Amidst the goldenrod…
…a spider. Taken at Chestnut Ridge the other day. More from that hiking session here. (Life got better when I discovered (a) that macro photography exists, and (b) that my camera has a special macro-focus mode.)

Thinking about Light
I took this quick photo of Carla and Rosa, enjoying the sun by the patio door, last week. It was just a quick “Hey, that’s cute, let me grab my phone” kind of thing; I didn’t put any effort into … Continue reading

At the Harbor
My Sunday Photography Walk was at Buffalo’s Outer Harbor again, with a side-trek into the Tifft Nature Preserve. Photos here…but these are my favorites from the day’s work: This next is my favorite photo from yesterday. This makes me think … Continue reading
Notes of an Emerging Photographer: The Ridge, again
Heavens, I think I may be actually getting better at this photography thing! I know it’s only been a short while with this camera, but I’m getting to the point already where carrying this camera around feels natural. Looking around … Continue reading
Announcing: HULK! no…VIJAY! no…wait, we’ll figure this out.
And who, you may ask, is this? Well, may I present the Formerly-Named “Hulk”. (We’re working on his new name. Stay tuned.) It’s funny how when you lose a dog, people wait a respectable amount of time before asking, “Hey, … Continue reading

Literary Photography
I took these on a whim the other night: I opened up one of my Complete William Shakespeare collections to Henry’s Crispin’s Day speech from Henry V, laid my glasses on the book, and took a few photos. It was an experiment … Continue reading
Visions from the Outer Harbor
Some shots from my photography session down at the Buffalo Outer Harbor this past Sunday: More photos from that day, with full-size versions, in this Flickr album. By the way, I think I am now going to start using HUE … Continue reading

Let there be exposure, part III: Aperture? I hardly knew ‘er!
Continuing the adventures of photography! Now that I have a camera where I can actually change pro-style photographic settings, I’m learning a lot about…stuff I never knew before. One of the biggest things I’m learning about is aperture control, and … Continue reading
