The Florida Gators are the 2008 National College Football Champions after beating the Big XII Oklahoma Sooners in the BCS National Championship game in Miami at Dolphins Stadium! The SEC defense proved to be too much for the Sooners to handle with the Gators stopping two goal line touchdown drives by Oklahoma. The Gators kept the Sooners offense to under their normal 60 point display with just 14 points.
I captured this photo of the Neuse River in Raleigh, North Carolina using a 24mm Tilt Shift lens on a 35mm Canon 1Ds Digital SLR. By tilting the lens, the plane of focus has been applied directly to the tree in the center while the edges fall off out of focus. Using a tilt shift lens can lend itself to many unique photo opportunities as well as practical applications - for example, by shifting the lens up or down, you are able to keep your perspective in line when shooting architecture. As seen below in this kitchen photograph, the vertical lines within the cabinets and the window pane are perfectly straight. This is due to the camera and lens being parallel to the floor. By shifting the lens up or down, you are able to compose your shot and maintain correct perspective. Tilt and shift is standard practice on large format 4x5 or 8x10 cameras, but Canon has 3 different 35mm Tilt Shift lens for film or digital SLR cameras.
Although it is not officially winter yet, it is December and we are 6 days away from Christmas... and it is 72 degrees in Atlanta today. Seriously? I want cold weather in December. I am not a fan of spring temperatures at this time of the year - maybe I need to move to a place like Montana. I shot this image outside of Missoula, Montana on U.S. Highway 93 on the way to Flathead Lake. It was a cold, dreary day in January (close enough)... and there is snow on the ground! This is my type of winter... snow, cold, dreary. Time to put on a sweatshirt and turn on the heat... not a golf shirt and the AC.
The Ultimate Recycling Guide from Earth911. There is a great article on MSN this morning about how to recycle just about anything.... please do your part - Recycle! Keep the world green for our future generations.
I took this photo specifically for making a Polaroid Transfer... The movement and iconic representation of New York City made a perfect subject. This image really captures the feeling of New York City for me... 
Fall is finally here! It has been way too hot in Atlanta the last couple weeks and it has finally cooled off to the 60s/70s. The leaves haven't turned yet, but we should see them falling soon. I always welcome fall with joy every year - the summer heat is behind me and the cool mornings and evenings await. I guess I live in the wrong town. Here is a shot I took in Charlottesville, Virginia a few years ago while visiting The University of Virginia.
Times Square is a very interesting place to photograph. There are virtually countless opportunities, both visually and creatively. I chose to convert this digital image to a black and white photograph. I felt by removing the vibrant and distracting neon festival of colorful light, the image displays a different view of this tourist spot. It is a much more raw and haunting view of a place that can be so lively.
I had the pleasure of living in California for 3 years and taking in all its beauty. This image was taken on the Central California Coastline near San Simeon (famous for Hearst Castle). Driving up HWY CA 1 is something that everyone should do at least once in their lifetime... it is absolutely breathtaking and offers countless landscape photography opportunities. Bring your jacket though, it is usually windy and cold, even in the summer.
In remembrance of all the 9/11 victims in New York City, Washington, D.C. and Pennsylvania.
