I would love to spend some time out west to photograph the diverse wildlife that lives there.

Its been a long time

Well its been quite some time since I decided to write on my blog, I've been distracted with many things lately family, work, dreams, ambitions, and everything else. I sit back a lot and always think about what it would be like to be one of the great photographers in the world that actually live the dream traveling the world and creating beautiful images.
    Sometimes I wonder what sets me apart from every other photographer out there, is it my work is not good enough, is it I don't have the right equipment, or maybe I just haven't been able to put the time in to do what I love doing. Its very hard I work 2nd shift job which requires me to work most Saturdays so I'm always working mostly 6 days a week giving me one day off that one day I have to choose to either go out and shoot or spend time with my family. And I know it sounds bad and I love spending time with my family but deep inside my soul I really want to be out there in the woods with nature all by myself just enjoying the peacefulness and scenery, shooting nature.
Its just the love of the outdoors that calls to me.
I'm not sure who reads my blogs but maybe some of you remember me talking about more or less going on some adventures, well I never got a kayak. But I did have a chance to go to the Adirondacks with my family for a couple days during the summer. I took the opportunity to climb/ hike my first mountain on the 46r list which was Cascade Mountain at 4098ft. It was one of the most rewarding things I have dome for myself. The view was exceptional from the summit, I could see many of the high peaks along with a distant view of a range off in the distance in Vermont. I do plan to climb all of the 46 High Peaks in the Adirondacks, its a physical, and photography goal I have. So, one down 45 more to go. Here are some images I took while atop of Cascade, and Whiteface Mountain.
