Portfolio Shoot'n - votivational!

My favorite time of year to try & get a few new portfolio photos, see some three to five year old projects & assess how the plants & construction have held up, that kind of thing. Try being the operative word though. Getting out to do it when there is a little cloud cover & there isn't some major deadline pinning me in the office... well when it does happen I try & enjoy it.


The processing will mostly be winter work but had a quick look thru to make sure I didn't screw anything up too bad. Hopefully more to come.

As for the direction this blog is taking... most of my current photography is over at zenfolio including last Saturday's scramble to The Fortress. Just a better forum for those trips but I'll post here from time to time with something noteworthy or if I perhaps do something I like in processing.


Or another photo challenge. Or whatever. I'm open to ideas. Anyone??? Anyone???

Okay, photo suggestions...

- Try to get some photos that include lights as part of the photo. My daughter Kira got a beauty inside an Oregon church, of a stained-glass window. The wall-lights on both edges of the photo were an outstanding finishing touch. She's getting an eye for photo-framing...

- This isn't easy to pull off, but try to get a couple outdoor-shots that show a person or people as silouettes in the photo. You just need there to be something really bright behind. But often the trick is to somehow get pretty much their entire body silouetted, instead of just half of them or something.
