All Bluffton Icon News

Bluffton photographer Dennis Morrison provides Icon viewers with an interesting series of photos that are more difficult to take than you might at first think.

Last fall he photographed scenes at the Bluffton University college cabin and Riley Creek along Bixel Road.

Then, following the recent heavy snowfall, he repeated his photography. 

The result is an interesting collection of two scenes - one from fall and the other from winter.
