This new collection, along with some new black & white work will join my Elements of Nature series of new and old. Both </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #eeeeee;"><a href="http://www.gohawaii.com/maui">Maui</a></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #eeeeee;"> and <a href="http://www.kauaiexplorer.com/">Kauai</a>, in my opinion, have some of the most amazing beaches and terrain in the world. I think I was able to capture this beauty at both sunrise and sunset on my last trip back in January. After months of photo selection, editing and cropping I sent the photos over to my friend Keith at <a href="http://www.glenrockdigitalphoto.com/grdp/">Glen Rock Digital Photo in Glen Rock, NJ</a> last week. He called me yesterday to let me know he had the large format prints ready. <a href="http://www.glenrockdigitalphoto.com/grdp/">Keith</a> does some amazing work and when I got down to his shop I was totally taken back when he showed me my new prints. I just dropped them off to Connie over at the Village Frame shop in Suffern, NY. I can't wait to see the final product after Connie works her magic. I'll have more than 15 new prints on display as well as many others in all sizes in print bins at the upcoming show. </span></div></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #eeeeee;">You're probably saying "alright, alright so when is the show!?" The answer is... Ready?? Saturday, November 26, of Thanksgiving weekend from 5 - 9pm at my <a href="http://www.mmacdefense.com/">Martial Arts</a> School/Gallery in Suffern (see the post card below). As always there will be plenty of wine, snacks and live music. </span></div></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #eeeeee;">My goal through my work is to continue to inspire people to jump out of their chair and travel our beautiful planet to experience the natural and adventurous world around them. Whether that journey is to a far away distant place or right in your own backyard, natural beauty is all around us. All we have to do is just become aware of it. Next time you drive to and from work take a moment look at the sky, look at the sunrise or sunset, look at how the clouds dance around and form all kinds of incredible shapes, look at the colors in the landscape around you. I promise you'll be amazed if you keep your mind open and try to experience the moment without letting the crazy world distract you. Doing this will give you a sense of calmness and help you to not "sweat" the small stuff in life.</span></div></div><div style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

The weather wasn't the greatest for photography but I was able to squeeze out a couple of good shots. I'm really liking the way some of the black and white shots turned out and just might have to dedicate a section of my print gallery to black and white prints. I also included a shot of the athletes from <a href="http://www.ridgewoodtriathlete.com/">Ridgewood Triathlete</a>, they had a training camp going on while we were up there. What a great group of coaches and athletes!!! If you're into or want to start training for endurance sports their the people to hook up with in NY/NJ. The photo In this blog was taken after their ride to the top of <a href="http://www.whitefaceregion.com/?gclid=CNXvrr611qoCFYJx4Aody2J29A">Whiteface Mountain.</a> Hope you enjoy the photos. </span></div><br />

It's not how much you have or are worth, it's what you do with you have. Happiness comes from within and not from a possession. Quality is what makes one smile from within when one becomes content and finds happiness in the simple things in life. I met many people this past week on the beautiful island of Kauai who truly love their lives that consist of very little. For me experiencing what I photoed below is what brings true happiness for me. Take away what little money I have and what little I own I will still find joy in what I experience when I do something as simple as hiking in nature.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">The photo is a I look into the wettest spot in the world <a href="http://www.summitpost.org/blue-hole/156476">"The Blue Hole"</a>. Sue & I Hiked 60 plus minutes through a slippery stream bed, bamboo forest and mud that was knee deep to get this shot. Our guide was Eric from <a href="http://www.hikekauaiwithme.com/index.html">Hike Kauai with me</a> who is a hiking guide and expert on Kauai's terrain and landscape. I'm obsessed with this spot and next time will be planning and overnight trip all the way in which puts you right at the wall and under 3000 foot plus waterfalls.

