On the prowl
Where is he?
Most who know me, know my favorite camera to shoot with is my Leica M9-P. Yesterday, Leica announce a new M series camera called the Leica M Monochrome. At first, buying a camera that only shoots in black and white may sound a little crazy (especially for the price) but if you are someone who shoots a lot in black and white it makes some sense. The pictures I’ve seen have been astounding and the ability to shoot at ISO 10000 and still be useable makes it even more interesting (the Leica M9 does not shoot great beyond ISO 800). I noticed one of Steve Huff’s shots was ISO 2000 and 1/1500 of a second (WOW). Look forward to reading more about it.
I took this shot lost fall at the Lincoln Memorial. It was dark and I noticed her sitting patiently waiting for someone.

Deep Thought
Keep God First
I don’t like posting pictures of homeless people but I found this gentlemen to be very pleasant. I spoke to him for a few minutes and gave him a few dollars.

Look who is getting all the attention
This was taken a few months ago. I really like the expressions on everyone’s faces and the focus on my mother looking at her grand-daughter.

As all of you are aware, my wife gave birth to a beautiful baby girl 2.5 weeks ago. Like all parents, we are taking plenty of pictures and videos. Recently, I took this picture after her bath. I love how her hair is standing up and how she is looking towards her mommy. Even though, she is still too young to focus in on objects, you can tell she already has a tight bond with the people that love her.

Lone Goal
Re-post June 2011
Since starting this site in May I have not mentioned a whole lot about my self with the exception of having a newborn. I have many enjoyments in life, including spending time with my beautiful wife and daughter, playing basketball, lifting weights, working on computers, photography, and work which consists of fixing peoples ankles and feet. I guess I have to say that I’m very diverse in what I do.
My wife grew up in the country and her father put up a basketball goal in their yard. She never had interest in playing basketball but always watched me throughout high school (yes, we are high school sweethearts). Often times we would go out and shoot baskets for fun. I never thought much about the placement of the basketball goal but it sits out in the middle of a field with a small tree along side it. The solidarity of this structure interested me and thought it would be a great picture opportunity.

Downtown Chicago
Re-post May 2011
It was a nice clear night and I was looking for a good shot of downtown Chicago. We walked below the Michigan Ave. bridge crossing the Chicago River. This is a 5 exposure HDR. Initially shot in color, I prefer it in black and white. I hope to return to Chicago soon, it’s my favorite city to travel to.

Searching
I find it exciting to follow my little girl around. She’s always searching for something new.
