Waiting: Avalon

This was a candid shot from a engagement portrait session. I enjoyed the vivid colors so much I thought it would make a good oil painting, too.

Redwoods National Park Panorama

These trees are far too tall for the traditional photo format, so I stitched a few shots together in order to try and capture the perspective a little better.

While visiting the park, I learned that these trees grow to such great heights in order to sequester the perpetual fog in the area.

There’s so much more accessible water in the sky compared to what’s available in the ground, that they evolved over time to scrape the clouds as they rolled through.

Just amazing.

Reyka Vodka

Trying to do a little dark-field photography of some of my favorite liquors. Rule number one? GET RID OF DUST. I was amazed how much dust shows up in this style of studio lighting.

Busy Bee

I can’t help but notice these things. The lavender outside of my studio building is in full effect and about thirty bees were busy collecting some of the best pollen around. Damn, I bet that’s going to be some good honey.
