Do Carnies' Sleep?

Between my internships I had the privilege of staying at Tybee Island for some R&R.  While on the prowl late one night I spyed the back lot of a carnival.  I had to take a shot.  A 15 sec. exposure at f20, ISO 1600 made the flags on top of The Ring of Fire flutter forever.

Rocky Eye Slight Self Portrait

I found a willing four-legged model to allow me to get up in his face per se, eye boogers and all.  Only got a slight shadowy image of myself though.  Shot with a Nikon D700 at 1/125 @ f16 with a 60mm macro lens at ISO 200.

Basting Brush Macro

While on the hunt for things to shoot I spied my basting brush next to the grill.  Interesting boket followed.  I shot this with a Nikon D700 at 1/80 @ f/16 with a 60mm macro lens at ISO 200.

1st Year Layout Mayhem Continued

Ashton Smith proved to be a very patient model for 1st Year Student Katherine Clark.  Sitting in a tub for an hour covered in oil, makeup, and eventually stage-blood was not a problem for her.  Check out Ms. Clark's blog at

Real Use Macro

This week I shot a 1:1 of my Gerber Paraframe II knife.  I left it as is so you can see the blemishes and dust that it carries every time I pull it out of my pocket.  Shot with a Nikon D700 for a 5 second exposure @ f16 with a 60mm macro lens at ISO 200.  I used a Speedlight to provide illumination.

Layout Mayhem with the 1st Years

Just recently I had the pleasure of assisting 1st year Katherine Clark on her Design Lab Layout shoot.  Look for more of these adventures next week.

Here's to the Lovers!

It's just Red Day to me, but Happy Valentine's Day to all the sweethearts out there.  Even though I was tired the other night, I had to take advantage of the awesome fog out.  On my way home I stopped and shot this with a Nikon D700 at f4.5 with a 30 second exposure, ISO 200.  My trusty MiniMag and passing cars provided the script!
