I haven’t had much time behind the lens lately. Between work and personal obligations, there isn’t enough hours in the day. Sadly, photography isn’t how I earn my living and so I’ve been dealing with camera withdrawals. Even in my daily life, I would be walking past someone or something and I found myself reaching for Artemis in my handbag. She was there, as always, though time never did allow. It makes me sad more often than not. Alas, life makes you work for what you want and so, I press forward. (more…)
So last week I took a walk about downtown before work. It was nice to get out and breathe the fresh morning air. Although the sight of the homeless laying out on the sidewalks is heartbreaking, this early in the morning all the buildings are still lit and downtown is equally beautiful. My favorite would be walking out towards Bayfront Park however. To see the sun coming up over the water instantly puts me at ease. I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned this before or not, I simply love a beautiful sunrise. Sunsets are gorgeous, yes. However, for me there is something about the day breaking and beginning anew. (more…)
As I mentioned in my last post, I have not had much time for photography as of late. As upsetting as it is, it is an unfortunate fact. I have however, not had it far from my thoughts. Especially on moments such as this, when you walk out by the water and instantly become absorbed in the natural beauty that is Gaia. Although this photo was taken about a week ago, it still takes me back nonetheless to the zen that was this moment. When life gets a little crazy, place me by the water and all is instantly well.

This past Thursday the morning was positively beautiful here in Miami. Well, at least the morning’s weather was gorgeous. I decided to take yet another one of my walks over towards Bayfront Park in the downtown area. It really is one of my favorite places to go before work. It is especially nice when I get there early enough to watch the sun come up. This particular morning I had arrived a little bit late and therefore missed the sunrise. However, it was still another lovely morning. (more…)
Hello everyone. I was actually meaning to make this entry yesterday, however, I made a slight detour. I was putting together a little compilation for a friend’s Facebook page. I’m actually quiet flattered that it will be an album. I don’t think there is a shortage of pictures, that’s for sure. After all, he is the lead vocalist and front man of Urban Rebel. I’ve taken an insane amount of pictures of the band and there are plenty where he is the focus. So much so, that I almost felt like a weird stalker when I was putting the album together. My wolf and I had a good laugh about it. (more…)
While my lovely and slow bandwidth takes it sweet time uploading some new pictures to my SmugMug gallery, I decided I wanted to share with you a couple of pictures. These three are from my Earth, Air, Fire & Water series. I spend a lot of time by the water. Especially when I get to the downtown area early enough and I head out by Bayfront Park to watch the sunrise. I love sunrises, in fact, I prefer them to sunsets. For me, there is just something about the sun rising over the horizon. The feeling of warmth I get just from watching it come in breaking in a new day with its light. I especially love the sunrising over the water. (more…)
Lately there doesn’t seem to be enough hours in the day. I have had to work longer hours and that has left very little time for much else. Unfortunately that has included not having much time to practice behind the lens. Sometimes you just want to be able to replicate yourself in order to accomplish all you set out to do in the scope of a day. I did not wish to leave you in the wind however and so I revisited some previous photos in order to share at least a little something with you. Something that I hold very dear. I’m speaking of my pets. These aren’t all my animals of course. I am just posting pets I have photographed in general, though most of these are my personal pets. To be honest I have a bit of a zoo. In total I own 3 Colombian boas, 3 cats and a dog. Well, for what its worth, one of my cats thinks he’s a dog. That cat would be Wallace. (more…)
I was going to wait to share these images with you tomorrow, however I am really pleased with how they turned out and I just could not wait. On our walked today, we stopped by our nearby U-pick and thankfully I brought along my camera. Especially for the little scarecrow and the forgotten tanker. I think those are the favorite of the set. (more…)
I wanted to make my first post containing images, special. Which is why I decided to put up my favorite edits from a recent trip to the zoo. I haven’t been to many a zoo, however I really do love that our local zoo is not composed of cages. The thought of animals behind bars saddens me. At Zoo Miami, although the animals are kept within enclosures, they are very well taken care of. I hope you all enjoy these photos as much as I enjoyed my visit. (more…)
