San Marco Square, Venice

6 03 2012

I have become enamored with night time photography, particularly showing iconic skylines in new light. This was a rare quiet moment in San Marco Square during Carnival in Venice.





September 11th Tribute in HDR

12 09 2010

September 11th is always a somber reminder of the times we live in. The memorial lights can be seen from anywhere in NYC. My thoughts go out to the families and friends of all the victims. Hoping that at some point in my lifetime the world will be a better place.

Trapeze NYC Style

11 09 2010

The original idea was to shoot with the Sept 11th memorial blue lights in the background, but they mysteriously went off last night. Will try again tonight…

Water Like Silk

8 08 2010

This was my first attempt at HDR with a super long exposure during the day to create the silk-like water effect. Right in back of where I am standing is about a thousand foot drop off the real falls. That picture to follow…





An Earthly Event That Can Be Seen From Space

24 07 2010

They say that the South African Sardine Run is such a massive event that it can be viewed from space. Well, while at the Sardine Run this year, I pointed my camera in the other direction. Apparently the sky is also so clear that you can see space from the Sardine Run!

South Africa Serendipity

Took a day off of diving to explore the area around Mbotyi. The views are pretty spectacular. I saw this image in my mind the moment we drove past it.

Day 39 of 365: When In Doubt, Shoot a Church

10 02 2010

Had no time to shoot today, starting to get desperate to keep the 365 project going. Can’t go wrong shooting a church. So I decided to play around with the high ISO on the D3s. – I found a dark church to shoot to challenge myself. For the geeks like me who care, this is ISO 25,600. The image came out very two dimensional to me, but hey, it’s an image for today and saves me from not fulfilling the project today…

Love the contrast of the modern playground design against the old stone building.

For most New Yorkers, this is actually the “real New York”

Paradise on a cold winter night. NYC never ceases to amaze me.
