Picture Of the Month
In an effort to challenge myself and feed my passion for learning & creating, I set a personal goal to create one photo, print or art piece every month that I really love.
March 2025 - March may have been a creative low for me with all that was going on in my life, the crappy weather that kept from riding my bicycle outside and the loss of my mother. Looking back now at images from March, my favorites are the ones that make me laugh a little or smile. This one is my favorite.
My wife commissioned an artist to create a large, wall print of our much loved pooch. We received the final proof and somehow our little dog that never listens to us struck the perfect pose.
This image makes me laugh and smile. This image also reminds me that things don’t always have to be so serious and that photography can be as simple as capturing a moment that makes you smile.

February 2025 - I never tire of lines to infinity. It will forever signify the journey, discovery and hope for me. I loved how the snow filled the tire track and lined up with the road on the horizon. I love that it is a little crooked, but it still goes on and on. I also like it because in all my years of riding, I have never shot something similar. I guess it’s possible to see new images even after all these years of riding and shooting.

January 2025 - I first saw, and attempted to get, this shot back in December 2024 but didn’t like the results. . I saw the fresh beaver cut out on one of the trees as I pedaled by. I thought it might be interesting to frame a subject with the beaver’s fresh work. I shot this both vertically and horizontally. I preferred the vertical with the tighter framing and how the chewed out tree spans the entire frame from top to bottom.
