"COAST-ing the Scary Skies" {Fall-ing in Love with Autumn} (Episode 13)
Location: Downtown, Sandusky, Ohio
Date: October, Fall 2025

Narrative:
Arriving at the Meigs street I took my walk along the pier until I arrived at its edge. To my left is a narrow walkway which leads to a boat outlet, and to my right is long strip where many Sandusky Natives are corralling some of Lake Erie's best aquatic vertebrates. Feeling I was close enough I placed my aerial companion about 6ft from where I was standing. A double tap of the power button and the controller is now powered up. Assertively the aircraft takes to the windy skies. "Hmm...probably should have checked the wind speed for today." "Mmm...I'm sure it will be fine" I said to myself. Traversing the skies I made a beeline for America's roller coast. Calmly enjoying the flight, I would occasionally look at the morning fisherman and fisherwomen pointing at the craft from a distance. 2000 meters later I arrive at what I believed was the preferred distance. After capturing a few shots...I was startled by a warning from the controller. (LOW BATTERY WARNING!!...RETURN TO HOME!!) Puzzled....I looked at the controller. "Is it a malfunction?" I said to myself. It's has like 47% left. Taking a look at my phone I noticed the winds had dramatically increased.
Not taking any changes I made my journey back to the pier. Now 1800 meters away, gust from the wind and I had to adjust my hat as it nearly blows off.
(LOW BATTERY WARNING!!...RETURN TO HOME!!) Battery level:...35%........................34%.........................33% "Battery level is discharging pretty fast." are my thoughts.
Now 1200 Meters away ...(LOW BATTERY WARNING!!...RETURN TO HOME!!) 900 Meters away. ....28%..................27%.................26%. (LOW BATTERY WARNING) RETURN TO HOME! "C'Mon...you can do it." I thought to myself.
Battery Level:...23%..................22%.................21%. "This might be a photo finish." I say to myself. Slowly the winds calm and It safely arrive above the pier. Slowly landing where I took off, I take a deep breath and thank the creator that the air craft captured its visual treasure and survived to tell the tale.

"FALL at the Lake Front" {Fall-ing in Love with Autumn} (Episode 12)
Location: Lake Front Park, Huron, Ohio
Date: November, Fall 2025

Narrative:

It's been a while since you have been to Huron, So you decide to make a trip. Pulling up to a vacant lot, you park and take note of your inventory. In a black camera bag lies your primary camera with a wide lens, your secondary camera with a telephoto lens, and a drone. "Mmmm..no need to use the drone today" you say to yourself. Grabbing your secondary camera you cautiously step outside the vehicle. It's been a while since you used it. Its cream colored lens looks in remarkable condition. You hold it up. Firmly squeezing it from the underside your fingers glide along the focus ring. It's has a very grippy texture. Rotating counterclockwise is smooth and with each turn the barrel slowly extends from the outer shell. As you make your way down the side walk you see birds flying near a distant lighthouse. Their formations are complex and in sync as if they are rehearsing a performance. The sounds of crashing waves can be heard below you on a nearby beech. You carefully slide down the slope and make your way to the beaches edge. In the distance is a very familiar landmark. Crouching low you touch the sand. It's wet from the nearby water rushing upon the surface. It's gritty. As you rub it along your finger tips the particles slowly descend from your fingers and disappear into the shoreline. The wind picks up and waves lap against each other embracing each other over and over again. Laying prone you compose yourself. The auto focus locks into place, and as your finger hovers above the capture button the waves move organically in the foreground.....3......2.....1. The capture button is pressed and here are your spoils from a visit to the Lake Front Park.

"FALL-ing leaves on Wayne" {Fall-ing in Love with Autumn} (Episode 11)
Location: Downtown, Sandusky, Ohio
Date: November, Fall 2025

Narrative: I was telling someone Autumn is slowly becoming my favorite season. The colors are so beautiful. Walking along the quiet street of Wayne observing the quiet beauty. Each step I take is accompanied by the familiar splat of a sole walking over newly wet sidewalk. Approaching the curb was a harmonious display of greens and oranges. Hawthorns, field maples, and more, it was so beautiful to see. As I crouch down my right foot steps upon a newly fallen leaf. Placing my eye up to the view finder I could see the leaves as they descended from the nearby branches. After a while I found what I had in mind. A picture that perfectly captures the feel of Falling leaves on Wayne.

