Well I was gone all day today but managed to get in and edit a quick photo. This was the last photo I took before the drive back to the condo tonight. This was shot just after sun down at the tip of Montauk. We spent the whole day driving out there stopping at some beautiful places along the way and eating at an amazing 5 star place in South Hampton. It was a great day ended with a great photo, and now if you will excuse me, a shower and bed are calling my name :)
Hope you Enjoy :)
Today was my first full day here in NYC. We are staying on the other side of the river in Hoboken and will be taking night shots after I write this post, but we spent the day in the city. We were scouting locations and shooting hither and tither. After Lunch we walked around central park for a while. I took this photo of the bow bridge in the heart of the park. Hope you enjoy :)
Tomorrow morning I fly out to NYC for a family vacation. I was right outside the city recently for a job but it has been over a year since I have been there for pleasure. I have packed my F Stop bag as tight as it can go with 6 lenses, 3 camera bodies, 2 gorrilapods a tripod, all chargers, straps and accessories, and I am ready to fly out bright and early in the morning :)
Today's Pic of the Day is from my last visit to the big apple. I got this shot of the skyline from a pier in New Jersey. We will be staying just down the street from this pier on this trip and I plan on getting some more shots from this location and many more.
So I have been working almost a month now on the new Newtography.com. This has been a much more difficult task than I thought it would be. During this process I realized that I needed specific photos for the website. So I decided to take my own stock photos instead of buying them online. So the Pic of the Day today was a stock photo I took today to go along with an excerpt on the site about teaching. So this is the photo I took to go along with "teaching photography"
Early last year I took a trip up to New York for a month to try out shooting hockey. On my way up I made several stops, one of which was at the cold and frozen tundra of Lake Erie. I hadn't been to any of the great lakes since I was a wee laddy. I ran out on the lake ice burgs attached to the shore and set up to try and catch the sun if it wanted to wink at me through the clouds as it went down.
This is a prime example of luck favoring the well prepared. I waited a few minutes and then BAM! the clouds that had been seamless all day long tore apart just enough to let the sun shine through for a quick minute. I set my iMac up at my hotel that night and edited this pic and made it one of the first photos I uploaded to Google+ and it got over 100 likes, and that was the moment I knew G+ was going to be a big part of my future on social media.
P.S. I kinda miss my old logo/autograph :)
Hope you Enjoy
