Photo: Red Ivy Leaves on Wall

Picture: Red Ivy leaves in fall on wall of Garry Farrar vineyards, Russian River Valley, Sonoma County, California. This is an image I shot a year or so ago, and is now one of 4500 image scans in my production queue. I've been having lots of fun (sarcasm) this week,…

APOD’s

Maybe you've realized from browsing through this weblog that I'm a bit of a Space & Science fan. One place I love to visit is APOD (Astronomy Picture of the Day). I've selected out a few really cool images that are worth seeing. 1.) Saturn Eclipses the Sun - taken…

Blue Angels

I felt so non-professional. In a way, it's enjoyable when you don't feel you have to get the shot. That's the expectation everytime you're hired as a pro photographer. But not this last Sunday. It was take the kids to the city for the day, mainly to watch the Blue…

Holy Lightning Bolts, Batman!

Wow - talk about close! Check out the photo and article in the Daily News about a guy who photographed a lightning bolt strike only yards (meters) from where he stood. The blast was so powerful that it knocked him six feet in the air. Be sure to click the…

Can you de-CERN Fermi Lab?

Picture: Aerial view of the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, near Chicago, Illinois. This was taken just moments after my plane took off from Chicago's Midway Airport. At the time I was really bummed that we were flying so close to the accelerator that the bottom half of the ring extended…

Photo: Urban Nature; Oak trees near Chicago

Picture: Oak tree canopy of branches and leaves, McDonalds University Campus, Oak Brook, near Chicago, Illinois. This is probably the only 100% true nature photo taken on my trip. But honestly, being only 60 feet from the door of the Hyatt Lodge, how much of a commune back to nature…

Where is Carmen Chicago?

Been quiet here, huh? Well there's a good reason, and it ties into my last two posts. I just got back from a road trip to Chicago. I wish I could say I got lots of good photos, but this wasn't a photo trip. I got a few, and I…

Photo: Road at Sunrise, Wells, Nevada

Picture: Storm clouds at sunrise over lonely, empty two-lane desert highway, near Wells, Nevada. Wise man says: The Road Ahead is merely the past for anyone traveling the opposite direction. Furthermore, an idiot standing in the middle of the road is either (a) lost, (b) confused, (c) waiting to be…
