Taughannock Falls - Taughannock Falls State Park, New York
A couple weeks back I was out for a day of birding and exploration traveling north on the west side of Lake Cayuga and into the Montezuma Wetlands complex to see the Scissor-tailed Flycatcher. On the way up the lake I decided to stop briefly at the overlook for Taughannock Falls, the tallest waterfall east of the Mississippi River in New York state (Thanks Earl). Having never been there before, I was expecting to have to walk a mile or so to visit the site and while that wasn’t in the cards for the day, I thought I would at least drive by. Turns out you don’t have to walk anywhere and this photograph was taken about 10 feet from the parking lot.

I’d like to take a minute to share a little about the project I worked on all last summer, the Kizilburun shipwreck excavation. My wife and I spent the summer living in a remote camp on the coast of Turkey as part of a team excavating a shipwreck over 2,000 years old. This really is a project my wife has worked on for a couple years now but this summer I was able to join the excavation as a photographer.

Unnamed Waterfall - Six Mile Creek, Roy Park Preserve, Dryden, NY
I’d like to start a new series of posts, the Featured Photo. The basic idea is to feature a photograph, maybe it will be one of my best, maybe not. The idea is to talk a little bit about the image and what was going through my mind when I took it, why I like it, or why it came up short. Just a nice simple glimpse into the thinking behind a particular image.
