Spring Break

March 27, 2012

A couple of weeks ago my sons and I travelled to Puerto Rico for Spring Break. We visited family, spent time at the beach, did a lot of driving, got a lot of sun, but mostly enjoyed taking it easy. One day I took my sons to one of the beaches in Aguadilla where my [...]

Carnival Days

March 25, 2012

Carnivals have always intrigued me. There’s always fun to be had there. You enter a carnival never knowing what to expect going in other than a lot of sound, a lot of movement, a lot of people, and an expectation of the unexpected. There are smells at a carnival that you can only find in [...]

Giving Thanks

March 20, 2012

Sometimes I just want to give thanks to God for everything. I want to give thanks for the good and the n0t s0 g00d. For the blessings in my life and my good fortune. Sometimes it just comes on when I’m aware of my breath. I inhale and I realize I am alive. No past, [...]

Casual Encounter

March 8, 2012

It’s not always easy or practical to be lugging a camera around everywhere you go, but sometimes it really does pay off to be able to whip out your camera and take a totally unplanned candid shot of a destined moment. Take for instance the shot that I am including today. I was just walking [...]

Abstract Portrait

March 7, 2012

I don’t have a whole lot to say about this image other than it was taken with my iPod Touch. I can’t remember how many apps I used to get to the final image but one of the apps is Decim8. Some days you wake up feeling a little abstract. The music is A Hot [...]

Light and Shadow

March 5, 2012

Sometimes when I take a photograph I have no idea what the final image is going to look like.

Sometimes it’s the glue that holds [...]

Your Silent Face

March 1, 2012

Portraits can say so much about a person. At least in most cases. But if you’ve seen most of my other work you will know that I prefer a different approach. I like the vague. The indistinct. The undefined. The out of focus. The half seen. So here’s another silent one to gaze on. The song [...]

A Day In The Park

February 19, 2012

There have been many times when I have come across a scene and wished I had brought my camera along. Today I came upon a man reading a book as he sat on a park bench and this time I happened to have my camera with me. There was something about him that spoke to [...]

A New Year

February 18, 2012

Recently I was writing to a new friend and I was lamenting the fact that I have been in a photographic slump for some time. Her advice was to take my camera out and use it, after all it is a new year. A new beginning. In other words, Just Do It. So I did. [...]

Abstract Photography

January 15, 2012

One of the cool things about photography is that you can shoot just about anything and call it what ever you want. The image I am including today was shot with my iPod Touch. It was shot and processed using the Cameramatic app, which is just one of the many apps I have gotten for [...]
