The shadows are so important in a picture as solid elements that have been photographed, and that’s why you have to see them and look.

I Don’t See Any Sharks

IMG_7149-2

Hello from Nags Head, North Carolina!  You may have heard that just a couple weeks ago, there were several shark attacks along the Outer Banks of NC.  We’ve not seen one fin yet, though.

This little fella kept my shutter finger busy.  What a cutie!

Contract negotiation, campaign work, and FINALLY getting a break have kept me from checking out your work this week.  Soon though!

Love in Grand Central Station

A couple poses for a Grand Central Station photo shoot

Grand Central Station in New York City is a font of photo ops (though I wish tripod use was allowed!). Spending time there with fellow Monochromians Joe Giordano and Patti Fogarty was worlds of fun. And in the midst of all my “oohing” and “aahing,” I spied this couple posing for what I figured was engagement photos. Of course, I just had to get in on the action!
