Luke's bike in reflection pool


Tina sitting on Luke's bike in a reflecting pool we built in Virginia Beach.
This shot would not have happen without the help of Troy Clifton.
He pushed the bike (bad battery) 2 miles in the rain to the facility.
Chris Crumley was the lead photographer and did some GREAT stuff.

Another try. Same plant the next day. Two flies (notice large eyes) cuddling.

Michelle's Rose


I have been taking flower pictures for Mother's day gifts. Ring Strobes,
180mm macro lens, high f-stops, on a Canon 5D with 25mm extension tube.
Found this rose at dusk and gave it a try.

The flower was perfect.

Collage of graffiti at the old Front Street cotton warehouse.

Chris Crumley’s neighbor had this flower in their driveway area.
I saw it last year but missed the picture. The Passion Flower is a vine.

Heron Jumps into flight


Had to return Chris Crumley's Canon MarK II 1D. This is the last shot with that camera.
I see a Canon Mark III 1D in my future. It will be the 1st camera bought for land adventures rather then under the sea.
