“Rock Water Abstract”
Here is another shot from my recent hike, I shot this right below Schoolhouse Falls in Southern Indiana, the color in the forest hadn’t really turned yet but a few early leaves did happen to land on this rock which I thought added a lot of character to the scene.
The great thing about shooting in these canyons and gorges that surround our community is the fact there are just an amazing variety of shots you can get in just a short hike in this area. You can go for your classic large landscape waterfall shots like the ones I posted before or you can do more intimate abstract shots like the above or even work your way down to spring wildflower or macro leaf shots.
Just make sure you bring lenses to cover all your focal lengths and a tripod to work off of and then find yourself a beautiful place to work, I am sure wherever you live there is somewhere close by that you can photograph many of the same subjects I have in my area. Try to get out in the morning and evening or a cloudy windless day also look for the extraordinary in an ordinary world, shoot things other people overlook and you never know what you might find.
With Fall quickly approaching now is the time to get out and enjoy the beautiful weather and surroundings and bring home a few good images as well, thanks for stopping by and taking a look !!

Hello my name is Bernie Kasper and I am a photographer from Madison, a small town located in the Southeastern part of Indiana on the banks of the Ohio River, the area I call home has a rich diversity of topography and wildlife that make it a special place.
From the canyons and waterfalls of Clifty Falls State Park , the wetlands of the Muscatatuck National Wildlife Refugee and the beautiful prairies and large forested tracts of Big Oaks National Wildlife Refugee the area is rich in outdoor photographic opportunities.
The area also boasts the city of Madison a National Historic Landmark, with over 100 city blocks designated as Historic, the Architectural and Historic opportunities for tourism and photography are second to none.
I also run a photography portrait business here in Madison, specializing in Family, Senior and Wedding Photography…Coolpicsphotography’s Blog
I hope I will be able to convey the beauty of the area and share any info as well about this place I call home.

I really like this one, Bernie! Your advice is very good. There are always fascinating things out doors awaiting those who venture out.
This is just beautiful!!
Love the contrast of the softness of the water against the clarity of the rock and leaves.
Very beautiful and I love the hint of Fall in the photo.
Beautiful work, Bernie. Great texture contrasts.
Good advice on shooting things others overlook, of course. Sometimes even a good, up close look over my own yard yields some wonderful finds!
Absolutely wonderful shot here, btw. Love the colors & geometry!
Love this perspective. But Bernie, I didn’t know Indiana was so tropical…”with Fall quickly approaching” you say? More like winter quickly approaching up here! 🙂
You’ve got a nice blog here. Love your waterfall images. Carol
I had as much fun zooming in on the waterfalls I recently photographed as the grand views. You are so right, there is so much close by that people overlook. Your photo here is beautiful and reflective of this time of year. Almost fall? It’s almost done in upstate NY. 🙂
Nicely done Bernie. I see tension between the water and the rock and live the color elements added by the leaves.
Good advice and great perspective in this image. I like how the rock enters the frame from the LR corner. The touch of color from the leaves serves the image well. Good work, Bernie.
very nice slow shuter speed…
great tone
I like this “riverscape” Bernie and those leaves add a lot to the character of the image. I like the composition, colours and lightning. The mood captured in it is excellent and perfectly matching dark fall atmosphere.
Awesome shot there, is it just a long exposure? Or is there a little photoshop magic as well, either way it is really good.
