Pedestrian Crossing

I spotted this group of pedestrians crossing on the other side of the intersection from where I was crossing. It goes without saying that I had a camera handy. It was twilight and the colors of the scene were in perfect harmony.


Tampa Bay Moonrise #2

This is one of the last photos of the evening when the moon had risen above the bridge and was illuminating the bay with a beautiful warm glow.


Tampa Bay Moonrise #1

Friday, on the night of the full moon, the skies turned perfectly clear and cloud-free and I knew there would be no problem seeing the moon rise up beneath the Sunshine Skyway Bridge. It was quite a beautiful sight when it made its appearance. This is the first shot I took that evening. Tomorrow I will post one of the later shots taken as the moon loomed over the bridge in the clear night sky. Click on the pic to see a larger size.


Broken Rules

Use a tripod in low light, focus carefully and so forth. Well not necessarily…


Cover Proof

The only photos I’ve been working on between teaching and speaking engagements the last couple of days are for the featured home for the next issue of Luxury Home magazine. This shot is the current leading candidate for the front cover of the issue.


Waterfront Property

I’m in a rush right now so for today’s post I simply grabbed a shot that I liked from yesterday’s shoot.


Moony Blues

I was out on a long hike and night descended while I was still some distance from camp. I came upon this scene without a tripod but thankfully the high ISO capability in my primary camera allowed me to get the shot without the need for stabilization.


Color Convergence

I was driving home the other night and as I crossed the railroad tracks by my house I spotted this out my window. I stopped at the red light just over the tracks and grabbed a camera from my bag while waiting for the light to turn green. With camera in hand I circled back around the block to the tracks. As I drove over them again I fired off this shot.


December Evening

On Monday afternoon I was out on a ranch photographing an equestrian event. I shot this as I was bumping along across the fields in the back of a pickup truck after the event had ended. It wasn’t really this dark when I shot it but I deliberately underexposed the scene to bring out the colors and the detail in the sky. I also needed the high shutter speed that created the underexposure to counteract the bumpy ride.


Church Courtyard

I’ve been taking a little time to clean up and organize my archives. That means that I have run across a few images that I intended to post here at one time or another but never actually got around to it.


A Ship on the Horizon

I stayed at the beach until it was dark but I kept taking lengthy time exposures that gave a surreal, dreamy look to the scene.


The Sun Goes Down Alone

A chilly December evening and there was no one at the beach to see the sun set except me.
