Sorry the posts have been so sparse lately. I've just been WAY busy :-)

Here's one from the wedding I shot this past weekend to tide you over.

Cleveland National Air Show

Went up to Burke Lake Airport this Labor Day Weekend (well, Sunday) for the Cleveland National Air Show. I was really bummed at first that I would not have a 200mm lens of some sort to shoot with. Sometime around Thursday or Friday, though, I just trusted in the fact that composition and framing would win over super zooming. Out of the 1600+ shots I snapped (I know, right?!?!), I came up with about 150 that I was really proud of. The full album can be found on my Facebook page here . I’ve put a handful of the pictures that I’m really pleased with. Please keep in mind that I went with a mission to get some great shots, but in between the demonstrations, I found myself transported back to when I was about 8 yrs old and my neighbor would take me to the Dayton Air Show and I saw the Thunderbirds for the very first time. In between that childlike fascination and the scream of afterburners, I found that I had a great time AND got some pix I’m happy with.

Sorry I’m Not Home Right Now…

…I’m walking in a spider’s web. So, as I was getting ready to head out to a friend’s house to watch the Buckeye’s game, I looked out the window and saw what looked like cotton candy on a tree out back. So, I had to risk missing the kickoff to get these pix. The web was about 1ft from side to side (I suck at math, so you can figure out the diameter). The spider that made it went up to the branch above (And he blended in pretty darn well) I was pretty happy with how they came out. Amazing that something that is just instinctive to the spider actually looks pretty beautiful, too. Rock on spider,rock on. -ATS

Little House In The Country

Another trip to Dan’s today afforded me another opportunity to brush up on my ‘rural landscape’ photography before the photo-shoot in KY that Dad and I are taking this fall. Once again a faulty PC was the cause for the trip and as luck would have it, I had to reformat a 200GB hard drive. Plenty of time to snap some shots of the awesome puffy clouds that had been taunting me the whole way up to his house. Dan was a bit surprised, I think, at how the last batch came out and he asked for some shots including the house. No problem-I love the way his house is laid out, so it was cool to shoot it. Here’s the pick of the litter (or the pix of the litter, if you will). A telephoto would have done this shot more justice. I’ll probably re-shoot this when I get one (or borrow one from Steve). The road leading up to Dan’s house is framed by two Acorn trees (at least I think that’s what they were). And hey-I just read about using natural ‘frames’…yay me!
