OK need to add an additional element..............hey wait I have this 1800's chest! Drag out the chest, wipe off years of accumulated dust and stage the swag in the chest. Take photo.......not… -
Re: Wrong Place, Wrong Time

I have experience with cameras going back to '76, developing, printing, etc... But my photography really grew after I purchased a DSLR and went to Africa on Safari (with the owners manual to… -
Semifinals
Last night's game was as exciting as any MLB game I've ever seen. The A's had the worst record in regular season play, 2 and 12.

FS: Canon EF 70-250 mm f/4 L USM Lens. Mi

Re: Film & now
John, I think this is an excellent portrait for the reasons you described. Your father does seem intense, itelligent, and competitive. The drama of the lighting helps convey this feeling. If the light were less directional and you could see his left eye better, would the photo have the same intensity? Business photos are… -
