Life is busy at the moment, teaching out in California at Pacific Grove – one of my 2015 Photography and Digital Painting Workshops with Karen Burns.

So far the weather has been lovely, not very warm but sunny and any place that I can walk on the beach brings a smile to my face…

Today we completed our 3 day beginner portion of the Corel and Photoshop Painting session and tomorrow we begin with our Intermediate Students… it’s all going well…. very very well indeed!

No shortage of good images to shoot as you can see – including some live Starfish and Anemone’s…..!

Aerial Dancing with Ayla Claypool

February 10, 2015 Filed inAerial Dance,Dance,North Carolina,Photography,Photoshop

blog_10-Feb-2015Yesterday saw my camera out and about and photographing the lovely Ayla Claypool.  Most of these images are posted on Facebook, but for those of you who prefer the old Bloggy standard, I am re-posting here…

The out of the camera shots were pretty neat but then of course….. I had to “play” with a couple and do something different…. I’ve been so busy lately, editing images from recent shoots and doing prep work for Pacific Grove , that it was nice to spend a bit of time just muckin’ around in Photoshop!

I’ve had the chance to photograph some lovely young ladies this week… the first of whom is “Emma”.

She was kind enough to continue my explorations with Long Exposure … dash …. multiple exposure style work which has become a part of a series that I am putting together for exhibition, along with some  “regular” kind of images.

My “in the studio” photographic journey continues to be both fun and challenging ….. figuring out how to light my subjects to achieve the image in my mind’s eye….and still do the models justice!
