I just loved the colors and everything about the side of this building. It was found at Olevetti quarry near Bloomington, IN.

Street Music
Back in the spring I visited Holland, Mi to shoot the tulip festival and especially the tulips. It was kind of a bust as the early spring had forced the tulips to bloom early. So we spent the time there to explore the town and back roads and found lots of fun things to shoot. We happened upon this guy who was a one man band on the streets of Holland. Look for more Michigan photos in coming days.
Copenhagen
As I said in my last entry I was headed to Copenhagen. Well, I am in Copenhagen and I have been pretty slammed with meetings and such. A lot to cram into a week at Phase One. So, postings have been nonexistent but I will catch up. So, other than a mermaid sitting on a rock what other iconic places are there in Copenhagen? Tivoli of course.
Little Mermaid
It’s off to Copenhagen in a short time. I’ll be there for a week on business and may not have the chance to post as mush as I like. Thought I’d share an iconic Danish landmark shot on a foggy morning on a trip there last fall.
Tulip Day
Every now and then I like to switch things up a bit. I visited the Tulip Festival as I try to do every year in Holland , Michigan. This year it was not so great, cold, rainy and most of the tulips had already lost their leaves due to an early spring with warm weather. None the less I found this guy in a flower box in town. Color and rain drops as well as the flowers behind make it work. Good way to start the day.
I’m Back
I am now back from a super trip to Iceland and will try to catch up with the blog posts here. I have so many images to share not too mention fun stories. Iceland is such a beautiful place. No matter where you look there is something gorgeous. This shot was made with fellow photographers Drew, Peter, Steve and we were traveling a rough road out to the snow fields. Yes it is summer here but plenty cool and snow there. I love it. This is a hiking hut and outhouse. Kind of looked cool in BW and with the outhouse as a g=foreground.
Door Number ONE
I was having with my iPhone on a recent trip to Saugatuck, MI and stumbled upon this abandoned hotel. Each door was painted a different color. Someone with some imagination could thell this property had potential. I did some overall shots and panos but this shot floated to the top. Simple, the growth out from, door not centered. It just works.
Big Boat
This is a B&W shot of an old Great Lakes Steamer. It has been in Saugatuck, MI for what seems forever. It’s rusting and falling apart. On June 4th they are moving this boat to a new location in Canada and will be restoring it. That will be quite a site as it is towed out the river. Wish I could be there, but I will be in Iceland.
Little Boy In A Window
It’s fun to walk the streets with a camera. And this past weekend my camera of choice was the iPhone and using the Hipstamatic App. While it was fun I did miss my big boy cameras a few times. But it was an exercise to shoot simple, and see well. I came away with amazing images. This one was shot while walking the street of Holland, MI. I walked past this shop and they had hand painted big letters on the shop window. Sitting near the window was a couple and a cute baby. So I motioned if they could put the kids face in the hole of the letter and they did. I got three good shots. Like this one the best.
Leaky Boats
The weekend was a fun shoot. Saw many things and had a lot of fun shooting the out of the ordinary. Heading west this weekend so expect to see some big landscapes by this time next week. In the meantime I am still having fun posting the different. Todays shot is a continuation of the image from yesterday. These are two of around ten life boats in a big field just sitting there rusting away. Some very cool photo possibilities. Shot with an iPhone and using the hipstamatic app. I used the Kodat and Jonny S combo. Lots of fun to shoot small. Next week it’s back to 80 mega pixels.
