I have just barely had time to download my images from this weekend’s trip to the Vidalia Onion Festival Airshow. It was a great show with the Blue Angels headlining the show. Here’s a quick edit from one of the images from Sunday’s performance. #vidaliaonionfestival #f18…
Fat Albert from the U.S. Navy Blue Angels practice session today at the Vidalia Onion Festival. #VidaliaOnionFestival #fatalbert #c130 #blueangels #superhornet #airshow #aviationphotography #navy #avgeek #aviation #aviationfans #sony #sonya7iii #sonyalpha #bealpha #sigma…
I stopped by the Vidalia Onion Festival Airshow today to watch the U.S. Navy Blue Angels practice. Since I didn't have a pass to get on the airport property, I had to scope the area to find a location with a view. The airport here is completely surrounded by tall pine trees…
Sliding into the Slot: It’s less than two weeks until I go to my first airshow of the year and get to see the Blue Angels. Here you can see slot pilot Lt. Scott Goossens sliding into the slot position after takeoff at last year’s Defenders of Liberty airshow. #blueangels #usnavy…
Solar Prominences: Here's another shot from yesterday's amazing total solar eclipse. This one is with a faster shutter speed where the solar prominences are more visible. What is a solar prominence? According to this article: scientificamerican.com/article/red-do… "A solar prominence is…
Diamond Ring Flares: It was a nail biter for sure as to whether we would have clear skies or not today. It was cloudy as the eclipse started. We had a few second gap here and there between the thick clouds. I could tell from the radar that we were right on the edge of the…

It’s nice to see butterflies roaming around again. I see them often when I’m out on my photography and hiking adventures. Here are a few from over the years. The first one is from the Blue Ridge Parkway, next is from Gibbs Gardens, followed by Fort Mountain State Park, and…
On Thursday I made my second trip of the spring daffodil season to Gibbs Gardens. The west hill has more of the early variety and looked a lot different than two weeks prior. It’s great how they spread out the early, mid, and late blooming varieties so there is color the entire…
A couple of weeks ago I shared an image of the Blue Angels sneak pass from last year with no moisture in the air. Here’s a shot of the same pass from a few years earlier with more moisture in the air. This is Lead Solo Navy CDR Ben "Baxter" Walborn making the sneak pass at the…
I was able to visit Gibbs Gardens last week when we finally had a sunny day after several rainy days. The 20,000,000 daffodils were just starting to bloom and should be even better this week. They have different varieties that bloom for several weeks. #georgia #daffodils…
One of the great drives in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park is the Roaring Ford Rd loop. This is a one-way loop behind Gatlinburg. One of the stops along the way is Ephraim Bales Cabin. The background in this image is the barn at Ephraim Bales Cabin. #tennessee…
Last April I spent a few awesome days in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Here are two sunrise shots from that trip. I’m looking forward to going back again this year. The first was taken from the Fighting Creek Parking lot on Little River Gorge Road just before the…
I recently shared some images from Manhattan on approach to LGA. One of the other views that I enjoy on that same flight is the aerial view of Philadelphia. Sometimes you fly right over and sometimes you are off in the distance a bit. #philadelphia #pennsylvania #cityscape…
I was hoping to visit Gibbs Gardens this morning on opening day, but it is raining and dreary, so I decided to wait. Here are some images from March 2019 that gives an idea of what it's like in spring. #georgia #daffodils #tulips #gibbsgardens #spring #flowers #floral #blooms…
As a photographer, one of the favorite passes from the Blue Angels team is the sneak pass. This is when the lead solo makes a high-speed low sneak pass while the crowd is distracted watching the diamond team. It’s pretty thrilling seeing the F-18 pass just under mach speed. This…
