SMA Chattahoochee near Helen GA On one of my Sunday Morning Adventures I ventured down a dirt road near Helen GA to follow the Chattahoochee River. I found a spot to park near a trail that led down to the river and a rock outcrop. While I was setting up my camera a local resident decided he needed to bathe […] |

First outing with Chamonix 5×12 and Shimoda Backpack Its starting to warm up around here and that always makes me restless to get out and photograph something. Also the new camera, the Chamonix 5×12, needed to be tested in a familiar location. But before I could go anywhere with this almost ULF camera I needed something to carry it in. I had an […] |

Barefoot Falls After being Covid-19 quarantined for about 6 weeks I had finally had enough of home projects and sitting around bored. I convinced my wife that we should go on a Sunday Morning Adventure and take a short hike to some waterfalls a friend had told me about. The drive there was a short 40 minutes, […] |

SMA Shot in the dark Last weekend I went to visit my sister in Tuscaloosa Alabama. On Sunday I had the chance to visit Sloss Furnaces in Birmingham Alabama. Unfortunately a storm was moving in so I had limited time. The exterior of the old plant had nice lighting but the interiors were very dark even close to windows for […] |

Delta 100 and Pyrocat M I shot some 4×5 Delta 100 on a recent Sunday Morning Adventure with fellow NGLFP member Bryan Garris. We traveled North and West to Cherry Log, Georgia to Falls Branch Falls. There wasn’t much rain recently so the falls were a bit bare of water and the lighting was spotty through the trees. The hike […] |

The Scenic Route Photo Opportunity For years I have gone home from work via different routes depending on mood, time, and traffic. I have what I call my scenic route that passes by some vignettes I hope to photograph “one day”. I saw my friend Brian had taken the long way home after a hike in the woods and found […] |

Amicalola and the Stump Not only rivers and waterfalls capture my attention, but stumps and fallen trees seem to be a recurring theme. On one of my Sunday Morning Adventures to Amicalola I took the opposite path from Edge of the World to check on a fishing spot after a heavy rain. I noticed this huge stump was beached […] |

Nancytown Creek Falls Today’s Sunday Morning Adventure took me to up to Mount Airy, Georgia (not where they filmed Andy Griffith’s Mayberry) to NancyTown Creek Falls. I left the house around 6:00 AM and stopped for gas and coffee. Then headed north on mostly 4 lane highways to get to Mount Airy. The sky was striped with orange […] |

I set out at the crack of dawn and drove downtown then west on I-20, to attempt to arrive at Westview Cemetery as soon as the gates open. I arrived a bit […] |
