Moving On Or Catching Up

I now own an iPhone. This particular phone has a camera with higher megapixels than my first digital camera (I suppose that’s not extremely hard to believe!) So here is a test photo shot at Bridges Restaurant in Maryland. Also, this was posted using the WordPress App.

Lesson Of The Day

Sunny Day On The Bay

Sunday, they are predicting snow in the area but today it’s nice and sunny here on the Chesapeake Bay. Ohhh, Maryland weather…Image was shot at Terrapin Beach Park.  I especially love the sparkling water.

Hobo International Mock Shoot

Here are some fabulous test images of bags from Hobo International.  They are just to pretty (especially the yellow one!) to not been seen.

Gin And Tonic

I always get inspired to shoot, create, and eat when my new Food & Wine Magazine arrives in the mail.  Here is a recipe for a Gin & Tonic.  The photo was shot on location at the 9:30 Club in Washington D.C., while rocking out to Thievery Corporation.  Cheers!

 

Yellow Spanish Painter

Somewhere in the back alley’s of Spain a man spends his days painting over the graffiti.  He looked very angry to me.  But, this was probably because I was there shooting the street art he was trying to cover up.  The yellow outfit and reflection from the wall onto the ladder really bring you into this image.

Father To Son

Palo Alto, California.  New to the world, (and my youngest cousin I may add!) Hudson and his father Rodney explore the great city scape during an early morning stroll.  Everyone adored him of course – Even the bagel shop we ate at gave Hudson a mini kid-size bagel to eat.  Dear Hudson, welcome to the world kid… it’s going to be great.

Light Pink Stove House

Brasil:  roughly translated, the sign above the door says:  Stove Conservation.  You can see around five layers of crumbling color on the house.  It’s perfect.

A Moment Of Bliss

On a trip to the Dominican Republic Liza enjoys a moment of pure bliss.

Kindling And Limb Wood

Every once in a while I come across a photo I love and cannot remember where I took it.  This drives me crazy.  And, this is why GPS is now in cameras – I’m sure of it.  Years ago, on a very long traveling spree this image was snapped.  In most mountainous regions the kindling and limb wood were on the honor system – no one is there to collect your money, you just take what you need, leave your money in an old tin jar that is chained to a tree, and carry on.

Colin And Patrick

Atlanta, Georgia.  Two brothers:  Colin & Christopher (aka Patrick) take a few seconds out of their busy schedule of basketball shooting, Angry Bird playing, and Lego building to look at the camera.  How can you not love their boyish charm? – don’t ever loose it!
