Chicago Silhuoette

An early-evening flight into Chicago puts the setting sun behind the skyline along Lake Michigan, reflecting silhouettes from the placid surface.

Prague Bird Stream

2020-Sep-092020-Sep-09 adohertyhLeave a comment

There are so many gulls along the Vltava in Prague that the rectilinear stacks going up the hillside are accompanied, courtesy a long exposure time, by smooth, curving surfaces of bird flight.

Petřín Glow

2020-Sep-02 adohertyhLeave a comment

With the trees free of leaves, the orderly arrays of lights along Petřín reveal its nature as a lovely park space in the city.

Yellow Leaves by Vltava

2020-Aug-072020-Aug-06 adohertyhLeave a comment

Autumn may not be peak tourist season in Prague, but the remaining foliage makes for an effective supplement to the red and white that otherwise dominate the city’s color palette.

Dinner with Gulls

2020-Jul-272020-Jul-26 adohertyhLeave a comment

Every pale streak over the glassy long-exposure water is one of Prague’s gulls. Given the amount of dropped trdelník (with ice cream filling!) available on the ground, they’re enjoying tasty treats on par with the tourists.

Reflecting on Vltava

2020-Jul-202020-Jul-19 adohertyhLeave a comment

The Vltava River turns every cityscape of Prague Castle into a dramatic set of reflections.

Looking onto the scene from the Charles Bridge, those reflections seem to be all around.

Late Spring Clouds Above the Adirondacks

2020-Apr-27 adohertyhLeave a comment

Late spring brings some of the best sunset clouds to Saranac Lake, but the evening temperatures would never let you confuse it for summer.

Island from the Shore

2020-Apr-172020-Apr-16 adohertyhLeave a comment

With the evening sky reflected in the water, this island in Saranac Lake appears to float like a fuzzy green saucer.

The temperature is rising and ice is melting and after the gritty, dirty snow finally vanishes, spring will come to the Adirondacks.

Jackson and Portland Geometry

2020-Feb-172020-Feb-16 adohertyhLeave a comment

Though the Tom Clancy vibe of the USS Jackson may not fit with every part of Portland, Oregon’s hippy vibe, it was conveniently moored across the river from the twin towers of the Oregon Convention Center with which it shares a certain angularity

Sunset on the Vltava River

After a cloudy week in Prague, our final day brought an incredible sunset over the Vltava River.

Airstream in the Morning

2019-Dec-252019-Dec-27 adohertyhLeave a comment

Morning outside a classic Airstream camper in California has a lovely glow that reflects off the metal body. As today is Christmas morning, I’ll think of this view as my present.

The Biggest Music Club in Central Europe

2019-Dec-132019-Dec-12 adohertyhLeave a comment

Continuing on the juxtaposition theme from my last post, here we have the “BIGGEST MUSIC CLUB IN CENTRAL EUROPE” jammed into a tiny corner between buildings along Prague’s Vltava River.

Prague Castle and Charles Bridge on the Vltava River

2019-Dec-01 adohertyhLeave a comment

I’m back from a week in Prague, and it’s time to roll out some serious Bohemian photography. To start off the week, check out this night shot across the Vltava River to Charles Bridge, Prague Castle, and the St. Vitus Cathedral.

Adirondacks June

2019-Jul-03 adohertyhLeave a comment

Is there any better place to be at the end of June than the Adirondacks? A soft carpet of moss and pine needles, a smooth varnished wood bench, and a evening view of Saranac Lake makes a great combination.
