I’ve just updated the galleries (mostly by culling old photos that weren’t up to my current standards) and changed the way the gallery system works behind the scenes. If you spot any problems, please let me know! As always, thanks for visiting! – Jack
The ArtWalk was much quieter today, with not nearly as many people coming through as did last night – I think the weather was just too nice! We did still see a fair number of people, and I had several nice conversations (hi, Mary & Sarah!). All in all, another good ArtWalk! Many thanks to…

At long last, after 2 extensions to the voting period, the Outdoor Photographer Magazine’s 2nd Annual Nature’s Colors photo contest has come to a close! One of my images, Autumn Falls At Pewit’s Nest 9454-2 (shown below), was a finalist in the contest and in fact made it to the top 20 in the People’s…
