A while back, I created wallpapers for one of my cellphones whose screen was 130×130 pixels. They’re cropped and compressed nicely, and they’re from my own photo catalog. Feel free to download and use them on your own mobile phones, but remember, they’re only for personal, not commercial use. In other words, please respect my [...]
» Go to this postThis is a video I recorded a couple of years ago at Hollywood Beach, Florida. It was early morning, the sun had just come up, and Ligia had gone into the ocean for a swim. I stayed on the beach and recorded this. It starts out wide, then gets progressively closer to the water until [...]
» Go to this postI have owned the Kodak EasyShare v610 Dual Lens digital camera for the past year and a half, and I’ve meant to write about it for some time. This will be a nostalgic review, since the camera is no longer being made.
Last weekend, I put together an 8-minute video review, and also took some photographs [...]
Friends of ours had a gorgeous bouquet of chrysanthemums at their place, and I couldn’t resist taking a few photos. These were taken handheld, with the wonderful 580 EX speedlite from Canon and the 100mm macro lens.
» Go to this postHere are some of the photos I took on a recent trip to our freezer. They combine my love for macro photography, colors, out of focus photos, bokeh and fun. Enjoy, and if you’d like, you can try to guess the various items I photographed.
» Go to this postJust as I was getting ready to download the photos from my camera last night (I’d been out photographing the wonderful fall foliage), a ladybug flew by me, and stopped to rest on one of our lamps.
I have no idea how it got inside our home, since we have screens at our windows and doors, [...]
My grandparents on my mother’s side always had a garden, no matter where they lived. They were city folk, and even when they lived in an apartment, they managed a nice little plot of land in the back of building, where they grew fruits and vegetables. Later, they moved in a house with a big [...]
» Go to this postThe EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM lens is the professional standard zoom from Canon, and so far the golden standard for sharpness, contrast and bokeh in a zoom lens. Photographers drool over it and swear by it. Its focal range on a full frame sensor makes it very appealing for event photography. It goes from a [...]
» Go to this postHave you ever wondered if I go to church, and where I go? Well, I put together a set of 89 photos that looks at my church, inside and out. You can go directly to the slideshow view if you’d like.
If the word “church” scares you, don’t worry, I’m not proselytizing. The photos are portraits, [...]
I’m going to talk about the Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM Zoom Lens in this review. It’s a wonderfully versatile L series zoom with surprising image quality and great image stabilization built right in. I’m also going to show you lots of photos I took with this lens, to illustrate the various points I’m [...]
» Go to this postLigia and I relaxed at home tonight, and we watched “The Awful Truth” again. I think this was the third or fourth time I saw it, and I love it more and more each time. I can’t help it, the acting’s so good, the screenplay’s amazing, the filming is fantastic, and the direction is just [...]
» Go to this postWith summer in full force, I thought it’d be fun to dig through some unprocessed spring photos and bring out a few good ones. These were taken with the 30D in our neighborhood in North Bethesda, MD. Enjoy!
