Photography Show at the Langhorne Coffee House

I'm excited to be February's "Artist on the Avenue" at the Langhorne Coffee House. I'll be showing some of my favorite nature images made right here in Langhorne where I live. This Friday, February 5th is the opening party from 6:00 until 9:00. Of course there will be great music and food. If you can't make it Friday, no worries. The images will be hanging until the end of the month and, of course, they are for sale. Could be a nice Valentine's gift.
Here are a few of the images that will be in the show.

New Sneaks

I think I've wanted to get the kids Chuck Taylors since they were born. This week we went out and got two pairs of red Chucks. There are many more pictures of them to come. As always, click the picture for a larger view. Oh, and it's completely random that the previous post is of Chucks too. Hmmm.......or is it?

After the Holidays...

It's time to dig out from a ton of shooting over the holidays. There was a pep rally for the Army Navy football game at the steps of the art museum and guess who was there? Hey Rock, stand here for a sec...
One of those moments that took a split second and I forgot even happened until I was going through the pictures.

Beautiful Snowy Wedding

I shot a beautiful wedding in the snow on Saturday.

Take a look at a slideshow:

Fish Market

Last Friday I was in the Reading Terminal Market for a quick bite while shooting the Army Navy festivities around the city when I came upon this.
Another image that has a quality that I really like. Click the image for a larger view.

It's True!

Trying New Things

I've been trying out a few new things. My new Leica DLux 4 and the Lightroom 3 Beta. Lots more to come.

New Orleans Street Performers

This past weekend Beth and I were in New Orleans to shoot a wedding. It was our first time there. This is an images of a group of street musicians we found on our way back from breakfast. This is a time where I think so many elements spontaneously came together. I walked up, put a few bucks in their guitar case, got down on one knee, snapped off a few shots and we were off.
This was early in the trip and by the time we got home, I just about forgot the encounter. But when looking at the files I realized I had something special. I'm sure I couldn't have set this up any better if I tried. Click the images for a larger view. This is a shot where the longer you look, the more you'll see. Let me know if you like it.

Lightpainting

I've been wanting to try "lightpainting" for a while now and these are some of my first attempts. I've been inspired by a great photographer Dave Black and his book, The Way I See It. I am having a ball with the technique of lightpainting. I'll explain a bit about how I created these images. First, wait until the sun has gone down and kids are asleep, or at least on their way. With the camera secure on a tripod I set up the composition and pre-focus. I then turn off all lights so there is complete darkness. The shutter opens and I begin "painting" the subject with light coming from a small flashlight. The longer the flashlight stays in one spot the brighter that spot will render, so I'm constantly moving the light around for roughly 45 seconds. Each picture is different and I'm finding it takes a bit of practice.
The keys and the plane belonged to my grandfather and the baseball glove is my son's.
