To start 2008 right I thought it would be great to collectively see everyones best photos from 2007. After looking long and hard at my photos from the past year and posting My Top 10 Favorite Photos I couldn’t resist putting together another blog project with the theme of “Your Best Photos from 2007″. Clearly the only rules for this project is that you share photos taken within the calendar year of

It’s been a great year for photography and as the year closes out I thought it would be fun to select my favorite photos from the year. I had a tough time narrowing things down so here they are… Honorable Mentions: Honorable Mention #6: Los Angeles Sunrise This was one of the most dynamic cityscape I took this year, but as much as I liked it compared to some other photos taken this year it didn’t ma

Another perspective of California Oaks in the fog. This was taken the same day as Oaks In The Fog. As I explored the area not only did I find the twisted form of the trees an interesting subject, but the juxtaposition of form became an intriguing concept to experiment with.

Robert Scoble ran a quick demo and fielded questions about Flic

Weather conditions single handedly can make or break landscape photos. While out photographing California Oak trees the other week the fog rolling through the area set a great mood and enabled me to capture photos with a lot of “atmosphere”. It’s important to note that fog not only mutes lighting, but it mutes contrast as well. Depending on your photographic style foggy conditions provide photograph

When people think of places that exemplify the holidays New York city often comes to mind whether because of movies past or just because many of the morning news programs are filmed in downtown New York city. This past weekend my wife and I returned to Manhattan to take in all that New York had to offer for the holidays. As always it proved to be quite a bit of fun from watching the kids and adults a like being awed

As we near Christmas I thought a winter photo might be in order. Taken in Yosemite National Park, earlier in the year, these trees lack the decorations we’ve come to expect around Christmas time, but natures patterns and textures provide their own rich decoration.

Another photo from my Monday photo outing. On the scale of good to bad of the photos I’ve highlighted so far (The Good, The Bad) this is the worst and as such is “the Ugly”. Photographed is a close up of a fallen Oak with fog shrouded living Oaks on a hillside in the distance. What warrants giving this photo the “Ugly” destination?  Well in concept I liked the idea of creating a juxtapo
