Riding the Rails

When we were out playing around the RR tracks, I put William up to this one. I like it. Love the fisheye lens. (Have I mentioned that before?)

One Swift Kick

William is really loving soccer, as can be seen here with the big smile. At 5 years old, pretty much kicking the ball in a semi controlled manner seems to be the goal. :-)

5 types of William

We were at a playground recently and I was restless. While taking pictures of William playing I got the idea to make a montage. I had him move to different locations and do his best at waving. Only had to re-shoot 2 waves. It was great! I printed it out for him and he thought it was magic. He now wants me to put his friends in the picture with him. :-)

To see the 8 images it took to make this, just mouse over the image. Used the Photoshop Photomerge tool for this. It works on more than just panorama shots. (I have a mouse over tutorial at the right for more info.)

Train Ride

This is from William's first train ride to the zoo last weekend. He was very excited to actually get to go on a train. Not sure it met his expectations, like being able to see the engine or what ever, but he totally enjoyed the ride.

Heading to Surf

A shot I never used from last months beach trip. I love this shot of William and Roc. They had a great time running on the beach together.

Walk on the Beach

I know, similar to yesterday, but different. I like it and it fits the theme. What are you going to do! :-)

My son William (5yrs old) playing in the surf. I would not let him get too wet, not wanting to soak his shoes. e did later take them off, already soaked. He decided that the water was too cold then. :-)

Launching William

He discovered jumping from a swing this month. :-)

Tried to make this look as old as possible by adding heavy vignette and grain (noise) as well as boost the contrast. Monochrome just does not feel correct without some grain, digital is too clean. I guess that comes from newspaper work in college and the tons of film I have burnt through over the years.

Mery-Go-Round

A day in the park, making best use of the only good day this spring.

Will.I.Am

Playing with wireless triggers for my flash. I talked William into a single pose. Not bad! (The triggers work perfectly too!)

Eye of the Boy

Throw it!!

William was out throwing the ball for Roc & Mocha today, I was in a monochrome mood, here is the result. :-)

Just Nothing

Just playing......

Contemplation

Playing with and combining "creative modes" in my camera and this was created. I really like the results......

First Day of School for William

Yes, it was last week but it still is worthy. :-)

The Family...... :-)

Spinning William

Long exposure with trailing curtain flash sync, no photoshop. I like it!
