Reflecting Sunset on the Fox Canvas Print

This stretch of the Fox River in Algonquin, Illinois, USA, is one of my favorite spots for sunsets. We often get these red skies in November. I shoot from a location that is pretty hard to get to unless you are a raccoon, but that is what makes it special! I also have an image of this in a vertical format available, if that better fits your needs.

The origin of my name means watchful or observant. I always thought that was appropriate for someone who likes to make images from what he sees. I started with photography when I was about 11 years old after receiving a hand-me-down Brownie box camera. My approach toward photography is to stop and smell the roses. It is a simplistic adage, but rings true to how I create images. I slow down and stop to see beauty in everyday objects and the natural world, and use the magic of photography to share my vision with others. While I don't expect others to necessarily see the same thing that I saw while making my photographs, my goal is that my images will evoke a special feeling, mood, or emotion for the viewer. Thank you for looking at my work....
