Scenes from an icy rain in Webster, NY today.

Watkins Glen State Park

Almost everything in this photo is very old. The antique Bible was published about 1823 by Kimber & Sharpless Publishers. It was a gift this past Christmas from a brother-in-law. The blue violin vase on the left was given to my mother by my maternal great grandmother. The old,dusty kerosene lamp was one my parents had for as long as I can remember. The old window came out of Mom's house (part of which is well over 100 years old) back in the sixties. I found a couple of them up in her attic and brought them home. I've left the dirt on them so far because I think it gives them character when I use them in a still life.

This isn't my sharpest or best lit shot of a water drop, but it's my first time achieving this shape. A collision with no stem and a nice ripple made for a pretty interesting shot I think. Please let me know what you all think, any suggestions or comments will be welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

I think the treacherous path was worth the journey to get to see the Lower Falls along the Genesee River in downtown Rochester, NY.

All of my recent uploads lately have been with my 70-200 L, heres one with my sigma.

First time shooting in full daylight, wasn't too good with it. This was the day i met Steve, check out his stream here --> www.flickr.com/photos/steveskinner/

Yesterday at the end of the day finally some free time to shoot. The weather was suitable for architecture but it could not be too far away. Also wanted to have a return to the Walterbos complex in Apeldoorn and that's a half hour drive for me. Was there a while ago with Susan Sanderus , Eddy Blokhuis and Joel Tjintjelaar . I am inspired by Joel's Frozen Music to shoot this picture.

Autumn colors from around Riverfront Park.

While Ricketts Glen has so many rivers in the park, it's almost impossible to see them all in one day, I decided to stick to a few of the one's I encountered. By doing this, I wouldn't be running around like a mad man looking for the next river. But rather, I could capture the rivers I did shoot from different angles, without feeling rushed about getting my shots and returning home unhappy with the images I did get.

ABOUT THIS IMAGE

 

The Getty with Cloud

  

I went to the J. Paul Getty Museum in Brentwood, Los Angeles, California to see the Photographers Ray K. Metzker and Robert Mapplethorpe. I was amazed at Metzker's work whom I had never before seen and was disappointed with only seeing about 15 of Mapplethorpe's work which was shown. However the entire floor had many other fantastic photographers to see and I was very pleased. I also spent the rest of the day making images of the Center, which was designed by the Architect Richard Meier.
