Interactive art… the soaring arches just beg for climbing. Had a fun day until we got back from our walk around the park and the car had been broken into. Still a nice place to visit with lots of photo ops. We honestly did not see the little sign saying not to climb on the arches until we were leaving. Anyway, I like the photo for the colors and composition, and of course-David.

“Capture Indy” Photo 7
And finally, the last “CaptureIndy” post. Scroll down to the Photo 1 post for the background on the previous seven posts.
7 of 7; In “Pets” category. Portrait of our family beagle Ruthy. All natural light from adjacent window. This was also taken with a 105 mm micro nikkor. I hadn’t notice until posting these how many of them were taken with the same lens.
Photos Published in “Capture Indy” Photo 1
Old news but this blog seems like a good place to display the seven photos of mine that made it into the CaptureIndy book in 2009 (out of 9,000 photos submitted and 750,000 votes cast).
You can read about the concept and selection process for these ‘by local photographers’ and ‘judged by the public’ books here http://www.pedimentbooks.com/
Some amazing photos made it through the mysterious selection process, and some stuff I scratch my head wondering ‘how’? Still, it was interesting to have printed confirmation that my vision of good and bad must be different than lots of other peoples vision of the same… I’ll post the seven photos of mine that made it into the book over the next few days. The first one is below.
1 of 7; In the “Friendly Faces” category. Spur of the moment shot, grab the camera and shoot quick. Still dressed in work clothes, got a little mud splatter on my white shirt to prove it. Unfettered childhood exuberance flinging mud! Maybe the best example I have of a “The Moment It Clicks” shot.
Portraits Published! well, sort of…
I’ve been taking portraits of folks at the office recently. A few of them were recently posted on our “Sustainable Stan Journal” blog. Mugshots of the six member Sustainability Committee are featured at the bottom right side of the page http://sustainablestan.blogspot.com/
Regarding my foray into portrait shooting, a big Thanks to Paul D’Andrea for his friendly mentoring and helpful tips regarding lighting for the shoot http://pdaphotography.com/.
It really is, all about the light…

For Father’s Day, we were walking around White River State Park, in a shady area, when my Grandson Kensington’s face popped into some sunlight. Because of the lighting, this was by far the best photo of the day.
