• Horse Scoobie in Perspective

    $200.00$300.00

    Photographing horses, I've come to find from shooting the small herd on my father in law's farm in the northern Catskills is that if they think I'm bearing gifts (grain), they are all smiles, till they figure out I'm there for something else. In that space, sometimes you can get lucky, as happened with Scoobie, a retired Central Park carriage horse. Shooting from inside the barn, the door and wooden fencing provided a natural framing, the light fell just right. Fortunately, I got the shot, and even more upon processing the image. The geometric fade of the structure added an allure I didn't anticipate, but gratefully welcomed, as it provides perspective to the portrait. An ideal addition to any room, home or office.

    Available titled and framed, in two sizes - 11" x 14" and 16" x 20"

  • Horses Grazing at Sunrise

    $200.00$300.00

    I love shooting at sunrise. So many surprises of light occur in fleeing moments, as the sun rises rapidly in the sky. This was very true on the morning I happened upon my father in law's herd on his small farm in the northern Catskills. The two mare and stallion, thinking I was bearing grain, began to march in my direction, just as the light was dancing on the field. I got my shot, and I knew it. Upon processing, it was begging a black and white treatment, rendering contrasts on the grass more striking, and akin to what I was seeing. This image will warm any room, home or office.

  • Fox Kit

    $200.00$300.00

    There's a rather wild setting in the area beyond our backyard fence that seems to change with every shift of light, day of the week, or time of the year. It's a potpourri of nature doing its thing. This spring, it's also been an ideal home to a pack of fox kits and their mama, who sometimes frolic out in the open. I was determined to capture a scene of direct eye contact between one of the kits and my lens, and luck arrived one afternoon as I leaned over there fence and gently fired off several frames, careful not to disturb my young model. I usually know when I have "the shot," and generally stop right there. That was true with this capture, which looked even better when I brought the image into Photoshop for inspection and processing. There was communication captured between the fox and myself. This image will highlight any room, home or office. Particularly appropriate for a kid's room.

  • Farm Tracks

    $200.00$300.00

    We spent the early months of the pandemic at my father in law's small farm, in the northern Catskill Mountains, where social distancing required little effort. I spent the days wondering the property and driving the surrounding environs, documenting whatever I could in order to keep myself busy and grounded. One morning walking up the tracks left in the dirt by tractor wheels, I was struck by the way light was falling on the lone reed reaching out from the tracks. The isolation and barren state of the land was common to late winter. The reed spoke to the isolation of pandemic restrictions. I choose to process this photograph in black and white to emphasize the feeling I witnessed with my camera. This image will add curiosity and mystery to any room, home or office.

  • Cows at Sunrise

    $200.00$300.00

    One of the pleasures of visits to my father in law’s Fairsing Farm, in the northern Catskill Mountains, is to walk the farm at sunrise, when the gift of light gets lucky. Coming up the road as the sun was rising, casting a magical glow on the calf in the foreground, and rendering the cows in the distance into a haze. Sometimes you need to break lighting rules, and shoot into the sunlight. There’s a lot I like about this photograph, and I’m certain it will provide a peaceful and serene feeling in any room, home or office setting.

  • A Horse Named Bonnie

    $200.00$300.00
    Bonnie is generally a stand-off-ish mare in my father in law’s small herd. While her offspring Dutchess likes the attention of the camera, Bonnie has more interesting things to think about. During this visit to the barn, I caught Bonnie on her way out and shouted “hey Bonnie!,” as I rapidly clicked away. What emerged is a perfectly lit portrait, with Bonnie showing her best side.  A lovely addition to any setting, home or office. Available titled and framed, in two sizes - 11" x 14" and 16" x 20"
