The life and times of a true knucklehead – No photos to be used without permission
Tonight I had an appointment with Nico. He was more interested in eating than posing for photos.
Okay a week later take 2. I tried something different, a Gary Fong collapsible powersnoot.
Been looking for a chance to use the Light Blaster and since we have Mommi here…
Took my G1X & tripod on my last Portland trip.
Tonight we met up with Rom & Carmina as they were on their way home. We took them to Fort McKinley.
It’s been way too long since we saw Toni, so what better way to reconnect then eating sushi at Angel Fish. But 1st a couple of portraits… I’m getting good use out of my Flashpoint ringlight. I love the soft shadowless light it outputs.
I wanted to shoot Noah in his Halloween costume as we won’t be able to see him Thursday night. Since he is a cowboy this year, I thought the perfect place would be Heinold’s in Jack London Square. I inspected the location earlier and had everything planned out. Of course Noah had a different plan in mind. I found myself chasing him everywhere with a camera in one hand and the softbox in the other. I need to rethink that approach for next time.
I went to work at a lab in San Leandro and was shocked to see wild turkeys. I made sure I had my camera this time.
Today I heard a commotion in the backyard so I ran out and witnessed a Chocolate covered Labbie Dabbie having some fun with his family.
Morning tradition, wake up early, cup of coffee & camera. Well actually this is a collection from a couple of days.
