First Photos from Bob!

Bob got his first two photos of the year turned in this week. One from a recent trip to D.C. where he worked to capture a great photo of the new Martin Luther King, Jr. memorial at night with limited limiting. The other is a great photo illustrating that rule about "fill the frame". This photo just would not be as great if the rib eating was lost in the middle of a photo of the entire dining room. But here we get just the action!

7 Days Portfolio - Mary Alice (part 1)

Our first official 7 Days portfolio has been submitted. Seven photos in seven days. However, Mary Alice did say that only 6 of those photos turned out really well...so her 7 Day challenge has 6 photos. And that is still awesome!

Here are the first three...with her captions...

Breaking the Rules - Emily

Our first photos of the year from Emily. Yea!!

Emily says all of these...spread out over the next three posts...are some of her efforts at breaking rules. And she is clear...she loves breaking rules!

First up...some interesting perspective on portraits...

Fog - Emil

One morning early this month we had a very foggy morning. I thought the white fog against the dark tree trunks and the still green grass was a nice contrast.

Then I made one change to my settings...and got a very interesting photo of that same fog. And no, this has not been converted to black and white in photoshop...this is how the color shot turned out. Not sure if it is spooky, ethereal...or just boring. But I like it.
