Cane Creek offered a couple different spots that I really liked. This one was just a little bit down the way but I liked how the water came down the right and left sides at different paces.

SMOOTH CREEK
This photo was taken in the same spot as the video I posted last week. I love the look of the smooth water caused by dragging out the shutter.

MONTGOMERY BELL STATE PARK CREEK
This was a cool, crisp Spring morning. The creek was flowing quickly following a night of steady rain. Clouds hung around in the air, but spared me any additional rain. I enjoyed sitting next to the creek, listening to the birds call to each other. In my mind they were sharing the happenings of a wild Friday night of partying. In reality, they were probably just letting each other know about the dumb human sitting below them.
CANE CREEK RELAXING VIDEO
This was a cool but humid summer morning at Cane Creek. The cloud cover helped to keep the temperature relatively low and allowed for me to capture the deep colors of the creek.
GREAT BLUE HERON AT RADNOR LAKE STATE PARK
This Blue Heron was nice enough to stand near perfectly still for me while I captured this image. I hung around and waited for a bit while the sun sank below the horizon hoping to capture this Heron grab some dinner. But alas, it stayed pretty much still until it was time for me to head out.

EARLY MORNING ON THE DUCK RIVER
This video is perfect for sleeping, relaxing or studying. This portion of the Duck River is very shallow and comes to a narrow section which makes for a wonderful spot to relax and listen to the sounds of the river and birds in the surrounding trees.
GREAT EGRET DINNER
This beautiful Great Egret patiently stalked around this cove of Bledsoe Creek State Park looking for dinner. She (I actually have no idea if it’s a he or she) turned out to be quite the prolific hunter capturing two fish during the 30 mins or so that I spent with her.
Great Egret eating a fish as on an early summer evening.
This is the second catch of the evening for this Great Egret.
Rutledge Falls 4K Video
Rutledge Falls is a beautiful and peaceful place located just an hour from Nashville. The hike is short and relatively easy from the parking lot. Five minutes and a few slick rocks later you are down the trail and face to face with a rapidly flowing waterfall.
This was a cool, early spring morning. It rained for much of the previous day and the falls were running well. It's incredible how sitting next to this falling water instantly relaxes you.
SINKING BELOW THE HORIZON
If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times. The sun sinking below the horizon will forever be my favorite moment in photography.

Chokoloskee, Florida
CHOKOLOSKEE SUNSET
I spent a lot of time fishing around Chokoloskee as a kid. I have a ton of great memories of the area.
I hadn’t been back in over 20 years until this past February when I went back for a night sky program that was being put on by the National Parks Service.
While I waited for night to fall, I captured a sunset time-lapse. The clouds didn’t cooperate but it was still fun to be back in a place that had such a large impact on my childhood.
