My Favorite Summer Photos

With summer upon us, I’ve gathered up some of my favorite photos from summers past to share here with you.

The Mohican

Last summer, I went with my friend Michele to photograph the view from the Pinnacle in Bolton Landing, then we headed down to the Sagamore for brunch.  From there, I took this photo of the Mohican making its way by.  Click here to view more photos I took in the Saratoga area last summer.

Sunset Over the Hood Canal

I took this photo of a perfect sunset at the Alderbrook Resort in Union, WA, last summer.  Click here to view more photos I took at the Alderbrook.

Fireworks Over Saratoga Lake, Part II

Early last summer I captured the Fourth of July fireworks over Saratoga Lake.  Ironically, the fireworks that were further away across the lake made for a better photo because I could capture more of the lake in the scene.

In Flight

I captured this hummingbird in flight in my grandmother’s backyard in summer 2015.  It took manual focus and many tries to get this one shot.

Canoes Waiting to Take You Out on the Lake

I took a ride in one of these red canoes on Lake Louise in summer 2015.  That’s the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise in the background.  Click here to view more photos I took of Lake Louise.

Fireworks Over Saratoga

I captured this July 4th fireworks over downtown Saratoga in 2015.  Thanks to some friends for this great location!

1 & 2

I took this photo after a polo match at Saratoga Polo Association in summer 2014.

Heading Towards the Finish Line

One of many photos I took at the Saratoga Race Course in the summer of 2014.  Click here to see more photos I took at the track that year.

Looking Up at the Neilson House at Sunrise

I took this photo of the Neilsen Farm at Saratoga National Historic Park early one summer morning.  Click here to view more sunrise photos from summer 2014.

Saratoga County Fair-is Wheel

In summer 2014, my friend Barb and I went to the Saratoga County Fair for plenty of photo ops.  I like to capture the motion of the rides and the people.

Sand Harbor Beach in Lake Tahoe

Earlier in the summer, I visited Lake Tahoe and captured a pretty quintessential summer day at the beach.  Click here to view more photos I took in Lake Tahoe.

Kayaks at Moreau Lake

In summer 2013, I captured these kayaks by Moreau Lake one summer evening.  Click here to view more photos I took at Moreau Lake State Park.

These boats appear artfully spread out in this photo I took at Leeks Marina at Grand Teton National Park in summer 2013.  Click here to view more photos I took at Grand Teton National Park.

Thacher Park

Earlier in the summer, my friend Joy and I photographed John Boyd Thacher State Park near Albany.

Le crépuscule à Québec

In summer 2011, I visited Québec City and captured this dusk photo from the Fairmont Château Frontenac.  Click here to view more photos I took in Québec.

Sunset at Wellfleet Pier

Earlier in the summer, I visited Cape Cod and took this sunset photo from the Wellfleet Pier.

In summer 2010, I visited San Francisco and captured the hustle and bustle at Fisherman’s Wharf. 

In summer 2009, I captured this photo from the top of the ferris wheel at the New York State Fair in Syracuse.  It’s one of my favorite photos I’ve ever taken, but it’s also one of my most frequently stolen.  Click here to view more photos I’ve taken in Central New York.

Earlier that summer, I visited Martha’s Vineyard for the first (and so far, only) time.  The photo above I took as the ferry was arriving at Oak Bluffs, and the photo below I took as the ferry was departing Yarmouth on mainland Cape Cod.

I hope these photos have you excited for summer!
