get splashed

80mm f6.3 1/500s ISO100
When you are at the pool splashing around... take something more than a snapshot. See the action differently.  See the mottled reflections in the water. See the glow of the smiles around you. Take your shot. Then get wet.  Get Splashed.

fluid distortion

28mm f6.3 5sec. ISO100
I have been drawn to color and form lately.  The composition of shape and the progression of lines and contour.  Taking a photo of a hot tub can easily be so snapshot.  As with most images, I'm looking for a new perspective, a way to see the subject without just looking at the subject.  Do you ever see things differently?

pipevine swallowtail

These butterflies are common in the mountains of North Carolina.  I stumbled up on several on the bank of a small stream.  This one stood it's ground as I approached and allowed me to capture several shots from 3-4 inches away.  Then it slowly lifted off and circled me.  As I researched what type this butterfly was I came across images of it's caterpillar stage.  Wildly enough, just a few days earlier I have snapped off a few frames of a strange caterpillar, it turns out they are one in the same.

last season

80mm f3.2 1/80s ISO100
Down and out in the weeds, these snow skis are retired.  Left-overs from seasons past.  Used and abused, raced and wrecked, now just stored and bored, they long for one last season.
