 '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.
feedback? |  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) |
 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.
feedback? |  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? :-) |  Peppermint apparently doesn't appreciate the paparazzi. |  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)
feedback? |  A young sufer just out of the water right at sunset. |  A swan in a lake. As serene as could be. |  The Portal to Serenity |
 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.
feedback? |  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) |  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. |
 This is actually a color picture. It's a waterfall in Stone Mountain Park in Georgia.
feedback? |  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. |  One of the lakes in Stone Mountain Park. |  Another nice scene from Stone Mountain Park in Georgia. |
 Peppermint was falling asleep just sitting there. Must be a lazy Sunday.

Taken at sunset, July 3, 2004, Manisota Key, Florida. |  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) |  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.
feedback? |  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. |  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. |  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.
feedback? |  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.
feedback? |  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) |  We were recently at the Las Vegas Reserve garden and I wnadered around taking photos ehre and there. I loved the way the light was falling through the tree. |
 I was at a party a few weeks ago and was snapping away. I liked the moodiness of this shot. All criticism is welcome
feedback? |  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. |  A few weeks ago we were at the Las Vegas Springs Preseve and I took around 100 photos.
