Micro World

This is why we like to spend so much money on camera equipment...They're our toys, which in turn, make the rest of the world look like one big toy! This is what's possible with the combination of a tilt-shift lens, a timer remote, and lots of patience/cooperation. Amazing...

Alex - Shoot Two

Baby Alex had his second photo shoot this afternoon out at my parent's place in Havana...The sun came out for a few minutes, and the ominous clouds held back the rain so we could get these few shots....Hope the mini "camera lesson" helps more than hinders you Casey! :-P

A Cinderella Story

If the whole world could feel what we feel for one another, there would be no madness, chaos, war or terror....Only respect and laughter.








And apparently somewhere in the park, a Cinderella was missing her croc...

Natural Bridge Reenactment

March 7th, 2009 the Natural Bridge Historic Society reenacted the Civil War Battle of Natural Bridge in Woodville, FL. Camera in-tow, Meghan, my niece and I wandered around and soaked in the history. They did an amazing job putting this all together, and I hope these photos give you some small inkling of the atmosphere they worked so hard to create.

I've edited a few select images from the gallery to tone and process in a way that I feel would lend itself best to the era...Sepia toned, textured and a little heavy on the contrast to add that extra drama.

Fun w/ HDR

As is customary in nearly all hobbies turned into part-time work, you slowly begin to lose focus of your original ambitions. A little bit of "Photography for the soul" is good once in a while, and I had a great little weekend romp through downtown Tallahassee with two fellow photographers...Seeking a return to our roots: Mako Yoshikawa and Michael Schwarz.

The sunrise was lackluster...The gloomy clouds of afternoon rain-to-be were drifting in, disguising any of the anticipated golden hues of sunrise...But photographers can't really complain about an overcast day, and we still got the shots we were after.

I played around a bit with perspective and HDR...Below are some example shots, with more to come soon.
