April 15 - Tax Day

Thank goodness small business owners can deduct their employee's salaries.
"Helper" is probably a bit of a stretch when it comes to these two employees. 
Tucker manages the camera equipment by laying on it -
yes that really is a $2000 Canon lens he is reclining upon.

Not sure if Houdini is guarding the tripod or trying to steal the
photographer's cushion.

A moment of Stillness

Spring is the time of new life - meet Baby Alex! This was taken at 10pm last night...amid a rare moment of stillness with him. One ACTIVE one month old.

Did you know the crows are starting to nest?


This is how I feel sometimes


{NOT} Self Portrait

My brother rocked it friday night with his favorite Bruce Springsteen "Dancing In The Dark"


selfie ... or not



doing a self portrait is very hard. 
1. select subject matter that reflects me. 
2.  select a favorite spot that reflects favorite photo subject.  
3.  get subject ready for foto shoot.
4.  take lots of pictures.
5. waaa????
 
this is a very hard project
sleepless nights ahead of deadline
 
oh me

Changing Light

I love love LOVE the first image. Not so sold on the second image. Just proves that night photography is so vastly different!! (PS: I guess partly the technique used may have played a big role in this, but the twilight blue color vs the during the day brown is astonishing!)

I love this.  It was taken on my way from east coast to west coast.  I like the wide angle as I don't shoot that very often.  Just me and Phoebe.  It was great.

Taupe - I am digging those natural muted colors!

This was hand-held (thank you image stabilizer!) at a water drainage near Index.
And because I thought this was just a neat image, here is a waterfall about a mile later on the same road.
