Took all the fresh eggs out of the fridge and lined them up for a quick photo shoot. I love that they’re all different… different colors, different sizes, some even with different textures. I can’t taste any difference other than in how I decide to cook them. Lit with a single speedlight bounced off of a reflector.
I woke up the other day to find this little blue visitor sitting out on our screened porch. The door to the porch has been open lately and she seemed to be having a little trouble finding her way back out through it. After snapping a few photos with the zoom lens I kindly coaxed her back towards the exit.

The Boston skyline, looking over the Charles River from Cambridge. This image is from the same shoot as the popular “Charles River Reflections” photo taken last November. I recently recropped this to the slim format here and I really like it.

A miniature scene on display at the Boston Public Library. I love how the shallow depth of field accentuates the third dimension here, especially with the “outdoor” scene. These sets were inside cases with small lights mounted within. I shot them with the long lens and a large aperture go give them that spacial effect. The realism of the result is pretty cool.
This is my from first run at setting up the Novatron studio lights that I picked up recently. I used a main light to camera left bounced off an umbrella and a bare background light kicked down two stops and fired at the muslin from camera right. It’s not perfect, but a pretty good first try. Need to pick up a third stand and some modifiers so I can get the hair light going too.
A black capped chickadee sits atop his home on a cold winter afternoon. Took this with the big Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 II IS lens I’m borrowing and I am so impressed with the sharpness and accuracy of this glass.

The entry to the country store at Kimball Farm in Westford. I took this from the other side of the street and I could barely see over the snowbank on the side of the road. Still, I love the way the light came out in this and it just feels warm inside.
I was driving up a snowy mountain road today hoping to catch a good sunset photo when I happened upon this little opossum by the side of the road. He was nice enough to climb up on this snowbank to pose for a few photos, probably hoping that I would just take my shots and move along. He didn’t wait around to wave goodbye to us on our way back down the hill.
