Sunset at the NC Museum of Art

Latest entry into the Round Corners of the Triangle project.  Didn’t get all I wanted before the light died, but not too shabby.

Behold the Power of the D300!

I just thought I would post a few full sized photos for once.  Behold the Power of the D300!  These are part of my Round Corners in the Triangle Project

It was a nice evening... Thought I'd play around

Funny Signs… Revisited!

Screwed by the Town of Cary

While working on my Out of Work Project I got a tip of a place to look at. I've got a thing for odd signs and this one easily qualifies. Welcome to Cary, NC. I'll be back to get a better angle on this one!

Isn't it odd how if you do something long enough, odd/awesome opportunities make themselves visible?  Well for me, that's how half the interesting stuff I get to do happens.  This time it involved my almost excessive "hobby" of bike riding.  Add in my goal of working in the ad industry and what do you get?  A great opportunity and some very cool new friends.

Enjoying What You Do

I read the NY Times almost religiously.  Yes it's been at the center of a few controversies over the last few years mostly because its "news" stories, but I don't really read that part.  I don't think there is such a thing as an "objective" report, so I get my news from the BBC and Jon Stewart.  The BBC seems →

Oh how I miss City life…

One of the many many things I miss about city life is the wonderful sound each city makes.  Each city seems to have their own unique sound and even neighborhoods have their own sound.  Take Lisbon, Portugal for example.  The traditional Fado concert doesn't really get started until 2 or 3 Am.  And it's common practice to have them in →

Getting Creepy: Photo Shoot #2

Sometimes perseverance really does work.  And it doesn't hurt to have a little luck too.  Well for the latest chapter of the fashion shoot, both worked out wonderfully.  I got access to the Arboretum and the rain stayed away.  It was miserably hot, but this is the south.  Heat and humidity...  what's new? The arboretum is everything I hoped it would be and →

Oh Photography… I could do this as a Profession!

Pro Photography is a crazy industry.  Once you're in, you're good to go for the most part.  It's all about networking, being adaptable, and most importantly... being reliable.  And that doesn't just mean being on time and keeping to deadlines: it's about producing reliable work that suits the client's exact needs.  But getting that big break, that's a totally different →

The Shimano Cage

Over the last few days, I've been completely occupied with getting the exact shot I wanted for a spec ad I'm working on.  I'm not sure if the ad is finished, but when do I ever consider something "finished?"  Pretty much never.  I might put it down for a few days, weeks, years... but, the only reason I ever call →
