Sunflowers
It started raining here last night and doesn’t show any sign of stopping, so let’s step back a few days to some sunnier subject matter. Mandy came home from the grocery store with some sunflowers the other day and stuck them in a pretty blue glass vase on the kitchen table. I’ve had my eye [...]
Promised Land
Out at Promised Land last night to take advantage of the perfect weather before the rain moves in tonight. It was well worth the drive – the light was perfect. I know it’s a successful outing when I start forgetting about things; I focus on the light and the scene and stop worrying about how [...]
Party in B&W
Spent the weekend with family – mostly driving back and forth across town to have different meals with family. Good times, and of course I had the camera in hand, so here are a few shots.
Easter: the usual
Easter has come and gone now, one of those quieter holidays where I planned to show up with the camera and a lens or two in the little shoulder bag, make a few images throughout the day, and keep it low-key. That lasted until an hour before we left, when I ended up packing the [...]
Easter Morning
I was going to sleep in Sunday, but the chance of a good sunrise dragged be out of bed while it was still dark. Looking for a shorter drive, I ended up at Lackawanna State Park, struggling to make something of a modest dawn. I tried the blue/yellow polarizer trick at first, but didn’t like [...]
Sunrise (and some cheating)
Out for sunrise again at Promised Land this morning, with an excellent forecast but a sky that bordered on being skunked up. A low haze formed and blocked out the sun, so no warm, direct sunlight as it crested the trees. In fact, even the pre-cresting glow shots were coming out a little bland, even [...]
Promised Land
A couple from Promised Land State Park this morning – headed out for sunrise. Light didn’t get too dramatic, but it was still good to be out again – and not freezing my butt off!
Five Year Plan
Until this point in my life, a five year plan was something I’d never given thought to. It was hard enough knowing what I’d be doing in five months, much less an entire year or longer. Such are the luxuries of being a student – your whole life is measured in semester increments. Now that [...]
Morning in Blue & Gold
Finally made it out this morning for sunrise – another of those hectic weeks where I didn’t get a camera in my hands for far too long and it left me feeling blah. In a strange approximation to guilt, I got up even earlier this morning to atone, heading out to Ford’s before the sun [...]
