New York City August 2012

The summer session in New York was a real treat. I had just added Canon’s TS-E 17mm (tilt shift) lens to my collection and it was the perfect weekend to see how it compared to my 24mm tilt shift. With that in mind, I set out to capture some otherwise uncapturable shots. Grand Central Station, Empire State Building and the Flatiron Building were all shot with this lens on a tripod. Note the floor to ceiling range on the Grand Central shot. A side trip to Brooklyn, and strolls around the city offered up new ideas, compositions and urban vistas to behold.

Not Just a Barn

Recently had the opportunity to photograph a barn renovation project in Camden, Maine. First floor looks like a well-kept century old barn with worn floorboards and a stairway that has seen thousands of feet pass up and down. Second floor surprise is the completed renovation … a very cool living space complete with a substantially sturdy rough hewn hemlock staircase to the loft. Charming, comfortable, inviting, and visually pleasing everywhere you look.
