A few choice pics from the holiday weekend. 3 days are simply not enough. Unfortunately “Arimona” got sick on Sunday and had to spend glorious Monday indoors…
Still, we got to play around on Sunday and have the kids jump up and down on the deck as we pointed the flash from all different places. The “night” shots are a few experiments with different power settings and light directions - nothing fancy, just a bunch of playful shots…

13 October 2008 tagged estera, lima, peru, Portrait, work with no comments

Over 40 years weaving sharp estera walls in the outskirts of Lima, Peru have left this man's hands and face marked with the burden of hard work.
I’m finally getting around to getting my stuff together, and foremost on my list is digging through my archive of photos and making some sense out of them. I have already started uploading Ariana’s set to flickr, unfortunately not all in hi res, but still creating an nice archive of her pics.
Today I dug this one up from my photoshelter archive and sent it over to JPG Magazine and submitted it for an upcoming feature. Users decide which photos get published, so, please, stop by and comment and give some props (VOTE FOR) to my image, hopefully it makes it into their next issue.
As time permits I will be adding more to my jpg and flickr archives.

Are in the past. brighter days are ahead.
This is a recent HDR image I shot from the front of our house. The clouds are the remnants of Hurricane Ike as they made their way up Northern Virginia. We got pretty soaked later in the evening…
