Playing in the dark...

Tonight I decided to play with long exposures in the dark. I had been missing a part of my tripod, and then stumbled across it as I was cleaning the house. Below are a couple shots that turned out pretty good. 

 

 

 

This one is from the fire that we had going in the back yard. I tried out the long exposures on the hot coals just before it went out.

 

This is a very long exposure of the stars at about 9:30 pm. I would at some point like to try to leave the shutter open for a few minutes and see what happens...

Sunflowers...

I was recently asked by Liz Wright to come shoot a 90th birthday party. When I got there, I saw the prettiest flowers! Sunflowers.... one of my favorite flowers! I couldnt resist :)

The arrangements were done by Liz who owns The Purple Iris. Click here to visit her website!

Asheville Hockey :)

 

First official game was this past Saturday. My son plays for the 15U Devastators. While we were there, I of course took lots of photos. Below I have several of them to view.
