Took the family apple picking at a local orchard last weekend. James came with us last year too but he was too little to really enjoy it. This year he got to spend some time running around with arm fulls of apples and feeling like he was part of the crew. Self-inflicted photograph using the [...]

This Labor Day we were in Boston and I happened to catch a short bit of a street performance crew’s act. I got one photo of this man doing a flip over one child volunteer, and just after this they lined up the other three volunteers here for a another jump. Of course, at this [...]

Soaking wet after walking home in the rain. I had attempted to walk to dinner and the skies opened up halfway there. Ate dinner in wet clothes and then had to walk home in the rain in the dark. Sorry, but I’m not up for taking any more photos tonight.

Working with a single strobe and a fast shutter to create a very shadowed appearance. The room is actually lit normally but the fast shutter only lets in enough light to expose the brightly lit side of my face. I was feeling tired and scruffy and thought this treatment was fitting. I added a slight [...]

Those sock-munching monsters sure are hard to track down! Not long ago I did a photo with me investigating a mysterious light coming out of the dryer. Well, I needed to do some repair on the dryer recently so I thought I would do a follow-up to that earlier posting. This wasn’t my favorite photo [...]

Another day in which I just managed to get a photo of the way the thing are. This was on Friday, which was another day of juggling work requirements with our own household disaster recovery. I did manage to get the last of the soggy (and by this time very stinky) carpet and padding out [...]

Last night I went to bed without doing anything for my daily photo. Still paying the price for working into the wee hours if the morning the other night. Before completely falling asleep I did grab the iPhone and take this photo of myself. I added the soft black & white effect in PS Mobile.

Handheld Portrait – 034/365, originally uploaded by JMaz Photo. Been thinking I need to work on my self portraits. Also thinking that I needed to get something good shot before the day was over. I did this with a few room lights turned on while holding the flash in one hand and the camera in [...]

Me’s and the dogs – 016/365, originally uploaded by JMaz Photo. Took the kids and the dogs to the fairgrounds today. I had intended on trying to do a clone of the kids, as scary as that may seem. I set up the camera on the Gorillapod and tried a few times but I don’t [...]
