'Twas a good evening for sunset shots. There was a speed boat zooming back and forth in the bay and I was fortunate enough to capture him zooming by at just he right moment. Photo is unretouched.

" Heavenly sho.."

Here I was snapping up lots of sunset shots (I took 138 tonight) and this bird wanders rightinto the frame. Such nerve! The brid sure did make the shot, though. :-) Unretouched.



OK, I don't want to bore everyoen with all of my sunset shots, so this is the last one. Nice dramatic clouds.



My wife pointed out this tiny little spider in our garden behind a hibiscus bud and I used it for an excuse to try out my macro features. The spider is so tiny I barely saw it. The bud the spider is behind is about 3/4" long. The red backgorund is ou..(more)

" Awesome image..."




This spider was enjoying a late-night meal on our hibiscus tree in the garden. The lighting came from our security light, and this shot was made in fully automatic macro mode.

of 130 or so shots taken tonight while walking around Lake Eola in Orlando with Mrs. Mospaw, 3 were really great. This isone of them. Can anyone say postcard? :-)

" Most excellent..."




Peppermint apparently doesn't appreciate the paparazzi.

"Peppermint is actually a lot p.."




This was a really great macro shot, but it begged tohave some painterly techniques applied to it. So I did exactly that.



This is a photo of my condo's electric meter, flipped on its side. It was taken at night with ambient light, lit from behind by our porch lights. I did very little post processing, basically balancing the exposure, sharpening a bit, an adding the sep..(more)

A young sufer just out of the water right at sunset.



A swan in a lake. As serene as could be.

"Another nice capture!.."

"WOW! Very creative! I love thi.."
"Killer shot!.."




I need to retouch many of my photos, but not this one. It is posted exactly as the camera captured it. This was shot about 5 minutes after sunset, so it's a pretty long exposure.

"Beautiful picture..."
"OUTSTANDING!!!.."

I took a series of shots of this tree at sunrise in late November 2003. A few were with no flash, and a few were with the flash. The no-flash shots were OK, but the tree in silhouette wasn't very dramatic. Somehow the flash made the photo and despite..(more)

"Outstanding shot..."




Our hibiscus tree is quite the center of insect activity. I have no ideas what these bugs are, but they look otherworldly. They were nice enough to pose for several minutes while I took shot after shot after shot, and fought with the autofocus on my ..(more)



A rose, in any other color, would still look as sweet.

" Outstanding shot..."




This is actually a color picture. It's a waterfall in Stone Mountain Park in Georgia.

"This is a great capture. My ki.."

I caught the sun coming through at least three different layers of branches and leaves all at different focal lenghts. That gave it a very interesting, almost claustrophobic, feel.

" Excellent image..."




Another nice scene from Stone Mountain Park in Georgia.

" A little bit of gods country..."




Peppermint was falling asleep just sitting there. Must be a lazy Sunday.

"Very creative. Well done!.."
"WoW! Waaay too cool..."




I was taking pictures of the sunset when I heard a helicopter approaching. I pointed my camera up, waited for what seemed like the right moment, snapped the shutter, and hoped for the best. This is what I got! Not bad for hand-held, pointing up a..(more)

"looks like a shot out of a war.."




The premise of taking photos of lightning is easy. Wait for lightning, take lots of long exposures, and hope for the best. After about an hour, this is what I ended up with. I got lots of OK shots, and no truly great ones, but this one decent stri..(more)

Sea Oats blowing in a light breeze at sunset. There's no better way to relax than to sit by the Gulf of Mexico and take photos of the sun setting.

Pepper the cat was sitting on the wall staring at some birds. Seemed like the perfect feline pose and she paused long enough for me to grab a quick shot with my wife's camera.

"Now that is a true cool cat. .."
"Very nice and a clean sensor t.."
"Nice portrait..."

I'm still getting used to my new camera, and Pepper the cat was a semi-willing participant. She blinks a lot faster than my camera shutter. Of 12 shots, this is the only one where her eyes are open.

"I think you did a great job ge.."




View full size for full effect. I have a friend who has a nice view of the Gold Coast Casino in Las Vegas and wanted to take a shot. We're about 3 miles away and I used my 300mm lens at full zoom. This shot was in focus, but the heat of the day (i..(more)

Pepper endured another photoshoot as I got used to the camera. This one is the besto f those shots.

"Great shot! It really shows P.."

Pepper tolerated one more photoshoot, and even got curious about the camera. I guess I need to adjust the f-stops to control DOF a bit better. Fortunately, I caught her eyes in focus.

Beautiful clouds tonight at sunset. I was facing east when I took this. Only afterward did I realize it was ISO 1600. I thought those exposures seemed a bit short. :) I am getting used to the new camera, though.

We were out on the Strip last night and I grabbed a few shots here and there. This is tne Wynn hotel from an unusual angle just before sunset.

I also got a shot of the Stardust last night. This one bears preserving through photos, since they're rumored to be tearing it down next yeat.

Pepper, my ever-tolerant subject, was taking a rest in the early-morning sun of the dining room. Although a colorful image, sepia seemed to capture the mood a bit better. Mild processing in Photoshop.

Many moons ago, a friend of mine adopted a couple of my cats because I was moving and couldn't have cats in the house. She decided to keep them. This is one of the cats, Adobe. I was visiting them near Orlando this past weekend, and he was being curi..(more)

A few weeks ago we were at the Las Vegas Springs Preseve and I took around 100 photos. These are some of the nicer ones.
