2013 Fair Entries

Another year, another crop of fair entries. This was a very interesting year for me. I took a lot of pictures this past year, but I took a lot of pictures for people. Some, most of them were really good, but I didn't feel like I should submit those because they were for other people. These were the ones that I did submit.

New Toys

Picked up some new equipment (strobes and softboxes) this year and thought I would try it out.  Man my dog is getting old.  He was all black when we got him as a puppy, now 11 or so years later, he's getting pretty white.

Orion

I have a love/hate relationship with this constellation  It is my favorite one to look at and I look forward to watching him march across the sky every year. However, he only shows up in winter. Maybe I need to move farther south.

Anyway, I was heading home this night and there was a thin haze of clouds in the sky that diffused the starlight just a little bit, but it was enough for me to say to myself, "Wow, that's pretty cool, I should get my camera out." 

Come Fly With Me

Love the focus in this shot.

'Tis the Season

Took some Christmas photos this year of about the cutest kids I know save my kids.

Family Picture

The family 2012 family picture at the family farm.  Note to self, it's really, really tricky to get a proper exposure with a huge white barn glaring back at the camera.

Family Pictures for Best Friends

Family photos of just about the best friends anyone could ever wish for.
