The following photos have been captured by Sony DSC-HX200V captured from across England. The photo specifications are variable and concealed. They are a presentation of the magical season: AUTUMN. There is something magical about the fall; no matter what your beliefs, there are plenty of ways to utilise the energy of this season and bring a little magic into your life.

STOP

Is he running the stop or is he stopping?



This is a departure from my usual MO of walk around and see what I can find. I left the house this day knowing exactly what I wanted to shoot, where to shoot it, and how to process it.

Nikon P510, monopod, ISO 100, 1/40 sec @ f/5.5, 47mm equiv.


Kayak Spectrum

After working the sunrise on the harbor at Rockport MA, I was heading back to the car, took a detour to explore a narrow alley that ended at the water, looked down and saw this. It's all about the color.

'coulda been a contender'

Canon 450D, f6.3, 270mm, 1/50

Walking around town at lunchtime a large crowd had gathered to watch a street performer doing his thing. I have completely forgotten what the performer's act was, as I was fascinated by this spectator, and while many of the crowd took pictures of the show with their phones and point and shoots, I was snapping away at this character in the crowd. He has such a lived in face, that has seen many hardships.

One of my favorite shoots. I really start getting into fine nude art. This time tried some high key shoots. Used my nikon D7000, model was sitting on a beg against wall. I pointed two speedlights to a wall to make it white, made little bit overpower just to get a wrap around really soft light on a model. Photo came pretty much strait from camera with little LR adjustments





Another photo was made using composite technique. It was really magic night on lightning show here in Cyprus, i just took my camera to a balcony ant start shooting. Shutter was around 20 seconds just to catch a lightning. After few success photos i composite them into one


This photo is very important for me as it was one of my first pictures i took, since purchase a camera. Was walking around on a sunset and by accident i saw beautiful reflection in the water of the hotel pool. No any touch of digital post processing, it just came perfect strait from camera. It was a magical moment

I had moved this flower out onto my barbeque while cleaning the table. Evening was approaching and the lighting was nice, took a few shots on a whim.
