Bearing a Mask

To complete the circle for 2020, I had to include this photo that was awarded 3rd place in the HCPG annual contest. Obviously, a candid shot otherwise he would not be holding the crappy plastic bag. Shot in Blue Ridge during our road trip to Georgia. I was thinking we may not have any mask pics in 2021, but even with the vaccines, it looks like the...

I self published a collection of some of my photos from the past year and titled the collection - Social Distance 2020.
It will probably be a hot read in 10 or 15 years. In the meantime, if you want a copy you can order the softbound or digital version from Blurb at this link. https://www.blurb.com/b/10456540-social-distance-2020

My COVID theme has been Trumped by the events of January 6, 2021. After the mob scene at the US Capitol, my Danish friend messaged me that evening:
PH - I hope you are OK. Seeing some scary news from the USA! Looks like bad things are happening.
ME - We are fine. 10% of the USA population are Goons. When you need that 10% to get elected, you get...

COVID is getting ugly. Virus fatigue is setting in and people are finding it hard to maintain social distance. Infections are way up following Thanksgiving and will probably spike again a few weeks after Christmas. There is hope that the new vaccines will eliminate the virus, but it took a few years to eliminate chickenpox after a vaccine was disco...

The Virus rages on having returned with a vengeance in the fall. I took this clever little photo in the summer. It won an Honorable Mention for the theme of humanity in the Harford County Photography Group's first annual photo competition.

Summer came to an end and the COVID virus is still out there. We had some nice sunsets on the east coast of the USA. Some attribute the red sky sunsets to smoke in the upper atmosphere from the wildfires in California and Oregon created. Here is a 2020 late summer sunset.

The fish, not the song by Heart. The rate of COVID virus infection is on the decline. Summer is in full swing as best it can be with physical distancing and people hesitant to get on airplanes with surfaces touched by thousands and recirculated air pumped thorough the silver cylinder. Barracudas remind me of silver cylinders cruising the ocean in s...

As the COVID virus continues to spread, I have decided to continue my fish theme. I shot this while snorkeling in St. John - I think it is a green turtle and not a hawksbill turtle. When you are in their environment, they can swim much faster than you can. COVID is killing humans, so most humans are social distancing and staying in their homes ther...

More Fish

OK - I realize this is not a new project or images in the works, but my ability to shoot is limited while stuck inside social distancing during the corona plague rage. And fish make me happy, especially fish in the Caribbean. All they do is swim around in warm perfectly clear waters, eating, sleeping, and creating more fish - they don't know anythi...
