For the past year I’ve been using this Rubbermaid Handi-box Snap Case to pack my Canon 5D, Canon 24-70mm f/2.8 L lens, Canon 100mm f/2.8 L macro lens or a Canon 135mm f/2 lens (either/or), a pouch with extra batteries and CF cards, a blower, and a strap. The only part of the kit that [...]

Huntington Gardens, Pasadena, California. The first flower shot I’ve done in a long time. I love flowers and this one had a marker but stupid me, I forgot to shoot it for reference. So, it’s a milk splash flower until I hear otherwise (because it looks like spilled milk frozen in a photograph to me).

Phuket Breathing // Thailand from artisland on Vimeo. Zoom it out, turn it up… My only criticism / feedback on this is that the images were cut a bit too fast for my brain, I needed a bit longer to saturate my brain with each one. Other than that, wonderful work. Note the camera and [...]

Sharon, Connecticut. The Sharon Audubon Center has over twenty injured raptors that we love to visit from time to time. The bald eagle is magnificent as are the great horned owls. This summer, on our way to the raptor cages we passed a small butterfly garden and given that we had some rented camera gear [...]

Huntington Gardens, Pasadena, California. Not much in bloom except roses during this visit to the gardens. I’ve never been crazy about rose flowers as photographic subjects but their buds are nice and of course, varicolored rose bokeh works.

Huntington Gardens, Pasadena, California. It was windy and I couldn’t get close enough to use my tripod and the Huntington didn’t have a lot in bloom except these poppies (excuses, excuses), so, I shot a lot of poppies. This first one’s dedicated to Georgia O’Keefe (grin). These were all taken with a Canon EOS 5D [...]

Warren, Connecticut. My friend Zarinna had a bowl full of these flowers floating in water. What a great idea and the water made for a great "armature" to hold the flowers upright for shooting. Hellebore on wikipedia.
