Proposal In Central Park

Will you marry me?

...and she said "Yes"!

While I was strolling through Central Park with my father-in-law, we happened upon a couple hugging near the waters edge. I thought it was a Kodak moment but did not want to intrude. I heard the young lady say something to the effect of " are you kidding me!" as she looked at the ring on her finger. The bright guy that I am, (hug, ring on finger, smile on face) I ask if he just proposed and would they reenact it so I could capture it for them. Congratulations to Mike and Genevieve on their pending marriage. I wish you lots of love and happiness.

Motocross Pee Wee Rider

#51 Super Pee Wee Champion... in dad's eyes!

                            

I was shooting the pee wee race when a father with great pride and excitement said to me "#51" with his thumbs up. This little man is between four and six years old. He like his bigger competitors was giving it all he had. Cheers and fist pumps fly as the pee wee rider go by, sending dirt from the rear tires out a few feet as they accelerate through a corner or over a jump.

Love On The Fourth Of July

I wanted the foreground to be filled with people watching the fireworks this year. It was, until a large family group left leaving a big space on the lawn. This was annoying but work to my advantage. With a big burst of pyrotechnics it  help light the silhouette of a young couple sitting in front of me. Awe, summer love! I hope you watched fireworks with someone you love. A special thanks to all the men and women who serve/served our country. God Bless America.

D800 For The Weekend

Original file size was 18.3MB, JPG Fine. The RAW file size would be huge! Nikon D800 with a 14-24mm f/2.8 lens. F/18, 1/100 sec., ISO 200.

Original file size was 27.2 MB, JPG Fine. Again the RAW file would be enormous! Nikon D800 with a 80-400mm f/4.5-5.6 lens. F/8, 1/200 sec., ISO100.

A special thanks to Nikon for sponsoring the Antelope Island event and the use of the D800 and a few lens. I love it when they come to town. The D800 was made for landscapes, portrait and wedding photographers. The 36 mega pixels render a file that is just unbelievable. I was told the video was stunning as well, though I did not try it.

Special thanks to my son for spinning the fire and not getting burned!

f/2.8, 20 seconds, ISO 100, wide angle lens, and tripod
