Canal Park Lighthouse
My wife and I were in Duluth for a concert last weekend. This provided an opportunity for a photo I have tried to make a couple of times, but the weather never agreed, and clouds, fog or rain prevented. I knew this time of year the sun would rise into a position that it would appear to sit atop the Canal Park lighthouse. I used an application called The Photographer’s Ephemeris and found the general area I needed to be to capture the image.
Monday morning, the skies were clear, and I was able to capture the image below.

Godin Wedding
My wife’s niece got married a couple of weeks ago. They asked me to do the video of the ceremony, and highlights at the reception and dance, but I couldn’t help but take a few images while I was at it.

A Couple from Beartooth Pass
I was in Montana for my cousin’s wedding last weekend, and decided to make use of the trip to get over towards Yellowstone for a couple of days after the wedding. It was mentioned to me that I might want to make my way through Beartooth Pass if at all possible, as it was supposed to be one of the best roads out there. I can attest to this, as the drive not only provides some stunning views, it was the most enjoyable drive I have ever done. If you are not one for curves, heights and enjoy a technical drive, it may not be for you…but I fully understand why there were so many motorcycles and sports cars on the road with me…as it was pure fun.

It’s Been awhile
I know it has been a long while since a fresh post has been made. But I was shooting pretty steadily up until November 2015. Then work got a little hectic, and the camera didn’t come out much over the winter. But I have been shooting pretty regularly again for the past month…I just haven’t been posting. One of the things that I have started to take a shot at has been architectural photography. Right now, I am focusing more on the entire structures….I seem to be seeing the lines and curves of buildings more so that detail. I found that kind of odd being when it comes to automotive photography, it is the detail that I lean towards.
I have also been working on some timelapse stuff as well. I have a few short 10-12 second snippets I am currently working on as I get familiarized with the technique and learning to see movement. Once I get some of the clips done, I will post them up as well.

Couple of More from Vegas
I am still working through images that I took while in Vegas for Photoshop World. These are 2 more that took a little more work to complete. The first is a 7 image HDR of the waterfalls outside of the Mandalay Bay. The second is a black and white conversion from the staircase in the El Cortez Casino near Freemont Street.
