My mother doesn't like this image, but I liked it the moment I saw it on the LCD. She doesn't consider it flattering, but I think it's beautiful.
I just got a SB-600 Speedlight the day before I shot this. This flash rocks.

While waiting for the sun to set, it ducked beneath the clouds and I got some direct sunlight. Not much to look at for silhouettes or cloud color, but the side lighting was almost magical.

Sitting here with an icepack on my shoulder thinking about how I'd rather be out shooting. Oh well... there's PhotoShop to play with.
This is quite possibly my best work. And the funny thing is... I pulled it out of a pile of older stuff. Kinda makes me wonder if I have anything else buried on my hard-drive that's worth working on. That, or I just got lucky.

This is probably the best picture I've ever taken of my daughter. The conversion to black and white really improves, I think.

I took this last year while visiting Red Rock Canyon with my family. Not bad for a point and shoot, Fuji S5200.

BW treatment of this image. Toying with some DPS methods for converting color images to black and white.

Used a Fuji S5200.
