I did some more RAW experimentation today:

It was a busy weekend for photography. Most of the shots in these 2 galleries were taken while working on DRIFT.

Here are the next set of DRIFT production stills:

Here are the weekend’s random images:

Enjoy!

Spring is finally here.  I took these pictures in my front yard:

Nick and I hiked around Lake Katherine. It was a very hot day, but we got some great pictures.

On the way home, we stopped at Bachelor’s Grove Cemetery. It is considered one of the most haunted places in the country. I’ve never seen any evidence of haunting… It just seems like a very sad place.

Rochester has a really great children’s museum. The highlight of our visit was the time I spent in their butterfly room. They also had a great exhibit of the history of arcade games. They had a huge collection of vintage machines. I was too busy playing to take pictures.

Today, Amelia and I went for a walk around Arrowhead lake.

This weekend, we went to the Round Barn Winery and participated in a white wine making class. We got to do the whole thing, starting with picking the grapes. The second half of this gallery are the shots I took while in the vinyards

The first half of the gallery is random shots from the rest of September. I was unable to take as many pictures as I would have liked, due to my bike accident… These are all I had.

I realize that there are a lot of bug pictures in this gallery. They make for interesting subjects!

This gallery is mostly macro shots from the past week. Most images were from this afternoon’s walk:

These are mostly flowers, with a few other interesting things thrown in:

On thursday, we went to the White Sox game. We were sitting way out at the end of right field, but I brought my biggest lens, and managed to capture some nice shots:

On Friday, we went to the Whiting, IN 4th of July parade:

After the parade, we went to a BBQ, where i took the following pictures:

That night, i took my first fireworks pictures:

Enjoy!
