Sunset Sunday – Upstate New York
A family reunion took me to upstate New York this summer. To be honest, I held little appreciation for my state outside of what I knew. Growing up, New York consisted of Long Island and the city.

Sunset Sunday – A Horse on the Hudson, New York
When I met Mark, he told me his photography carefree ‘salad days’ were behind him. Just as I was getting serious about my own travel pictures and images, he was telling me how difficult it can be to earn a living as a professional photographer. But, now since he shifted some of his focus and […]
