New fisheye lens

I got a new Sigma fisheye lens today. It cost way too much, however I can do my tiny planets in about 15 shots instead of 70. Here's the test one.

First image sold

Yesterday I went to pick up two images I had hanging up in a little gallery for an exibxit and I was the only one who sold anything. $150 and I'm so excited, this is the first image I've sold!!

Franklin Park Conservatory

A few more HDR shots this time of Franklin Park Conservatory.

Some of Ralph Lauren's beauties

More tiny planets

Here are a few more tiny planets that I took back in the middle of summer and just now got around to playing with them.
Each is around 60 images merged.

100,000 blog visitors!

The blog passed 100K today and I just wanted to thank everyone who has left comments, emailed me and visits often, I really appreciate it. I hope you all stick around to help me reach 200K!

Where the hell have I been?

Sorry for being MIA. I spent a few days cleaning out unwanted files on both computers getting them ready for the new OS. Worked on getting 3 of my tiny planets printed and framed for a gallery showing I'm going to be in Dec. 1st. And I've been watching a lot of TV lately, so nothing new has happened up until now.

I'm home visiting my parents again. It's been working out great at work, once a month I get a 3 day weekend so I've decided to spend them with my parents. Yesterday was great. We all went up to Cleveland for the day. Dad and I took some pictures of the city while mom shopped at tower city.


The lighting was crap, that's why the tiny planet looks so bad


We ate at the HardRock (which I hadn't eaten there since we went to see the Rolling Stones back when I was in college). We went to the Cleveland Museum of Art where I had no clue that they were going to have one of my favorite Salvador Dali's on display

"The Dream."

After the museum we went to another mall so my dad could get a firewire cable from Apple and have dessert at Cheesecake Factory.

Also, I've gotten a little digital camera, Flip Video, so I'll be posting vids for you to enjoy.
