I’m in the Faroe Islands for 10 days scouting out locations for our workshop here next year. Our first day was raing and gloomy but that doesn’t stop us from getting good images. We found this unique church along the road.
Stairway 3
Today I share another stairway which I captured in one way and rendered in two versions. This was shot on an iPhone in the stairway at leica camera headquarters in Germany. I really like the way it looks and that you can’t really tell what it is. What do you think?
Stairway Two
Stairway 2 – Hilton Hotel in Iceland. I have many good angles of this stairwa looking up and down but this one is my favorite.
Stairway One
This is the first in a series of stairways I have been photographing around the world. This was shot in an old library in New Orleans.
On – Off
If you have been following my work, you know I like simple compositions. I see things that many people wouldn’t find worthy of a photo. Like this shot of a switch and light bulb. It’s a simple composition that works. What do you think?
Oil Cans
Another from my Seeing Double – Being Square project – Oil Cans. I have been working on this project for years, and I am Really getting close to wanting to publish a book on these images. It’s a series I am doing all shot on an iPhone with the Hipstamatic app and a special film and lens combo. Where ever I go even when shooting with my larger cameras I take a minute and shoot scenes with this setup. The image here was of oil cans found at an antique store.
Up Close
Lately, I have been enjoying doing a lot of long lens photography, specifically with the 100-400 Sony GM lens. Thus, when I am on workshops that I run and have the chance to shoot wildlife, I work hard at getting extreme close-ups like this image. This was made in Svalbard of these wonderful walrus. I used a high shutter speed to capture the water, which I think adds to the picture.
More Big Pipes
More of my big pipes series. Shot in Buffalo, NY at the Buffalo Waterworks. This location has yielded some great images for me. I did this series in BW as it is a monochromatic location and the light plays so nicely with these big pumps and pipes.
Rusty Whale Oil Tanks
Rust, yes I love rust and these are three rusty whale oil tanks from Deception Island in Antarctica. I just loved the way the light fell on these tanks for this image.
Polar Bear Stalking
Svalbard is one of my favorite places to visit and do workshops, especially when we encounter these magnificent polar bears.