Heading to <a href="http://www.co.maui.hi.us/">Maui </a>first to run the <a href="http://www.mauimarathonhawaii.com/course_half_marathon.php">Maui Half Marathon</a> and then on to <a href="http://www.kauaidiscovery.com/"> Kauai</a>. <a href="http://www.gohawaii.com/kauai/guidebook/topics/hiking-on-kauai">Kauai </a>is one of my favorite places it's populated with down to earth people who move on island time living in the moment and not rushing through the day just to make it to the next day just to start all over again. While on this trip I plan to get a substantial body of work for an island exclusive gallery showing this spring. One of our main hikes on <a href="http://www.kauaidiscovery.com/">Kauai </a>we will be doing is to the wettest spot on earth, <a href="http://www.101thingstodo.com/hawaii/kauai/tours/mtwaialeale/index.php">Mt. Wai'ale'ale.</a> We have hooked up with a<a href="http://www.hikekauaiwithme.com/"> hiking guide</a> that will guide us through the lush canyon and into the base of the<a href="http://www.waialeale.org/"> Blue Hole</a> which is home to hundreds of waterfalls 3000 plus feet high. I can only imagine what it's going to feel like to stand inside such a magical and for me spiritual place. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwGPegJj3c4Yvii59T7StbGkHDF3PmxuCSxjxBs4Qo-QqfeORxRdic3KZeBXSok0zEvMVp923hUpbDJAMFx5C0QQ3HAo-OTOEfa9iMwJpnFRpNDJj_2siqxbjIn786wKXsqFB81syj-qU/s1600/Blue-Hole-Kauai.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwGPegJj3c4Yvii59T7StbGkHDF3PmxuCSxjxBs4Qo-QqfeORxRdic3KZeBXSok0zEvMVp923hUpbDJAMFx5C0QQ3HAo-OTOEfa9iMwJpnFRpNDJj_2siqxbjIn786wKXsqFB81syj-qU/s320/Blue-Hole-Kauai.jpg" width="213" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;">I'll be updating some of our adventures around the island on FB while we're there and will also be posting many new photographs when we get back.

Feeling cabin fever setting in I felt the need to get outside to breathe some fresh air and be away from our fast paced society, so I grabbed my camera and headed up to <a href="http://nysparks.state.ny.us/parks/145/details.aspx">Harriman St. Park </a>in NY. The fresh air was cold but felt good on my face as I headed into Reeves Meadow along the Stony Brook. I headed out on the trail and followed some snowshoers packed down trail, Having snow shoes would of been the smart move but my hiking boots would have to do for today. I hiked about a mile along the creek shooting in snow drifts that were well above my knees and even deeper. It's amazing how being outside in such a pristine, quite and natural setting can clear the mind and rejuvenate the soul. Hope you enjoy the photos.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjacH5hwOW7vOVRyC91m29XdPDHO4EkuLX_mZSvtk3Pdx1J82UWblm7d1t5wsywBAsjF2gYG1L_02rQMPejINJxiEsR76DDTnoX0Vvh6I_IojKDU6BqYaOynK8WyY1-97xyebwdguhFN8g/s1600/Harriman+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="217" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjacH5hwOW7vOVRyC91m29XdPDHO4EkuLX_mZSvtk3Pdx1J82UWblm7d1t5wsywBAsjF2gYG1L_02rQMPejINJxiEsR76DDTnoX0Vvh6I_IojKDU6BqYaOynK8WyY1-97xyebwdguhFN8g/s320/Harriman+2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6sbZw7iSXOjAjf4ZkL0Okb1qWLQaCaoMT8iu-kglOIUEjrSo-w7vpZd8TQu9Piz4DOWDnAdE_zRsgLNAZfAYsh-n-KTTDS1lLQYtNNq6f9k1IKfZANnkTf3vDkpgD7G8CVvfemZrBd8M/s1600/Harriman+3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="217" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi6sbZw7iSXOjAjf4ZkL0Okb1qWLQaCaoMT8iu-kglOIUEjrSo-w7vpZd8TQu9Piz4DOWDnAdE_zRsgLNAZfAYsh-n-KTTDS1lLQYtNNq6f9k1IKfZANnkTf3vDkpgD7G8CVvfemZrBd8M/s320/Harriman+3.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17727514438979814638noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2781685966765948523.post-84560838956653075662010-12-27T18:06:00.000-05:002010-12-27T18:06:22.157-05:00My Last post of 2010<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4N5wbJfe89B19_U_Fa06yMW472HZWaEr0fP8I4Q-jAOBSMzbUyJ0hlrSnhOAEfYuTKrPDQ8egk9pdGHojcujXPwZw9gJ0l0UaH0WxQrhDYLN-x6_opsgUeJ1cgJH2L-Np18UxY55LekI/s1600/Black-Canyon-AZ-WR.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="217" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4N5wbJfe89B19_U_Fa06yMW472HZWaEr0fP8I4Q-jAOBSMzbUyJ0hlrSnhOAEfYuTKrPDQ8egk9pdGHojcujXPwZw9gJ0l0UaH0WxQrhDYLN-x6_opsgUeJ1cgJH2L-Np18UxY55LekI/s320/Black-Canyon-AZ-WR.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: black;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #cccccc;">Well, 2010 is coming to a close and 2011 will be arriving soon.

