“Where the hell am I?” I gasped for air as I came to, the first thing that came to my mind was “Where the hell am I?”. As I heard a familiar voice ripple through the transition between unconscious and conscious: “Dude are you ok?” My panicked reply: “Someone turn on a goddamned light.” As

Sometimes I like to dive back a few years into the archives and see what I saw through my camera on a particular adventure. This shot comes from a trip in 2011 to New York's highest point, Mount Marcy in the High Peaks region of Adirondack Preserve. The weather was absolutely perfect for this hike,

This weekend, while working on a ski film project, and while shooting some events at a local ski resort, I ran into this fellow. Quite an interesting way to keep one's face warm if you ask me, but there is no doubt it is doing a fine job. This was taken during a slalom race
Walking in a Frozen Land It was a chilly New Year day in Northeast Pennsylvania, and we were geared up for a winter hike. Ricketts Glen State Park is one of those special places in Pennsylvania that I try and make it to at least once or twice a winter to take in the splendor
