Isolation
When I first saw the subject for this week, I was thinking of going a totally different direction with the subject. We had a photoshoot at the shelter this weekend however where the dogs get dressed up in their Halloween costumes. Once I took this image however, I decided to go in a totally different…
Read MoreNatural Light
I enjoy using natural light for my photographs. It enables you to be more spontaneous with your photographs and not worry about lugging around a lot of heavy equipment. With natural light you could let the light fall directly on the subject, so that they have nice even lighting Or you can use the light…
Read MoreMotion
Sometimes rescue animals are very distrusting of that big black box (camera) that you are holding to your face. One of the ways that I get them more relaxed is to play with them. Once they are in motion running after a ball or toy they can sometimes become oblivious to the camera. Here are…

As industries moved out, but eventually someone had the great idea to turn the area into a combination of residential and commercial spaces. Buildings were renovated and turned…
Read MoreWide Open
This weeks challenge was to shoot wide-open. Wide-open refers to the widest aperture that your lens allows. Depending on the lens you use, this could vary greatly. I have one fixed lens that I can shoot at an f- stop as low as 1.4. On another lens it only goes down to 3.5 or 4.0…

Declan appears miniature in relation to this huge arch. This next image is not actually a doorway, but Declan is posed in front…

The head tilt of a dog is an adorable feature we humans seem to melt with. In the case of a puppy, it doesn’t matter what kind of trouble he got himself into, one tilt of the head and a smile is brought to our face and all is forgiven. Some speculation includes: Tilting their…
