Snow hit Portland, Oregon this winter and crescendo-ed with a storm snow accumulation of 8-12 inches and it is still here almost a week later. The last time this happened was eight years ago, so I have made sure to capture as much as I could to make up for lost time. At the time … Continue reading Snow in Portland (part 1)
Christmas Light Bokeh
I played with Christmas lights over the course of 3 different sessions with my kids. Using the lights in different ways, putting tinsel in front of the lens, using creative aperture with Lensbaby double glass optic, taking pictures from outside, looking in, letting the foggy window create foggy images.

Misty Spiderwebs Foggy Morning
I wonder if something magical happens on a foggy morning before most people are awake. On Saturday, the fog beckoned me into its mystique. I rushed outside. I had a busy day ahead, but I did not want to miss the fog. The fog was amazing, but what I did not expect to see was … Continue reading Misty Spiderwebs Foggy Morning
