Summer '09

Its been awhile since I last posted anything. I'm making up for it by giving some variety of what I shot of the past two months.

This was taken on my camping trip with my girlfriend on Otter Lake in Greenfield, New Hampshire. This was the view of the sunset through a clearing of trees on the campers entrance to the beach.

It was a delicious breakfast, but I thought it would also make a good attempt at a still life photograph. (I think the omelet came out better than the picture)

This is a view of a bluff and a small cave in Newport, RI near the Breakers Mansion.

This was a photograph from the set of a short film that I was working on this summer that has been put on hold until further notice...

Lastly, this a a photo of Harkness tower at Yale University as seen from Yale's Old Campus.

I took these photos today in my mother's garden.

Back in Black... and White

So as you can tell I decided for my next entry to be a select few portraits that I took over the past couple of weeks that I thought looked good in black in white. As nice as color is, to me there's something special about black and white, something that makes me look at a picture more, think about it more... admire it more. For portraits especially I think black and white adds a little more character to it, removing and distracting factors like a colorful background or the cloths a person is wearing.

My New Blog

So today out of sheer boredom I decided that I was going to start a new blog. I'm not sure what I'll use it for though. I thought this would be a good place to start placing my photos for views, comments, suggestions. I also thought this would be a good place to start with some journalistic and literary writing... why not. So for my first post I figured I might include a nice picture. Here's a photo of a flower I found outside of Lower. It makes a great desktop wallpaper!
