Natalie Before Church


Natalie Before Church, originally uploaded by Carl's Photography.

Natalie Before Church. I had the children come up for a head and shoulders shot before we went to church. Natalie always has such long eye lashes. I have to have her open her eyes quite a bit so they aren't hidden by her long eyelashes! Strobist info: SB-900 into 45" white satin Impact umbrella with black backing on, camera left slightly and above. SB-800 into 43" white satin shoot through umbrella subject right and behind aimed at between subject and white wall.

Memory lane time. Here it is November of 2009 on a Friday evening. I'm looking back through old photos. Here is one I photographed in 6/29/2002. This is Danielle at age 4 on Sabbath morning with her new dress on. Oh the kids grow so quick and we forget. How I miss my little children :-)

The Winding Road at Sunset

The Winding Road at Sunset - I was on top of the garage photographing the sky at sunset. I just finished the other photo facing south. This one is facing west. The sun is just out of the photo. I think it is visually interesting the winding road meandering away. This is a 3 shot HDR -2,0,+2 EV. I shot some 6 shot ones as well.

A warm Fuzzy Sunset

A Warm Fuzzy Sunset - This is how my wife described my photo that you see and so that became the title. Becky was out returning a friend's dog that we had borrowed the failed hopes of breeding our Great Pyranees. I climbed out on the roof of our garage and setup my tripod on the shingles at the peak. I photographed the sky about 60 times. Here you see a view looking south with the sunset just out of picture.

Morning Sunrise in My Backyard

Morning Sunrise in My Backyard. We had a particularly strong orange sunrise the other day. There were clouds across the sky, but there was this band of open sky in the east through which the sun shone for about 15 minutes. You can see I have plowed the garden. The big rock is seen as well. My blueberry patch is by the garden.

Cloudy Sunrise with Bright Sun on the Pines

Cloudy Sunrise with Bright Sun on the Pines. I photographed this the other day in the morning as the sun rose. The sky was cloudy, but there was a section to the east through which the sun could shine. The sun disappeared after about 15 minutes. Most of the trees have lost their leaves. The pines and a few oaks remain.
