New Gallery: Meditation

Meditation6

Meditation is part two  of a two – set companion piece entitled “Contemplation and Meditation” taken on hike through Red Rocks Canyon on the outskirts of Las Vegas in the Mojave Desert.  When you mention Las Vegas to most people the think of the famed Las Vegas Strip.  Most people miss the breathtaking beauty of the area around the city, especially in the desert.  Red Rocks Canyon is one of the largest hiking areas in the Vegas area.  Breathtakingly beautiful, the park varies from the amazing red rock formations you will see in this gallery to the mountains and sequoia cactus located around the park.  I highly suggest to anyone visiting the Las Vegas area to check out Red Rocks Canyon.

Coffee Works Open Mic

20100720_openmic_005-copy We recently shot the first of hopefully many Open Mic nights at Coffee Works, my favorite local coffee shop, which I honestly love mostly for the great live music.  Coffee Works features some of South Jersey best act and Open Mic is a great way to see a lot of them.  They also feature some great nationally known acts such as John Eddie, Jeffrey Gaines and Stephen Forbert. 20100720_openmic_161-copy

Two New Galleries: Rush Hour, New York City and ShadowNLight

This week we uploaded two new galleries, Rush Hour, New York City and ShadowNLight.

Rush Hour, NYC was taken on a an afternoon walk through Mid-Town Manhattan on a cold, overcast day.  The weather and the clouds made the decision to shoot black and white easy.


ShadowNLight_011



ShadowNLight is a series taken of my cat, Shadow.  The late day sun had formed a perfect ray of light into my living room, but as the day went and the light moved, Shadow refused to do so, she was just too comfortable.  One of the pictures from this series was selected picture of the week for July 19th.