"A Park & POINTs-of Interest" {Fall-ing in Love with Autumn} (Episode 10)
Location: Downtown, Sandusky, Ohio
Date: November, Fall 2025

Narrative: On a fall mid afternoon, a SUV pulls into a vacant space at Shoreline Park. As the brake lights come on the vehicle is placed in park. From the inside, the sounds of keys jingling, and a bag unzipping as a camera is taken from a black supply bag. Stepping out, a mild mannered man steps out of his vehicle and makes his way towards a worn bridge. He squints as the fine drops of water are descending from the fall hazy colored sky. Leaning upon a nearby tree he looks for the ideal angle. His finger rests on the capture button as his left hand slowly rotates the camera lens to 135mm. His eye brow now rests and upon the camera. Deep inhales and exhales lightly fog the electronic view finder. He takes a photo, and then another. As he reviews the images, he makes his way along the grass which feels like a shallow marsh. The chilly winds 18mph winds are picking up and his hands now feel a chill. His fingers begin to ache, and his socks are now beginning to feel cold as he steps into a nearby puddle. After more captures, he travels east bound toward a nearby Pavillion. Walking along the grass area, he is greeted to a large colony of gulls. The squawks are heard in the distance as they glide effortlessly from right to left. As if in a frenzy, they circulate around a central location as if this was their point of interest. With his trusty camera, he calmly finds his points in their direction savors the moments at the park.

"Moment in Time" {Fall-ing in Love with Autumn} (Episode 9)
Location: Downtown, Sandusky, Ohio
Date: October, Fall 2025

Narrative: The fall is a truly wonderful season. A time of harvest and a time of shedding the old, and embracing the new. It becomes a moment for us all to reflect. Watching the once vibrant leaves swaying on the branches to watching them now free fall to the sound like cherry blossoms. The home before you has always been symbolic to me. A place that I once walked by at 14 now has different meaning to me. The walks I had, the friends I laughed with. ...The memories...all come full circle. From youth to adult, pupil to teacher, and back again, it's all a MOMENT IN TIME. Cherish the moments.

"Familiar Fall" {Fall-ing in Love with Autumn} (Episode 8)
Location: Downtown, Sandusky, Ohio
Date: October, Fall 2025

Narrative:
The cool temps mixed with the warm skies sets the perfect tone for some vibrant skies. I didn't know exactly where the fall winds would take me so I took to the skies to get a better lay of the land. Oh how I love Sol's evening rays. The creamy liquid gold color lain along the city streets sets the perfect cinematic tone. Next, a casual walk along the paved sidewalk of Shoreline drive led down to the green pasture at the end of Shoreline Park. The Sandusky natives were all about with their fishing poles & signature fall gear in tact. As the wind caressed the lake waters I kneeled down to get a better look, and was smitten with the glorious fall colors. I bean to feel the familiar numbing pain in my fingers as I pressed the capture button. Closing the door to my vehicle I took a quick review of the snaps...and gave a few affirmative nods. "Ahhh...thats the fall I remember" I said to myself as I started my vehicle and headed along my way.

"Autumn Sun over 531" {Fall-ing in Love with Autumn} (Episode 7)
Location: Wayne Street, Sandusky, Ohio
Date: October, Fall 2025

Narrative:
A beautiful sight as SOL makes it easy across the gorgeous sky as we go about our lives on a daily basis. On this particular morning I had some time so I came down my favorite street. The experience Is always the same. Quiet and peaceful. The occasional birds chirping as they curiously watch me from a distance. As for myself I take the time to admire the architecture left behind from the families of long ago. Up today is 531. A place that I have always enjoyed. The look is glorious no matter the time of year. And today was no exception as the autumn afternoon sun gently lay its rays upon the now hardened clay. The Iron oxide within the clay creating the perfect contrast of warm earth tones and vibrant fall aesthetics. Just another beautiful home in the city we all call home.

Location: Wayne Street, Sandusky, Ohio
Date: October, Fall 2025

Narrative:
Talking a walk down Wayne Street is always a treat. The architecture of the homes here are always a delight to look at. As I walked down the sidewalk in the early afternoon I was smitten by the colors of autumn. The grass looked so green and healthy. Watching the locals take their furry babies on their walks and enjoying the warmer weather was so welcoming and brought a certain level of peace. My first stop was 609. I really enjoyed the contrasting colors all along the building. They really complemented the atmosphere of the autumn weather. While it's still kind of warm,be sure to enjoy these divine pieces of architecture.

{Fall-ing in Love with Autumn} (Episode 5) "COURT-ing Carnegie"
Location: Downtown Sandusky, Ohio
Date: October, Fall 2025

Narrative:
As the moon kisses the nearby landscape I felt inspired to capture some visual treasure. Moments later at a nearby library, the lights look ever so special as they shine along the rough textured exterior. Standing in the midst of Adams street I try vehemently to find the proper angle. Feeling uneasy, I cautiously looked to my right and left making sure not to block the occasional vehicle from passing by. "Doesn't feel right." I said to myself. Unsatisfied, I decided I might need to create some space between myself and the target. Step by step I walked along the park grass until I found a composition that I was satisfied with. I can hear the blades of grass rip and tear as I step by step make my way across its dimly lit green surface. "This looks good" I say to myself as I kneel down placing one knee in the densely chilled patch of grass. There is a subtle ..."whoosh"....heard in the night, and the gentle breeze now caresses the blades of grass from right to left. A steady hand, a calming sigh.....blink....blink.......Snap!! A quick review....an affirming head nod ....and with that I found the inspiration needed to continue my adventure.
