Brown Pelicans at Lynnhaven Inlet


Several dozen Brown Pelicans where feasting on Rock Fish scraps thrown in the water by people cleaning their daily catch. This Male (yellow head), rather then sit in the water with the other birds, would sit on the buoy and wait for the fisherman to throw a scrap and dive in to out maneuver the other birds.

Lanpher inspired shot – Turtle in Mexico


Keith Lanpher (a noted Norfolk Va. Based photographer) does a lot of soft Vignette styled photos. I tried to duplicate part of that style with a high intensity light in the middle, higher f stop and 1/250 shutter speed at depth. A small turtle on a shelf posed quietly while I tried about 15 different settings.

The Old House


Chris Crumley was shooting in an old burned out house.
He was talking with the model Tina MacFarlane
and the intent look on her face struck me.
Something different for me….

Lynnhaven Inlet Winter Sunset


Lynnhaven Inlet sunset with a clear blue sky after a mild cold front.
A great cloud formation made this a beautiful sight. A seagull passed just
as I shot. Canon 5D, f32 at 1/160, 70mm ISO 200 manual shot.
I have been comparing the Mark II EOS vs. the 5D. The next shot will be
from the Mark II.

My Chelsea Buddy


I cannot use his name because I failed to get a model release ; )
He was helping mom in the yard and caught my attention because he was working so hard.
Notice the blur at rake end!
Hard work is a rare attribute in young people of today.
Maybe hope for the next generation.
