Lens to Lens, Photography of Reflections

The Eye of the Storm, a Photographic Rendering
This is actually a photograph of lights. Since it's the day after New Year's I thought I would post abstract artwork. No, I was not partying last night. Sad to say I was barely able to keep my eyes open for Dick Clark's count down. This is artwork I created from my...

Photography of Music in the Shadows

Don’t Lick the Ice

A bird with an attitude.

Simple Melody Study of Light and Color

How in the world did this happen?
Canada roads offer some amazing untouched images with beautiful landscapes, but I've never seen anything like a this tree. Vines had overgrown the tree to form the shape of a deer. No one believed me at first. It was hidden nicely with the other trees. Copyright...
