sunrise, Mexico, beach

And who in her lonely slip, who by barbiturate,
who in these realms of love, who by something blunt,
and who by avalanche, who by powder,
who for his greed, who for his hunger,
and who shall I say is calling?

This is friend John who is a retired fireman. This machine was the first one he worked on, we were very pleased to find it. John was a fireman at the time of the IRA Brighton bombing, of the Grand Hotel, in 1984. He was one of the first into the hotel to rescue injured/dead people from the unstable building.

Friday night fireworks mark the end of the Isle of Man TT Races. To get this position and a reflection off the sea means going out to the furthest Pier. Conditions were almost ideal.

The impending sunset dragged me down to the local estuary tonight
60sec exposure across the water

We had to drive to my hometown of Squaw Valley, CA. While there we noticed the surrounding mountains full of snow. We drove about 10 mins and came upon this area. He had never seen falling snow before. This photo perfectly captured the moment.

People like us, we don’t
Need that much
Just someone that starts
Starts the spark in our bonfire hearts

How do you get over a dozen Lutheran pastors to smile on command?
Line them up for a group shot and state, "On the count of 3; say 'MONEY!'" Not perfect but no frowns.
Volunteered at the last minute to document the installation of our newest senior pastor at Mount Olive Lutheran Church, Aurora, CO. Almost got caught without enough power to finish service and this group shot.
Major lesson learned, "Take control and organize!" Here needed to put the older and less trim emeritus pastors behind the trimmer and, usually, younger pastors. The closer to 6-pack abs the better!
Can see all faces.
Any other suggestions are welcome.

John F Kennedy's first campaign stop when running for president was at this location on January 25th, 1960.. It is located at City Hall Plaza in my hometown of Nashua NH

Meads Mill is a favourite spot for many. There's an old gatehouse and a small waterfall. It's where I practice long exposures.

I was pleased to get this result at our local country club on 4th of July 2015. The reflection of the fireworks and the remnants of the sunset behind give it such an awesome affect! I will have to search down the EXIF, can't believe it isn't attached to the image! UGH

my best friends daughter and my son are the cutest.

The Auroras put on a show last night. It was cold up on that mountain, but so worth it. Elk were still bugling in the distance. Taken in Central Washington State.

Frost is but slender weeks away,
Tonight the sunset glow will stay,
Swing to the north and burn up higher
And Northern Lights wall earth with fire.
Nothing is lost yet, nothing broken,
And yet the cold blue word is spoken:
Say goodbye to the sun.
The days of love and leaves are done.

I photo this tree every year, this time he had just put a growth spurt in so he was light green, and the sun emphasised this.

This was taken earlier tonight at our last home football game of the season. I just thought it was a fun candid and wanted to share.

Tower over all,
we see
those leaves light upon the ground,
trod upon, no second thought
because the people like the sound

Taking this photo did pose some difficulties. The wind direction affected the outcome very much. Handling the dark cityscape on one side and the bright fireworks on the other was the biggest challenge to me.

This is the image of this groom seeing his bride for the first time...at the wedding.

First time shooting a wedding, learned a lot

My favorite sunrise, sunset type pic. I was just starting photography last year when I took this one.

In Lx Factory in the city of Lisbon

This was taken as a random shot in the Shenandoah Mountains in Virginia. The way the sunset gave the impression that there was a fire in the distance was what I was hoping to achieve.

Dry, dry summer and everything's dead. One night of rain and the flowers cropped up the next day. All over the place!

This was SOOC, no editing.

One of the most amazing sunsets I have seen in years

I've reached a frustrating point where no matter how hard I try, I can't seem to improve my moon shots. So, I thought I would try something different instead.

No EXIF date available.

A wider view of the 4 hectare brush fire in Lake Cowichan yesterday afternoon.

4 Hectare brush fire in Lake Cowichan from about 15 km away from the blaze.

Yesterday I had my first paid photo shoot, and couldn't be happier with the results. My client was ecstatic with the results as well! Along with photos, I also made my client a short video. All in all it was a very successful photo shoot! With no professional schooling under my belt, I am very proud of my work here!

Taken two years ago, just going through old stuff and thought this "mistake" made a cool abstract.

This was taken on slide film and scanned. This was the first time some of these kids had seen a movie. They live in the rainforest of Costa Rica with very limited electricity.

This is a friends son taken his first time on a ropes course.

Mount Pleasant, South Carolina

Dramatic sunsets in the strangest way since the fires started raging in our province. Thick smoke clinging to the valley makes for difficult shooting conditions.

I think these are called butterfly blossoms? Not sure but when I got in close I saw how spectacular they are individually even on such a small scale.

Fourth of July in Frisco, Colorado.

Fourth of July, 2015 fireworks in Frisco, Colorado over Dillon Reservoir. EXIF details available below.

This is an unedited photo I took while in a little patch of forest in the park nearby my house. I have never seen flowers like this and they reminded me of fireworks.

This shot was taken while driving. I couldn't have asked for better settings that day.

Another experimental work of mine. Took a photo of the sunrise in Hawaii on my back lanai, then added some digital artwork. Parts drawn were the left and right rocky hills and the city in the middle.
