This is a shop keeper of a 24 hour store in Banbury UK.  This is one of those images for me that makes me really want to know what was going on inside his head.

I love her T-Shirt =)   It makes you wonder is she a tough girl?   By the look on her face I don't think I would want to mess with her.... Im sure she saw me taking her photo and the expression could have been brought on because of me.

The moment I saw this couple I knew I wanted to photograph them, she looks like she stepped out of the 60's him not so much.  Something about this photo I really like but its not a photo I would call good either.

I shot this off of Finchely road a week ago, I wanted to capture this guy next to the tree thinking I could get a better shot.... I wish I would have framed him more to the right of the frame.... oh well...next time.

Here is another kid photo =)  I love his expression, his mom is talking to him yet he is more concern about the strange man behind his mom taking a photo, the funny thing is she never turned around and I was really close when I took this shot. I thought she would have turned around when she heard the shutter, this is one of three shots.

I love the reaction of this little girl... to be honest I didn't realize what she did till after I got home and pulled the images up on my computer.

Happy Veterans Day....  I shot this about three years ago at Arlington National Cemetery, Im proud to say that my last duty station when I was in the Army was with the 3rd US Infantry "Old Guard" I didn't do the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, I was on a burial team. It was an honor to have been selected to be part of this unit.

Morning commute ..... I love that London is a fitness city, it reminds me of Seattle and New York in that you see a lot of commuters either running or cycling to work.

There is something about this picture that for me makes it contemporary and yet has a feel of the past.  It could be just me

I had to add some color to my blog.  This is at the Heath about a five min walk from my flat. Lots of people in the park on Sunday, even thought this photo doesn't show them =)

Went to a classic car show this weekend on Regents Street in London.  Lots of nice cars but I found myself attracted more the the people then the cars.

Shot yesterday at the Finchely tube station....  I used a fixed 50mm 1.8 lens this train was on the far side of the tracks going the opposite direction of where I was going. No cropping just converted to B&W.  Have a great weekend I look forward to seeing everyone on Monday morning.

Borough market is one of those places where you are going to get a shot ... its like fishing in a barrel.  I love the expression of this little girl.

11-2-11 Photo of the Day

I shot this a few weeks ago during some beautiful early morning light.  I spot metered the shot because I really wanted to get the exposer of the runner correctly and I also wanted the surroundings to fall off quickly.

I shot this yesterday on my way home from the park.  He looked lost then upset but after I took this shot I gave him one of my smiles and he returned the smile and I walked off.  Older people fascinate me and scare the crap out of me, they have so much knowledge and worldly experience, yet most are forced to depend on others and  I don't want to get to the point where I have to depend on others ......
