Some fine adjustments with a 10-pound sledge and a Sawzall

Light 'em up!

OK, so maybe this one is cheating a little bit - it was shot at an airport...

My year, photographically, was mostly full of wedding work and finally launching a brand new site, blog, and company for the wedding work I, and my partner, do.

Our best shoot was an engagement we did in August in Central Park: http://stellaryear.com/alia_scott/index.html

Wow Moose, that the BaldHill monument? Jeez, I grew up right down the road from there, haven't been passed it in forever though, brings back memories for sure.

Oh great lightning!

I have a couple that I'm quite pleased with from San Francisco and Bruges:

Yes it is - just after sunset as we were waiting on fireworks on July 4. I love that last shot from Bruges, Ron, terrific reflection in the water!

Jeremy some excellent stuff! I really like the skateboarders, and you being under the rainbow tent. Your very nice owl reminds me, I caught up to my first wild Snowy Owl of the year two weeks ago:
