" The Marsh "


Here are a couple of marsh images that were taken after sunrise on our first day on Jekyll Island. Both were converted using Silver Efex Pro from an HDR image. I really thought I would be wasting my time to try and cross this area, but found out even at high tide it was only a couple inches deep. I am so glad I did because no one else was willing to try, so I have the only imageas from out in this marsh. Hope you enjoy!!

" Two More From The Beach "


These two were done a little later in the sunrise. The first is an HDR done just before sunrise and the second is a little different. It was shot with a faster shutter to stop the shrimp boat. Hope you enjoy!!

" Sunrise "


Never forget to turn around during sunrise. As beautiful as the sunrise on the driftwood, the trees behind me were equally as beautiful. Hope you enjoy!!

" Jekyll Island-Day Two "


Here are a couple of images made at Driftwood Beach on the second morning of our workshop. It was fairly cild and a little bit windy, but the images were great. We met at the parking lot at 5:15 AM, and started shooting at about 5:30. The secret is to be there long before sunrise and stay until just after when the light gets too harsh. Hope you enjoy!!

" Jekyll Island "







The last of the windy, dreary day one of the workshop. Still all in all a great afternoon for shooting. The light was soft and even and great for beach, dunes and marshes. Hope you enjoy!!

" Abandoned Piano "

What a shame, left with no one to play with. I am fascinated by how many pianos I have seen in abandoned homes. I am guessing around 40% have a piano in some state in them. I have photographed at least 15 or 20 of them. Hope you enjoy!!

" Bedroom Light 2 "

This is an image that I reshot on my way to my Jekyll Island Fall Workshop. I took the same image last November on my way to take down my show in Brunswick, GA., so I decided to reshoot this November on my way down. The image now is much brighter and has a little more contrast, I love the light. Hope you enjoy!!

" Ocmulgee River Bridge "

This image was taken on the way back from my Jekyll Island Fall Workshop. This is a beautiful bridge and very old. I actually saw it on the way down and just didn't have time to stop. The water was a little high, so I couldn't get the view I wanted. Images from the workshop to follow in the coming days.

We had a great time and came back with some amazing images. The weather was unreal with highs in the 70's and lows in the 50's. I only had 3 participants, but I only had room for 5. A great time had by all. Hope you can join us for a later workshop.
