Blendon Woods Metro Park opens at 6:30 AM. In mid October in Ohio the sun rises at about 7:30 AM. How can you enjoy photographing fall colors before the dawn? Bring a camera, a tripod and a 2,000,000 candle power flashlight.

Stepped outside yesterday evening and saw some very unusual undulating clouds. I grabbed my camera bag and tripod and rushed over to Blendon Woods Metro Park.

I took my first trip to Inniswood Metro Gardens in Westerville, Ohio recently. In an effort to balance taking photos with enjoying the moment, I only took one camera and one lens, an old Rokkor 50mm f/1.4, expecting to get photos of flowers and insects. The fantastic gardens had so much more to offer.
