Digital Ayn and Kelsey
Friday, May 25th, 2018
As I promised, here are some photos from this shoot with Ayn and Kelsey that I shot with my digital camera. I was still shooting with my Nikon D7000 back when these were taken. Just a few snaps of the two of them in the window light in my old studio. And I played with […]
Grandkids
Friday, September 9th, 2016
I did a few grandkid photos the other day. Grandkids are one of the few good things about getting old.

A few more photos of Athena, this time taken with a “real” camera, my D7000 and my 50mm f/1.4 lens. I like that lens for portraits. These were shot stopped down one stop to f/2. It’s nice and sharp there, with a shallow depth of focus. The originals of these, of course, are in color, […]
Ayn’s Back
Tuesday, May 15th, 2012
Yes, Ayn is back with some more photos from my test shoot with this new lighting style. And, of course, that is Ayn’s back in the photos. I’ll be working more with this light from time to time. Thanks again to MC Grain for freely sharing this technique with me. For those who care about the […]
More Angie
Monday, May 7th, 2012
Here are a couple more photos of Angie. Taken the same day as the other photos featuring her baby bump. But I felt like trying to get a couple portraits of Angie to show what a really sweet, wonderful person she is. And she did have a bit of that “pregnant glow” going on that […]
We Interrupt This Blog…
Saturday, May 7th, 2011
…for a personal message. I’m in Florida on a family vacation for the magna cum laude graduation of my younger daughter from the University of Tampa. That’s her with her boyfriend in the photo above as she arrived at her seat following the processional. My other daughter, her husband and my grandson are also with […]
Software Alternatives
Monday, April 18th, 2011
I’ve been working on finding better ways to post-process photos done in bright sunlight. I think I’m beginning to improve the results. I talked with my old friend, Tim Black, about my problems and he suggested I try the Nikon software to process the RAW files. I’ve had bad experiences with Nikon’s software in the […]
Spring Has Sprung
Friday, April 15th, 2011
I know it’s spring here in Ohio because I’ve already shot the first frozen model of the year here. Thanks to Angie we slipped out to our favorite local waterfall for a shoot earlier this week. We got a later start than we had hoped for, and, of course, the sun was out full force, […]
Dance and the D7000
Friday, March 25th, 2011
One of my major motivations for getting the Nikon D7000 was the improvement I thought it would make in what I could do with dance photography. But I really had no idea how huge an improvement it would be over my D200. Now I know. I’ve been shooting dance since the 1960s. Back when I […]
A Lovely Pair
Sunday, March 6th, 2011
As expected, this past week has been exceptionally busy. Getting tax stuff ready. Trip to Athens for two days to photograph the winter concert at the Ohio University School of Dance. Appointment with my accountant. And a quick visit from my daughter who flew up from Tampa to do an interview for grad school. I […]
