Photography in quiet and eloquent light.

Landscape Photography is my passion. It gets you out into nature, up early to watch the sunrise, and out late to catch that last glimpse of light. Landscape photography is the walk in the woods, the crisp morning air at sunrise, the crunch of the boots on a trail, the quiet marsh, fog on the water, or snowshoes on the fresh snow. It is the light through the tree canopy, clouds, or on the hills, trails and mountain peaks or canyon walls. The interplay of light, texture, shadow, detail and color influence my expression of the sense of place.  There is the anticipation of the making of a great image, the process in making the image, and the editing to recall what the eye and senses experienced at the time the image was made. It is all culminated in the fine art print.

The National Parks are referred to as America’s Best Idea. For the past 15 years I have visited many National and State Parks and brought back images of the beauty of our country. I share with you my images and love for the natural beauty of our Parks. Enjoy the quiet and the eloquent light.

I am originally from Poughkeepsie, NY, in the Mid-Hudson River Valley. I moved to the Lowcountry in 2017, after practicing law for 34 years. In 2024 I moved to Southern Chester County, Pennsylvania. Oxford, PA is just 4 miles from the Maryland and Pennsylvania State Line (the Mason-Dixon Line). I have been making images since college. For over the last 20 years I have been displaying and selling my photographs. I run Bogle Photography, which includes the sale of landscape images, contract work, and custom fine art printing.

For satin or luster papers, my choice is Canson Platine. For canvas prints, I use Breathing Color canvas, as well as Hahnemuhle canvas. I mat my prints with archival acid free foam core and acid free over mats, and frame my work.

Image making

Part of the joy for me in photography is the process. I loved the tactile work of developing and printing black and white negatives in my darkroom. I never thought that digital photography would give me that same sensation or satisfaction, however I was wrong. With all of the wonderful papers available, the photographers who prints their own images controls the look and feel of the image. I prefer cotton rag matte papers, but can print an image in any paper or medium, including canvas. My capture is made with Nikon cameras and lenses, and I print with archival pigment inks with large format Epson Professional printers. Tell me what you like as an image, and I can offer you many sizes or options for that print. At present, I choose Canson Platine for luster or semi-gloss prints, and Epson Hot Press Bright or Natural and Moab Entrada Bright or Natural for most prints. I also print smaller canvas images and panoramas on Breathing Color canvas. My choice is based on the image and its shadow detail and luminosity. I like the colors and textures that a matte paper provides, but some images require the higher dmax (black), contrast, and detail a luster paper allows. The combination of paper and Epson UltraChrome HDR ink have archival qualities that outlast many traditional black and white archival prints when properly stored.

In the past, I controlled the entire process, from loading bulk black and white film, developing it and printing it in my own wet darkroom, and then matting and framing my prints. I thought that the control I had over the image would be lost with digital, however, once I started to print my own images, I found the same excitement about the choice of papers, exposure, burning and dodging and final print quality in digital prints. I have scanned many of my black and white images and processed them with my digital workflow. The results show more detail and information in the final print than ever before possible. I can process and print black and white film and have cameras ranging from 35mm rangefinders to medium format (2.25" by 2.25") and a 4″ by 5″ view camera. I scan old negatives into my computer and edit them in the digital darkroom. The output on inkjet papers is better and longer lasting that I could achieve in a traditional wet darkroom. I feel that my work with traditional film cameras and wet darkroom printing betters my understanding of photography, and makes me a better photographer and printer.
