CAT EYES

"Cat Eyes"

Shot this image of a common house cat while shooting a wedding reception this past weekend. Thought it might make a nice wall hanger in the right contemperary decor.

"Rings of Hearts"

This image was requested by my bride and groom for thier wedding today. I have shot this image many times before but I decided to add a few more touches of lighting to create hearts of light around the main ring & hearts, which I have to say changes what has been an old image into a new look.

Morning In Hatteras

"Shadows of Light"

Morning light, a telephoto lens, laying prostrate on the cold sand, snapping off multiple exposures, and most of all finding the perfect "simple subject" pays off everytime. How many times have we all passed by a broken shell not giving it a second thought as we look for more desiralble subjects. Maybe there's a lesson here, maybe even with each other.

Ocracoke Lighthouse

"A Welcome Sight"

Today I was on an assignment shoot in Cape Hatteras. After I finished up I took the ferry over to Ocracoke Island for some personal time. Of course this lighthouse has been photographed hundreds of times but no matter there is always a new way of capturing old images with a little imagination and the help of a great sky. I personally like this images composition using 2/3 rds of the lighthouse and anchoring the photo with the tree on the bottom right corner.

OBX Bird

"Home Builder"

If the Outer Banks were to ever select a county bird no dought it would be the "Osprey".

From mid March on these raptors return back to the OBX for their summer retreat to rebuild the nest they left in the early fall as they mate and lay thier eggs. I would bet you can't drive more than a mile near the sound side or the ocean without seeing this bird in action. Here is one of the pair I was shooting busy rebuilding it's nest in Nags Head.

It's a Beach Day !

"Seal the Deal"

The cold Atlantic was busy with action today on our beaches. A large whale was feeding off the coast, dolphins were rolling around with each other (if you catch my drift), the birds were working the bait fish, and this big Gray Seal decided he needed to work on his sun tan. We don't get to see these guys much as we do the smaller harbor seals so this was a treat for everyone who got the chance to see him. Almost looks like a large dog with his hair shaved.

Easter Morning

"Golden Peace"

I don't know if there is any better time than watching the sunrise over our beaches than on Easter morning. Gathering with friends and other believers thanking God and celebrating the ressurection of Jesus.
