Sunday afternoon in Autumn

Branch in October

Warm autumn day is like a good drink at happy hour, feels so good. To enjoy the day we went out for a little walk and had a nice sunday brunch at Marie Louis. Also today I walked around with my camera for the first time in a few weeks. I have not done it in a while–been to busy with work (full time and freelance). Everything felt so good this afternoon.

All moments were captured with pimpin’ EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM.

Around Baltimore

I captured these moments around May this year during my lunch break around downtown Baltimore. I try to get out as much as I can with my camera, however lately it has been tough: work, freelance work, and being tired. Hopefully as work lighten up I will have more free time to chase after moments around the city.

Some walk their dog, I walk my camera

When time permits I love to take my camera for walk around Baltimore. The city has so many hidden nooks and crannies, various angles and lightings I feel like a tourist every time. Sometimes I’m looking way up with my mouth wide open, looking way down as if I’m looking for a quarter, or simply looking straight like I have x-ray vision. No matter which way, I find the whole process of walking my camera very cathartic and adventurous. What better way enjoy time.

I noticed the city doesn’t reveal itself to oneself. Rather one have to reveal itself to the city–normality is not how it appears but how one assimilate the given data. Only then will the sublime creep out of the ordinary.

Below are photos captured in May. Whenever I see things I make up micro stories about them to entertain myself. It is somewhat loco, but then again I am walking my camera.

Harper on Ed

Last week I was photographing Scott Matejicka (www.Matejicka.com) playing at Mount Vernon park. And so happens Ed and Harper waltzed along bathing on the golden west sun. Seeing both of them put a big smile on my face and click. I loved the face Harper made on the black and white one. It was a nice day to be at the park.

The moment was captured with my sexy EF 70-200mm f/2.8L USM.

While I was cleaning my desktop I found a picture of Jodi and Harper that was taken few weeks ago.

T.Raff

I had a blast with T.Raff (Senior Art Director at NCSDO) during a photo session we had this week. I used a white cardboard as a reflector upon the melting west sun. She is the type of model I enjoy working with. She had a good arsenal of expressions, flowed “fluiditcally” with the surrounding, and really got into the whole thing.
