Fun Girl

A perfect example of how depth of field can completely make a background become insignificant.  The statue is clearly the dominant figure in this photo.  Having a fast lens allows this to happen.

Look Up And See It Yourself

While walking out of my door.  On my way to run some errands, I looked up and saw this.  I knew I would have killed myself for not taking this photo, so I went upstairs, grabbed my Canon 5D mk2 and took 3 shots. The first one was blown out.  Second was almost there.  This was perfect.

You are looking at a photo which was taken straight from RAW to the screen.

Earlier Than Dawn

The blog was started several years ago.  If you select the "Archives" you'll see the previous rendition of this photo blog, archived.  This photo is from that blog.

I AM BROOKLYN

A graphic designed photograph taken of Alvin "Brooklyn Born" Alverez.  The elements were added in post, using the same techniques as I have used in some of my award winning graphic design work.

The Frying Pan's Sunflower

Deep in the bowels of a social gathering spot (and Lightship} located along the Hudson River (called The Frying Pan), I found a miniature sunflower resting inside of a watering can.  Dark and what you'd expect of the innards of a salty ship to look like, I found this wonderful touch of feminine beauty.  It stands out as lovely as the establishment's manager, Danielle.

The Frying Pan is a Lightship docked near by.  I photographed this using my friend's Canon 7D and my Canon 70-300 F4-5.6 L Series lens.
