Don’t forget to look up!

Flowering Saguaro in the Sonoran.

Another Saguaro 🌵 shot because y’all only have my other one a single like 😢

Tucson Sunrise.

Sometimes you can almost taste a photograph 😀

An abstract for you today. Anyone want a free print of this?

One of those days when serendipity is strong. Lone fisherman, wearing a non-drab item of clothing, standing in exactly the right spot, face sufficiently hidden, perfect light… I wish someone would buy a print to put on their wall. Anyone? Message me?

Sunset over Shenandoah Valley, from Humpback Rocks

Peony flowering.

Fog. Solitude.

It’s been a crazy last few days with minimal time to shoot, and the shots that I did manage to squeeze in were just meh. This one from this morning worked nicely though.

I’m curious: which one of these two shots of the same scene, 60 seconds apart, do you folks out there on the internet prefer? Tucson, AZ

The compression algorithm is going to mangle this shot, but let’s try anyway: Blue Hour over Rockfish Valley, Virginia, shot from the blue Ridge Parkway.

One of those interesting shots that I thought worked better as monochrome than color. Reddish tulip, but the color version was just too much red, and the detail in the petals got lost to the eye. Not the best framing ever, but I’ve shot worse 😀

One of favorite shots of 2025 so far.

Flowering Dogwood

The neighbor’s Dogwood. A hybrid of the native (to Virginia) white-flowered Dogwood. For some reason the Dogwoods in central Virginia are flowering like crazy this year. Been seeing Dogwoods in places I’ve not seen them before. 📷 Leica SL-3 APO-Vario-Elmarit-SL 90-280mm f/2.8-4 #leica #leicasl3

More Apple blossom. This time with water droplets for a bit more visual depth.

The ferns in the forest have been throwing new fronds for a week or two. Serendipity struck in that I walked past this lot just as the sun backlit them, and I had the correct lens on the camera. 📷 Leica SL-3 APO-Vario-Elmarit-SL 90-280mm f/2.8-4

Finally! Found (a) some color and (b) it was a Leica’s favorite color. And it was in a place I could get to without trespassing 😀 Totally made my day 📷 Leica Q3 43

Eastern Redbud (even though the buds are not very red at all), Cercis canadensis. Blooms are notable for also being cauliflorous as well as ramiflorous

One of my first photographs as an American citizen

Losing hope that the algorithm will connect me with other photographers and Leica photographers, but I’ll keep plugging away. Virginia Spring Beauty popping up everywhere.

That Leica tonality is just 👌 📷 Leica Q3 43 #leicaphotos

The Leica Q3 43 continues to blow my mind. That separation, the micro-contrast, the tonality. Just 👌 📷 Leica Q3 43 #leica

The dog got to pose for me again yesterday 😀. Love the clear separation from the background. Leica cameras are magical in this regard. 📷 Leica SL-3 #leicasl3

I’m one of those people who are excited to get to sleep at night so that I can wake up and drink more coffee 😀 This was the second cup of the day being somewhat photogenic. 📷 Leica Q3 43 #leica

One last shot from Arizona. This scene presented itself as we were driving down the driveway of our last wine tasting stop. 📷 Leica Q3 43 #leica #leicaq343

A few more murals in downtown Tucson. #leica #leicaq343 #tucson

Murals in downtown Tucson, AZ. The Q3 43 continues to blow my mind. The micro-contrast and tonality are exceptional. Absolutely typifies the Leica Look. The only edits done in post were to the light levels. #leica #leicaq343 #leicacamerausa

More dog… #leica #leicaq343
