Portraits

Cranking out some more portrait work. These are from a combination of Peru and the Dominican Republic. If I don't label each photo, I'll try to get back here soon to do so.

New batch is ready.

Here's a few from Colorado and Peru. Not sure why they're mixed into the same post. Probably because I'm lazy.

A little more. Go ahead, it's good for the soul.

Random collection of pix here. Just posting as I finish them off, getting them ready for print. Obviously, I'm not printing these tiny ones, but rather the bigger brothers. Speaking of prints, contact me if you would like any thing from this site as a print.



Taken at the Quest Center in Omaha, NE. The UNL ladies volleyball team routed Penn State that day. Our football has been lacking these last handful of years, but our volleyball team keeps at it at a consistently high level. I'm finally starting to mess with tinting some black and white photos.




Chi town. I was interviewing there on Halloween. Not a bad place to see the crazies.



One of the previously unfinished pix from Taiwan.

Ready for a few Dominican pictures?

Here's a sampling of my work in the D.R., these are mostly just portraits and such. I haven't pulled the landscape shots out yet. Stuff keeps getting in the way, like interviewing for residency.


this was a kid who was caught stealing. a mob chased him down, caught him, and returned him to the scene of the crime (pictured here confronting the store owner).




we ate beans and rice everyday. cooked as seen here.



In rural D.R., cock fighting is still very much alive and well. Here's one of the local guys holding up the claws that are taped onto the roosters legs, prior to a fight.




This family was photographed after inviting some of us in to their small, steel roofed home. It was pouring rain outside, and the father was working in a cacoa field with his sons just before the rain started.




This little lizard just hung out long enough for me to get this shot. Quite lucky he stayed put as I can in close, as I didn't have my zoom lens on, so I had to walk up close with my 35mm. That's close.




Taken in our clinic, our attending physician Rick was checking out a little with scabies (with out gloves...)

reworked that space needle pic.

so here's the new and improved. changes consist of making the black a true black where appropriate, and formatting to a size more friendly for printing in the 1.25 format (8x10's and 16x20's).

Polished off a couple more photos

These were all taken in Seattle (obvious isn't it..), over last Christmas. I've a few more of the city I'll be working on intermittently, and of the trip to Phoenix/Grand Canyon that I went on right after x-mas.

This first pic is a favorite, due to the effect of dragging the shutter while moving the camera. So there isn't any fancy photoshoping involved, it was all done in camera.




The next three here are of Puget Sound, taken just north of the city, near Shoreline.






I could be remembering the name wrong, but I think this is Green Lake.

some random pics

thought i'd just post up a couple that i've recently looked at. Took them at various times in the past year(ish).