I don't normally shoot indoor activities but since I love good music and I thought this would be a great fit. What I love about Mark and the people that play with him is that they all have a true passion for their craft. They play what they feel from their heart and sole. <a href="http://www.marksganga.com/">Marks</a> playing can be compared to a world class painter laying paint on a canvas. He's work in animated, colorful and truly paints a picture with each ringing note. I'm excited to announce that <a href="http://www.marksganga.com/">Mark</a> will be playing at my Gallery reception at <a href="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=150396881658806&ref=ts">Sancaurary in Nyack, NY</a> next Saturday Oct. 16 from 5 to 9pm. I think I was able to visually capture The <a href="http://www.marksganga.com/">Mark Sganga Trio</a> with my lens adding somewhat of an artistic flare.

Today I can find many reasons why I should be doing this. I'll be flying to <a href="http://www.visitlasvegas.com/vegas/index.jsp">Las Vegas</a>, renting a car and driving to <a href="http://www.arizonaguide.com/">Arizona </a>to meet my friend and world class adventure racer <a href="http://www.kayaklakemead.com/director-robert-finlay.html">Robert Finlay</a> to photograph his upcoming 300 mile <a href="http://xtremesport4u.com/adventure-racing/desert-winds-expedition-race-another-extreme-adventure-race-to-look-forward-to/">Desert Wind Adventure Race</a> through some of the most remote parts of the Mohave Desert in Arizona and around Lake Mead as well as near the Grand Canyon. Although I'm prepared; I have clothing packed for all kinds of weather, sleeping bag, laptop and of course all my camera equipment, I still am feeling that nervous feeling knowing I'm stepping into the unknown. I'll be photographing some of the best adventure racers in the country through some of the most amazing landscape in the southwest. I have total confidence in my skills as a photographer and an outdoors person being able to deal with the many different kinds of elements but there's always the "what if" in the back of the head. This is where I'll have to go with the mind set of "luck is when preparation meets opportunity". I'm prepared and the opportunity is in front of me, therefore I'll be very lucky this coming week.</span><br style="color: #cccccc;" /><span style="border-collapse: separate; color: #cccccc; font-family: Arial; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px;"><br />

Most never see the lottery ticket or their dream being presented to them because they're either too closed minded or are truly afraid of achieving what they set out to do. With the achievement of the dream comes a life change and the thought of "now what?" or "what will others think?" Most don't want to reach their dream, so instead they defeat themselves and use outside elements as the excuse of failure. I can say with confidence that I used to be one of those people, but, had my eyes opened a couple of years ago and will never defeat myself, therefore, no one or anything else can defeat me. </div><div style="font-family: Arial; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="font-family: Arial; text-align: justify;">Life is what one makes of it. There's NEVER anyone or anything holding a person back other than their own demons. Wake up everyday and face that fear, know it's there and that it will try to consume your every breathing moment but overcome it and use it to push forward toward the goal. Once one opens up and can look past that fear they will see that the opportunities are endless. All you have to do is go along for the ride. We are all born with the tools. Some use the tools while others complain that their tools don't work. Who do you want to be?</div><div style="font-family: Arial; text-align: justify;"><br />

The reason was simple, to raise money to help in finding a cure for Alzheimer's disease. When we heard this we both said SIGN US UP!!! Both Sue and I live for stuff like this and what better reason then to do it for than for a great cause. As the time drew close to our departure date the talk became reality and then on midnight Thursday, August 20, we all assembled at Jeff’s house for our departure. 6 crazy guys, one little blonde with a ponytail, a 25 foot RV and enough water, Gatorade and nutrition supplements to open up a store took off with Rich Gandon from the Ramapo Times filming us. We broke the trip down into a total of 5 legs, three 10 mile running legs and 2 bike legs one a 20 miler and the other a 10 miler.
