Master Chief

One of the benefits of having a 6-year-old son...cool toys. Here's Halo's Master Chief with some photoshop work.

Another barn

Our kitty...

...that likes to hang out in our bath tub.

Snowy morning

Barn that sits at the entrance to my subdivision. Shot with the new Fuji Finepix F300 ...so far I've been happy with the little P&S camera.

Batman

Blazer Pool

Got a new camera recently, the Fuji FinePix F300 EXR, so I hope to start posting more often. After I've had time to use it some more, I'll post a review of it as well. One neat thing it does is creates on-the-fly panoramas by just clicking the shutter and panning the camera. Here's one photo that I tested it out with.

Macro Fun

Playing with my extension tubes for macro shots paired with my 50mm f/1.8 lens. These are of a glass paperweight ball with the suspended bubbles in the middle backlit by a lighted snowman that changes color.

Christmas Photo

Moonrise

Shot this a couple weeks ago, but kinda forgot about it and just pulled it off the memory card. It's the same scene as the iPhone pic in the previous post, but I dragged out the good camera for this one.

Shot this last week and am just now getting around to posting it.

Wedding reflections...

While shooting a wedding in Virginia this past weekend, some of the words spoken during the ceremony really resonated with me. Here was a young couple getting ready to start their married lives together and the words from the minister were probably the same you'd hear at most weddings…there will be both good times and bad, ups and downs, peaks and valleys—whatever you want to call them. As someone who's been married for 17 years, I can really attest to this. But somehow hearing these words this time made me stop and think and really appreciate what I have—the best family anyone could ask for. And even though things aren't perfect all the time, there's always a lot of love in our family and I'm truly thankful for that.
