Vermont Barn-Undisclosed location

This is why I consider black and white to be the tuxedo of photography.

Ferris Wheel- Rochester Fair-Rochester, NH

This is a composite image using layers and masks in Photoshop. The blurred portion of the image is the result of a long exposure. The script on the hub of the ferris wheel and the sharpness of the cars are from a separate image. A tripod is essential for this type of shot.

Minimalist Flower- Bleu Lavande- Magog, Quebec

This image is all about removing all but the essential subject with the exception of a small amount of detail in the background. The flower in the foreground is separated from the background by contrasting tones, color, and by the shallow depth of field by using f/5.6.

This image is all about the wonderful color and textures. There also was a significant amount of tonal adjustments to bring out the details.

Highland Games Sheepdog Competition-Loon Mountain- Lincoln, NH

The sheepdog is caught headbutting the ewe in the butt. To get this shot the focus on my Nikon D300 was set to track the movement of the dog and the shutter release was set to burst mode.
