720 Nanometers

That's the length of light which is allowed to pass through to the image sensor on this camera, while the visible spectrum (you know, ROYGBIV) is blocked. The result is a striking display of otherworldly colors. Green foliage is rendered completely white, while other colors are represented in unique ways. Awesome for landscapes, but not so hot for portraiture. People turn into ghosts, while the eyes go black and hair a bizarre shade of blue. Very strange.

Chris Rock

I was given the opportunity recently to photograph Chris Rock while he and his family enjoyed the day at Six Flags Great Adventure. It was interesting watching the people at the park recognize him and point, while others would rush up for a quick handshake, etc. Still others complimented him on his recent movies. Unfortunately, he only agreed to a few quick photos early in the day, so I wasn't able to get creative, but nevertheless it was an interesting day. One things for sure though...he definitely kept it real.

From BBQ's to Head Shots.

This is what I like to do: turn something relatively insipid like a BBQ, and turn it into something entertaining! Some of you may know this lady as none other than Nikki B. She's funny, easy going, up for anything, and luckily for me, willing to sit idle while I crawl around taking pictures. Let her know what you think! (via the 'comments' button!)

Graffiti Greeting

You have to love the uncommon store foyers in Philadelphia. You just don't see this at the GAP in your local mall. Maybe it's just me, but I find these entranceway's far more interesting than the stores themselves.

Thundercats

So I went to Six Flags Theme Park over the weekend to spend a little time with my favorite 600lb tigers. The real trick with these guys is to maintain that fine line between being hungry enough to want to dive for your food, but not so hungry that they'll simply gobble the trainers up whole, a la Roy Horn. And you really can't appreciate just how huge these tigers are until you're right up on them with a mere 4 inches of Plexiglas between the two of you. Anybody notice the big cat theme going on here lately? Pure coincidence, I swear.

King of the Urban Jungle

This guy beckons at the entrance to some random shop in Center City. Not sure what else to say about this thing except that I love it, and I'm gonna try to figure out a way to eventually get this in my living room. All hail the King.

Hungry, Hungry Hip... I Mean Horses.

These poor horses...an entire football field worth of full, lush green grass for the taking. And what do they do? They eat wood. Or each other. Someone give these guys some hay! But seriously, there's some great horse photography to be found throughout Chesterfield, what with all the farms and green acres. What I'd really like to do is find someone who knows how to jump these things. That would make quite the photograph...
