Cicada Skeleton
Cicada Skeleton macro made with 18 focus stacked images. Cicadas molt (shed their skin) when they become adult insects. This is the skeletal structure they leave behind.
Stock Photography
A basket full of pine cones is my stock photo this week. With a white background it can easily be removed in photoshop and the basket can be placed in any picture as a prop.
Ex Groom
This client asked for the groom to be removed from two different photographs.
We did this by going back to her original wedding images and finding photos that would replace the background when the groom is removed. I think these work well and my client will be very pleased.
Giant Gingerbread Wonderland
Today was the grand opening of the lifesize gingerbread village at the Niagara Culinary Institute.
Each building is sponsored by a local business and the gingerbread is baked and assembled by students.
Christmas decorations adorn the facility.
Parents can purchase tickets so their children can partake in holiday activities like face painting, baking cookies, writing letters to Santa. Children may also visit Santa in the Gingerbread house.
Blessed Ones
Our newest grandchild Peyton gets baptized last Sunday at St. Joseph's church in Niagara Falls.
My son Dan and his wife Sarah proudly present their daughter.
Posed picture with Peyton's Godparents in front of St. Joseph statue.
Sach's Bridge
From the dark side. With the cheaper lens camera, shooting in to the light creates flaring issues. Sometimes the flares can be useable but the dust on my lens generated light spots that needed to be eliminated.
Big Red Covered Bridge
The other side of Marsh creek affords another great opportunity to capture this magnificent covered bridge.
Sherfy Barn
A long zoom in from across the field of the Sherfy barn from the spot as the image below. The best thing about a bridge camera is its versatility zooming to save you intense cropping.
Red Covered Bridge
Sach's covered bridge over Marsh creek in Gettysburg is my second favorite bridge to shoot. McConnell's Mills is my favorite but with both bridges the time of day and the season make or break a great picture.
Halloween Hounds
It's that time of year again. Oscar and Nittany are dressing up as a Pig and a Chicken this year for Halloween. I made up some photo composites to celebrate.
Color on the Rise
There is nothing artistic here, I just liked the colors this morning of the incredible sunrise. Just absolutely beautiful.
Sunset test
I have been getting familiar with the new Aurora 2018. If you like HDR images, this program is a must have. This sunset in my backyard was four images. I am looking forward to getting out to better locations to do some fall shots soon.
New Aurora 2018
The new Aurora 2018 has put a huge smile on my face. This is just a quick test from my backyard to experiment. So far I like what I see. I would highly recommend taking the free tutorials that come with this program to fully understand its capabilities.
