A Game

This is a photo from about four years ago at church event at the lake. Do you know the verse that’s being put...

Shaadi

An awful lot of folks are getting married these days. For us brown folk, we can find our own or hey there’s always online arrangement! So for fun I went on Shaadi.com to remind myself why I still don’t really consider marriage-via-Internet a good idea….This site never, never lets me...

Incoming Light

Trying to capture some evening light fall on my flowers.  I know I’ve missed updates for two days but I’m working on a typography tutorial to share with you guys. :-) I’ll try and keep posting pictures in the...

Mini Trees

There are flowers within flowers!...

Father’s Hands

My father holds some plums that ripened on his trees in the backyard. I hope everyone had a wonderful Fathers’ day! [edit] My friend Henry just pointed out that there’s a ‘heart’ on one of the plums!!! I didn’t even see it! It’s completely not something I did on...

A Drink with Memory

Where did I collect all these things? Oh a story with each…. But I kinda just like the tiny bottles. :-) The horse is from when I went to India 10 years ago, and the small hippo is a wind up toy I couldn’t part with. Who knows how old it...

Orchid

Some orchids my aunt received for her birthday. Used some HDR-Esque filtering. I didn’t actually take 3 exposures like I usually do. I like it. Looks almost like a...

Review: Kampai

Japanese is one of my favorite cuisines. I love how diverse their food is in both taste and presentation. I have been wanting to get better at food photography and decided to start with my favorite kinds of food. I went to Kampai the other night and had brought my camera along so I could shoot...

Georgian Sunsets

I always am bragging about the awesome sunsets we get here in Ga. I was heading out to get some sushi the other around 8:45 for a late dinner and saw this! Those are some crazy awesome clouds huh? The fire and the eggplant colors.. spectacular.  I was even more excited about the clouds...

Get Lucky

Sea to Shining Sea

A reflection in downtown Atlanta. I was stationed out there during Chic-Fil-A’s great cow...

Photos from the Past

I’ve been into photography as a hobby for almost eight years now. This means I have plenty of embarrassingly bad photos I considered good several years ago. I discovered, though, that I have some good photos that are still good today, in my opinion. When I was younger I loved photographing...

Up the Creek With a Paddle Jun08

Up the Creek With a ...

I haven’t done a personal post in a while so here’s one about my weekend.  I went Kayaking this weekend for the first time ever. My friend Sidd took these pictures with his waterproof camera so they’re kind of blurry but I have to show you how awesome that day was. I chose the yellow...

Single Drop

I’m working on my macro skills. Currently, I’m using a 28-300mm zoom with some extenders to get close enough. The dropoff in incoming light is kind of tempting me to get a 100mm or 150mm macro sometime in the future. However, I’ve already got a 11-16mm wide angle planned for this summer...

New York City : Rad...

We didn’t spend enough time in New York City for me to truly be able to explore and capture this bustling, beautiful city. I’ve got to make a trip up there sometime. And a trip to Florida since one of my long-time buddies now lives there. I might have an interesting summer...

Rex

My cousin’s dog, Rex. He’s getting on in years but has only sweetened with age. What a special doggie....

Self Portrait 01

I have a pretty bad fear of pictures of me. But no good photographer worth their salt is afraid of the camera. So… here, have a self portrait.  Not bad for being spur of the moment, no makeup and a hair tousle at 11:30 at night huh? Actually, please don’t answer that...

Fun with Bokeh

If nothing else, the greenery is great for some epic bokeh. Taken with just the stock 18-55. What an amazing lens for it being just kit. The image is wallpaper...

Cherokee National Fo...

A mountain in the reserve. Playing with exposure blending and some color shifts. Ugh cold drugs make it hard to see whether the image is good or  not.  These are, as aptly named, the...
