Frozen Bubbles and Birds

Thursday, January 11th, 2018




It’s been mighty cold in New Jersey.  After seeing lots of inspiring frozen bubble photos, I decided to give it a try.  While mighty cold, it was fascinating and beautiful to see the gorgeous patterns emerge as the bubble froze.  Many of the unfrozen bubbles were also pretty, and I decided to use Photoshop to merge bubbles with my bird photos.

Egret love!

Thursday, April 20th, 2017






I love when the various types of Egrets return to the area!  I love watching them fly, catch fish, and displaying their beautiful wings. Here are some that I’ve taken this month. I’ll be posting more as time permits.  I’m happy to announce that these images, and others, are available for purchase by either contacting me or going to my photography site here.

Birds in the March Snow Storm

Saturday, March 18th, 2017








We had a very mild February in central, NJ. with several days in the upper 60s and even low 70s.  Sadly it didn’t last into March. Instead, a nasty snowstorm and bitter cold weather. I took some of these pictures on the day of the storm and the days following. The warm weather cannot get here soon enough!

My new Photography Website

Monday, September 19th, 2016

gloria-website-sm1
I have finally finished a website that features some my photography and digital paintings!  You can see it at www.gloriahansenphotography.com.  I am selling both prints (for folks who, like me, would rather do their own framing) and ready-to-hang.  In that department, my favorite are the prints on metal.  They are very pretty and make a great gift!  Please check it out and let me know what you think.  Also, I will be continually adding to the site.

These are some of the many photos I took of a juvenile bald eagle at the Forsythe Preserve.  The lighting changed a lot from the very early morning sunrise to mid-morning, and the bird kept returning to his post (to the delight of me and several others patiently waiting with their cameras).

The Heron and the Bullfrog

I spotted a heron at the Davidson Mill Pond Park in central, NJ walking along the edge with something in its mouth.  As I focused my camera on it, it flew across the pond.  I realized the heron had speared a bullfrog through its back rear thigh!  As I walked closer, the heron noticed me and began to walk into the grass.  As he looked over his shoulder towards me, the bullfrog slid off its beak and got away!  The heron was none too happy and was unable to find it.  I returned several days since, thinking I’d find that bullfrog, maybe morphed into a prince with a limp.  Alas, I haven’t found him yet!
