Quiet Morning Stillness

Jeff Huntley December 2, 2019

I wake from my slumber. The dawn of a new day. Roll out of bed and reach for my drug of choice. Grind, press, pour, sip. Ahhhh. Synapses fire. Eyes open a little wider. Sweet bitter nectar of the gods. Open the door for a weather check. A bank of low clouds so solid I might as well be a in a biodome. Damn weather man, where are my high puffy clouds.

My Favorite Images of 2019
December 22, 2019

As 2019 winds to a a close, I have been reflecting on the year that was and on the many adventures I took both near and far. I’ve downloaded my “top nine” photos from Instagram, but find social media to be a funny place when it comes to what gets the love. So here are my personal top pics from the year.

Shine Bright
September 2, 2019

You can wish upon them and reach for them, that is all good and well. But if I can teach you anything it is this: You are made of star stuff and you shine as bright as Sirius amongst the dark night sky.
You are a star here on Earth and we need your radiance, so shine bright little star. I taught you how to build a fire. Now remember to keep stoking the ruby red flame inside of you. You will need to feed it often with love, kindness, and forgiveness.

Craggy in Spring
June 16, 2019

My favorite time of year to visit Craggy Gardens is in the Spring. Spring comes late to this high elevation micro-climate and its not unusual to have freezing temperatures even in April and early May. But once these mountains wake from their slumber they become fully alive with beautiful life.

My 2019 Project - The Great Craggy Mountains
February 18, 2019

As a landscape photographer and adventurer I love exploring new places. New trails, new waterfalls, new view, and new places far from home. This keeps me going and one of the reasons I’m so grateful to have found this art form. However, I think one of the best ways to hone the craft and get portfolio quality images is to visit the same place over and over again to find the best compositions in optimal conditions and light.
