Showcasing the beauty I see in God's Creation for His glory and the enjoyment of others. Beauty is no accident.

This amazing world with its majestic mountains, delicate flowers, splendid animals, and elegant people is all the work of a master Craftsman. My goal in photography is to capture glimpses of God's glory revealed through His creation and share them with others so they, too, will honor Him. Sometimes, that is simply through the image itself, but I enjoy pairing Scripture and heavenly-minded quotes t

o my photos as well. By profession, I am focused on fulfilling the Great Commission by getting the Gospel to those who have not yet had opportunity to hear it. The Apostle Paul exhorts us in I Corinthians 10:31 to do everything for the glory of God, so my hobby of choice must also reflect that calling. My focus is generally landscape and wildlife, although I do ministry-focused portraits as well.

A week or two ago, I shared an image of a ruby-throated hummingbird (Archilochus colubris) with his throat all lit up and someone commented about how orange it looked. I thought I'd share this one that has a natural falloff of light reflection, from bright to dark.

When it comes to still photography of aircraft, smoke trails carry the weight of storytelling. They leave a sense of where the plane was a few moments ago and how it got to where it is. In this case, they also tell me that Bob Richards is once again defying the laws of physics. Crazy man! Just 5 weeks until we get to do this again! 😎

Tiny vulture? Nope, just an unfortunate cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis) going through a tough molt! 🤪

I maintain a couple of hummingbird feeding stations throughout the summer for my little friends. We have several regulars that are SO fun to watch! However, the gorgeous feathers that gave them their name are only visible at a certain angle. This little guy showed them off to perfection!

Tattered Monarch

I was overjoyed to find a monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus) enjoying the flowers on my new hairy mountain mint (Pycnanthemum pilosum)! I continue to slower build the varieties of native wildflowers in the areas surrounding my home and its great to see the beneficial consequences!

Suspicious Rabbit

An eastern cottontail (Sylvilagus floridanus) giving me a half squint while deciding whether to make an escape or not. I'm pleased to report that it did not and continued munching happily where it was.
