take advantage every day as summer turns to fall.  Autumn is my favorite season.  Smell the crisp air.  Capture some memories.  Share your vision.  Be happy.  Fall photo ops only come once a year – take advantage and enjoy!

Check back soon for some new whale watch video and photos from a recent trip to Cape Cod.  We left from Gloucester, MA and went to Stellwagen bank.  it turned out to be a beautiful day, despite the area having one of the coldest and rainiest seasons in years.  Their summer came late, but it is gorgeous now and whale watching is one of the best vacation activities you can do.  Bring lots of photo and video equipment.  Sometimes the whales practically touch the boat they are so close.  You should be able to get some great video and photos with whatever equipment you have.

Its late spring in the northern hemisphere – the perfect time to take home garden photos.  The gardens are blooming.  There are some great photo opportunities right in your own back (and front) yard.  Humm… someone should invent pictures that capture the fragrance as well as the beauty of these plants and flowers!  In my yard the peonies have bloomed.  Just three cuttings in a vase has filled the home with a beautiful perfume.  Don’t forget to capture their beauty with a timeless photograph.  Take some close-up shots and wide angle views as well.  Also, another fun project is to periodically take a photo of the same plant.  This way you can capture all of the stages of the plant blooming.  Feel free to share your comments and images below.  Happy Gardening!
