Selected Features appearing in Milford Magazine (’05-’07)
Scranton Makes Sparks - October 2007
One of the most involved features I wrote during my tenure at Milford Magazine, I was responsible for tracking down the Mayor, a few innovative buisness owners, artists, and citizens helping to bring Scranton back to its former glory. Photography by me unless otherwise noted.
The 70,000 Acre Woods – September 2007
A one-on-0ne interview with the Director of the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, John Donahue. Having spoken on a few occasions in the past with Mr. Donahue (who once introduced me to Clyde Butcher, a phenomenally talented nature photographer known as the “Ansel Adams of the Everglades”), he was happy to update me on the park’s plans as of the fall of 2007. Photography by me.
Take a Hike! – July 2007
A guide to a group of diverse hiking locations across the region, ranging from ambulatory to intense. Photography by me unless otherwise noted.
Hunters With Film -May 2007
Short profiles of a few talented nature photographers in the Delaware Highlands region along with their work. It was a treat to seek these photographers out and learn how each approached their subjects. Opening photo by Stephen Davis, full page waterfall photo by Mike Gadomski. All other photos by the photographers depicted on the same page.
Friends of Farm and Forest – May 2006
Many of those who make significant contributions toward protecting and caring for the beautiful land in the Delaware Highlands region were the same folks retreating from urban and suburban life ten to twenty years ago. I met with Suzie Dickerson of Apple Creek Farm to learn her story, and to educate others in the region on how they can make their own contributions–just by taking a walk in the woods. Opening photos by me.
Expert Advice: Ruth Jones on the River’s Rapids and Riffles – July 2005
Ruth Jones is something of a local legend, and it was her wise words that guided me through my first feature at Milford Magazine, a short guide to the the Delware River rapids from the river’s fork at Hancock, NY, to the calmer and smoother waters in Milford, Pennsylvania.
