Flowers, Lighthouses and Sunsets

If I were asked to give advice to someone just getting into sellling photos, I ‘d offer these three words, Flowers, Lighthouses and Sunsets. It doesn’t seem to matter where I post these types of photos, they always seem to be amongst the top draws of the portfolio. I’d also stongly recommend a polarizing filter, but that for another post. So without further adieu, I present a few Flowers, Lighthouses and Sunsets…

So there you have it. Lets see if this post gets the attention like these images do in my portfolios.

Thanks for stopping by,

Symbolic Images

One of the things I’ve always enjoyed about photography is the symbolic nature of an image.  Generally speaking there aren’t any words describing what the photographer was trying to convey, occassionally there’ll be an image title and then just the image with it being up to the viewer to see “it”  and possibly add their own interpretation.

Along these lines I’m posting a few of the more  symbolic images I’ve acquired with the Canon EOS 40D this spring…

Broken Promises

Connected Hearts

A Path Less Traveled

These are just a few of my favorite symbolic images I’ve taken over the last couple of years. Feel free to comment on what you see in them.

New Canon Eos 40D images

Back in August I started getting back into my photography hobby with a nice point and shoot camera, the Olympus SP-560UZ. Having totally enjoyed the experience I recently dove a little deeper into my hobby with the purchase of a new Canon Eos 40D.

It’s been awhile since I posted any thumbs, so I figured I’d sneak a few of my favorite recent shots in tonight. Hope you like them. (Click thumbnails to enlarge.)

If you like any of the photos you see on this site please feel free to visit my albums with additional photos over at Shutterpoint. Comments are also welcome here on the blog.

Smhphotos Stock Photo Compilation

I’ve had the new Olympus SP-560UZ for about 3 weeks now and by last count have snapped around 1200 photos with it.

After getting to know the camera a bit I realized I really liked some of the photos I’d taken and decided to spend a few bucks and sign up with the micro stock photography service Shutterpoint. I liked that I not only get space to upload photos, there is also an active community that provides ratings and feedback on your pictures.  Who knows, maybe if I get lucky I’ll actually sell a few and that leads me to tonight’s post.

I’ve decided to try a “compilation” post with all the photos I’ve submitted so far and see what if any feedback I get. Hope you enjoy as much as I enjoyed taking them. (Click thumbnails to enlarge.)

That’s about all I really have time for today. If you like any of the photos you see on this site please feel free to visit my albums over at Shutterpoint and comments are welcome here on the blog.

A few quick shots…

Had the opportunity to sneak in a few quick photos with the Olympus SP-560UZ over the last couple of days despite the hectic schedule. Have a little down time this morning so I figured I’d update my photoblog. The following are a combination of creative and still life photos quickly captured on a sunny afternoon. Hope you enjoy. (Click thumbnails for larger images.)

That’s about all I really have time for today. I hope to sneak in another post or two this week, but it might be the weekend or next week before I get to again. If you like any of the photos you see here please feel free to visit my albums over at Shutterpoint and comments are welcome here on the blog.
