A page from the past……….
As I get older I get more and more nostalgic, amongst other things. So a few years ago Cheryl bought me a small metal, table top, replica motor scooter because it reminded me of the one I rode in high school. It was about 12″ long and 7″ tall. I decided to bring it into…

Beautiful setting in Roxbury CT
After a long afternoon of shooting barns the sun was setting nicely for Cheryl and I. If you look past the tall silo you can see that the landscape goes on as far as the eye can see. Another beautiful barn setting in the gorgeous town of Roxbury CT. Photographed with A Sony A7RII 42.4…

Another old barn in gorgeous Roxbury CT
Another address on our list for Cheryl and I as we went barn hopping during a gorgeous spring afternoon in Roxbury CT. Home to only around 2300 residents, with little commercial development and a lot of farm land, this journey was a true pleasure. I decided to take in all the beautiful stone work in…

Well kept barn on the side of the driveway……….
This barn is located just adjacent to the main home that is on the right side of the driveway out of the picture. It’s obvious that the homeowners have done a good job keeping it in tip top shape. Photographed with a Sony A7RII and a Sony 24-105 F4 lens at 37 mm. 1/60th, f11,…

Old white barn in Roxbury CT

Picture perfect!
First on our list of barns to photograph this Saturday afternoon in April was this absolutely pristine barn in Woodbury CT. We chase barns and we’ve seen a lot of them but few will stack up to the maintenance that this barn has seen over the years. It was so well kept that I almost…

Miniature Cops and Robbers, vintage style
Since, like most folks these days, I’m stuck at home almost 24/7. So I’m having to switch direction from my typical barn photography to table top photography. This image reflects my first attempt at forced perspective miniature figurine photography. The scene was photographed in the area of Ludlow MA if memory serves me best. However,…

The Camera Man
This little fella was hand made of felt and wood by my Mother 15-20 years ago. She’s the insanely talented acrylics painter in the family but she went through a spell where she hand made beautiful pieces like this. He’s always been one of my very favorite pieces of photography chotzkie. Mom gave it to…
