Hello to all my friends, family, and random followers who have been kind enough to humor my photography hobby and increasingly legitimate side gig.

As everyone knows, photography is a perfectly reasonable and affordable pastime that definitely does not involve constantly wanting another lens, tripod, filter, print, or piece of equipment.

To help support this completely healthy addiction, I’ve opened an online fine art gallery featuring some of my favorite landscapes, wildlife, night-sky images, and other photographs:

https://galleries.eaglesperchphotography.com/art

First-time customers can receive 15% off their entire purchase with the welcome offer available through the gallery.

Please take a look. Even if you are not currently in the market for art, sharing the link with someone who might enjoy my work would mean a great deal to me.

Thank you for continuing to encourage me to get outside, look around, and spend irresponsible amounts of money on camera equipment.

- Russell, also known in certain circles as Dr. Brunet or “Doc”

My father’s favorite pastime was working in his garden. He grew vegetables—peppers, tomatoes, squash, cucumbers, and more—and he also grew the most fragrant roses in the neighborhood. When he left us, he went out breathing the scent of one of those roses.

We’ve been left with a gift that keeps giving. When I cut a rose and bring it to my office, everyone stops to take in its fragrance.

He was also proud of his honey bees. They move through the neighborhood, pollinating the flowers and gardens of Oak Grove. Now, without their keeper, they continue their work. I hope to find someone to tend to them so they can keep spreading life through Monterey.

Sometimes it feels like he’s still there.

Bees drawn to the scent
A fragrance fills the garden
His honey awaits

Chasing light across Corral de Tierra—proof you don’t have to go far to find something majestic… just a little way down the road. Grateful to the homeowners for access—keeping you anonymous for your privacy.

Golden Gate Bridge after dark.

Spent the evening in the Marin headlands taking some long exposures of the bridge. Calm night, cool air, and the steady stream of headlights turning into ribbons of light across the bay.

I’ve realized that San Francisco is absolutely beautiful…

especially when admired from a comfortable distance.

My nephew Daniel left us in June 2023. One year later, I stood beneath the Big Sur sky in one of his favorite places — Garrapata. He loved nature — the kind of quiet that makes you look up and remember how small and connected we are. The Milky Way stretched overhead, and for a moment, it felt like the universe was holding him.

For Daniel:

You left us too soon
The universe called you home
Your aura remains
